9jatriot: You are black so ask yourself, "do I have the proclivity to be a thief?" Ask again, "am I instinctively drawn towards what isn't mine?" Your comment on the article was already quite fantastic until your last paragraph. Why do Africans, including apparently intelligent ones, questions their skin color? In this same planet where Hitler and Vlad were both absolutely evil and where Madoff etc were absolutely corrupt and all being white people...why would Maina's case even remotely lead you to question your skin color? 7 Likes |

The theft of precious jewels from a Saudi palace in
1989 set off a chain of killings and a diplomatic
crisis that continues to this day. Now, in a rare
interview, the man behind the theft tells his story.
The Saudi prince and his wife were away on holiday
for three months, and the thief knew this was the
time to strike.
Kriangkrai Techamong was running a significant
risk. Stealing could be punished with amputation in
Saudi Arabia, but Kriangkrai's was no ordinary theft
- he had his eye on dozens of precious gems and
jewels owned by his employer Prince Faisal, the
eldest son of King Fahd of Saudi Arabia.
As a cleaner, Kriangkrai had come to know every
corner of Prince Faisal's palace. And he had learned
that three of the four safes containing the prince's
jewels were regularly left unlocked. It was too good
an opportunity to miss: he was struggling with
gambling debt he had built up on the site where
the palace workers lived, and this was a golden
chance to flee the repressive country where he
could no longer bear to live.
One evening, he made up an excuse to be inside
the palace after dark. He waited until other staff had
left, and sneaked into the prince's bedroom. He
picked some jewels and stuck them to his body
using duct tape. He also stored gems inside
cleaning equipment, including vacuum bags.
By the end, he had taken almost 30kg (66lbs) of
loot, valued at close to $20m. Among the pilfered
items, Saudi officials would later say, were gold
watches and several plump rubies. 1 Like |

That night, Kriangkrai hid the valuables all over the
palace, in places he knew they would not be
discovered. And then, over a month, he moved
them and hid them in the middle of a large cargo
delivery he was sending home to Thailand.
By the time the theft was discovered, Kriangkrai
had already fled to his native Thailand, with his
cargo leaving a few days before him. But the thief
faced another challenge: how to get the stolen
goods through Thai customs. All items imported
from abroad had to be checked as they entered the
country. But because he knew Thai officials could
not resist a bribe, Kriangkrai stuffed an envelope
with money and a note and put it in his cargo. The
note said his cargo had pornographic material
inside, and he would prefer it not to be searched.
His plan worked, but Kriangkrai could evade justice
for only so long. In January 1990, he was arrested
at his home in Thailand's northern Lampang
province after the Thai police were alerted by their
Saudi counterparts.
The gems and jewels - some of which he had kept,
some of which he had sold - were retrieved soon
afterwards. But some time in between their retrieval
and their return to Riyadh, another crime occurred.
Saudi officials said about 80% were missing, and
many of those that had been returned were fake.
Then, photographs started circulating of the wife of
one senior Thai official wearing a necklace with an
uncanny resemblance to one of the missing items 1 Like |

It was the disappearance of one piece in particular
that caused consternation, however: a rare 50-carat
blue diamond the size of an egg.
Only about 1 in 10,000 diamonds has a distinct
body colour, and of those, just a tiny minority are
blue, ensuring they are among the rarest and most
valuable in the world. Their distinct colour comes
from the faint traces of boron inside, an element
present when the diamond was formed up to
600km (370 miles) below the Earth's surface.
Many of the blue diamonds in circulation today
come from one source - the Cullinan mine near
Pretoria in South Africa - but the origin story of the
Saudi blue diamond is unclear and no known
photographs of it exist. 1 Like |

The case might have ended with Kriangkrai jailed
for under three years and Saudi Arabia decrying the
disappearance of the prince's jewels, and the blue
diamond in particular. Instead, the investigation
took a bloody turn.
In early February 1990, two officials from the visa
section of the Saudi embassy in Bangkok were
driving towards the compound in the Thai capital.
About a half a mile from their destination, their car
was attacked by gunmen and both men were killed.
At about the same time, another gunman entered
the apartment of one of the men's colleagues and
shot him dead.
Weeks afterwards, a Saudi businessman,
Mohammad al-Ruwaili, was despatched to Bangkok
to investigate what might have happened to the
missing hoard. But he too was targeted - he was
kidnapped and, while his body has never been
found, he is widely believed to have been murdered.
Plenty of theories about the killings exist. According
to a diplomatic note written in 2010 by the deputy
chief of mission in the US embassy in Bangkok,
and later released by Wikileaks, the killings of the
three diplomats "almost certainly were part of a
Saudi feud with Hezbollah", the Lebanese Shia
Muslim militant group.
But one Saudi official in particular was clear about
who was responsible.
Mohammed Said Khoja, a Saudi diplomat of 35
years' experience, was sent to Bangkok soon after
the theft to oversee the investigation. After
expecting to be in Thailand for only three months,
he ended up staying for several years. 1 Like |

I do not know your story, but I was not basing my statement on just this one. And I cannot claim that all blacks are thieves and all whites are saints. But sometimes, we need to do some sort of soul searching. Look each other in the face and tell ourselves the truth. Anyway, we can open a thread for that kind of discuss on why even in the US, black populated areas seem to be a beehive of drugs, crime and murder, but let us stay on Maina and son for now. kjhova: 1 Like |
