Ex-Thai Premier
Robbed at McDonald's
Thailand's globe-trotting deposed leader, Thaksin Shinawatra,
garnered an academic honor by visiting Moscow last week, but lost
thousands of dollars and his passport when he stopped at a
McDonald's in the city center.
Thaksin, who has been living in exile since a coup last year ousted
him as prime minister, had entrusted his briefcase to an aide
sitting at a nearby table as they had a meal Monday at the
McDonald's restaurant on the Arbat, said his lawyer, Noppadol
Pattama, in Bangkok.
When the party got up to leave, they found that Thaksin's
briefcase, with his passport and about $9,200 in dollars and
rubles, had been snatched, he said.
Kommersant reported Saturday that the amount of cash in the
briefcase was closer to $20,000. It said the briefcase had also
contained a digital video camera and a digital camera.
