An Indian tourist was assaulted and robbed by a woman and two ladyboys inside a central Pattaya hotel late on October 15, 2025. The attack left the victim and a hotel employee injured and police have launched an hunt to track down the suspects. The incident, which was caught on CCTV, has raised fresh concerns about tourist safety in the city.
According to police at Pattaya City Police Station, the Indian tourist, accompanied by a compatriot and a hotel employee, filed a report around 23:00 on October 15. They provided CCTV footage showing the group attack inside the hotel located in the Central Pattaya area.
Through a translator, the victim explained that earlier in the evening he had met a Thai woman aged about 25 to 30 while walking along the beach. After agreeing to meet her at his hotel room for 500 baht, she later demanded more money upon arrival. When he refused, the woman allegedly called two ladyboy accomplices, who arrived and together physically assaulted the tourist.
The suspects reportedly damaged property in the room before stealing 15,000 baht in cash and 25,000 Indian rupees. During the commotion, a hotel employee who heard the disturbance went to investigate but was met with verbal abuse and threats. The group shouted, “You’re not the owner of the hotel, stay out of it!” before chasing the staff member to the lobby.
The attackers then moved downstairs, where they continued their assault, tearing off a one-baht gold necklace, from the employee and striking the tourist with a metal object. The hotel worker managed to escape and alert colleagues as the group fled the scene. Once the situation calmed, the victims collected the CCTV evidence and immediately reported the crime to police.
Investigators from Pattaya Police Station have since reviewed footage from the hotel and surrounding area to identify the suspects. Police confirmed that the investigation is ongoing and that efforts are underway to locate the three individuals responsible. Authorities are expected to make arrests soon as they gather additional witness statements and digital evidence.
