| 2005-09-14 |
| A briefcase containing foreign banknotes, believed to be Iranian or Afghani currency worth more than three million baht, has been found at Hat Yai railway station. The black-leather briefcase was found on a passenger platform on Monday afternoon by cleaning woman Banjit Bunsiri, 31, a source said. Mahmoud, we have everything right? Ms Banjit opened the briefcase and was stunned to see it was stuffed with banknotes and other documents, the source said. She handed it to a station official, who later reported the discovery to Hat Yai railway police. Senior railway officials refused to discuss the matter. Fake Passports? Check Bomb Materials? Check Cash? Errr.... Mahmoud!! The source said the banknotes were believed to be Iranian or Afghani currency. If so, they would be worth about 3.5 million baht. Late last night, no one had claimed the briefcase. |
