They receive continued training and work under a Manual of Procedures that stipulates exactly what they are expected to do and what they can’t do in their time of duty.

An Italian Tourist was drugged and robbed in his Central Pattaya Hotel room on Tuesday. The unconscious occupant of room number 302 on the 3rd floor of the Classic Inn Hotel on the Central Pattaya Road, was discovered by hotel cleaners. Mr. Vito Giannuzzi aged 69 was lying naked on the bed and was due to check-out before midday. He was found just before 2pm and a receptionist told Police that just before 2.45am, Mr. Giannuzzi was seen returning to his room with a Thai woman, thought to be aged around 45. The Hotel did not keep a copy of her Thai ID card and the Hotel’s CCTV system was malfunctioning at the time of the incident therefore only a vague description of the woman was given to Police. An empty wallet was seen in the room and Police suspect its contents were stolen by the woman, although this cannot be confirmed for now as Mr. Giannuzzi is unable to communicate with Police due to the effects of, what is thought to be, sleeping tablets which are thought to have been placed inside a glass of water. Police will follow-up the case with the victim as soon as he recovers from the effects of the drugs he was administered.
