Five Filipinos were arrested in Thailand before they could board their flight at Don Mueang airport after police found a stolen diamond necklace in their luggage, reports said.
report on Bangkok Post said the Filipinos were believed to have worked as a gang to steal the necklace worth THB300,000 (more than P400,000) at the Bangkok Gems and Jewellery Fair in Muang Thong Thani, Nonthaburi.
Poramin Thaharian, the owner of the booth where the necklace was stolen from, contacted police after he noticed the necklace missing from a display cabinet around 6 p.m. on September 7, a report on Asia One said.
