Bangkok gang leader ran £6.5million supercar theft ring that stole Lamborghinis, Porsches and Range Rovers to order from UK dealerships and shipped them to Thailand By Elizabeth Haigh Published: 09:31, 31 October 2024 | Updated: 09:53, 31 October 2024 e-mail 2 View comments A Bangkok-based crime gang leader masterminded a supercar theft ring that saw £6.5 million of luxury vehicles stolen to order in the UK and shipped to Thailand .
Intarasak Techaterasiri, 40, who went by the alias Boy Unity, employed people in Britain to attend high-value car dealerships and purchase finance-to-buy vehicles which they had no intention of paying off. The cars were then shipped to Thailand and were destined to be sold at dealerships in the country for large amounts of money. But Techaterasiri's plot was foiled after port officials in Southampton seized two containers which held four stolen cars, and these were tracked back to him.
He is now awaiting trial in Thailand after at least 35 cars worth £6.5 million were sent to Thailand between 2016 and 2017 as part of the finance fraud. This week, 30 of the high-end cars were returned to the UK.
