Chinese man files fake theft complaint against Thai motorbike taxi rider in Phuket
Xing Jingwei, a 38-year-old Chinese man, filed a fake theft complaint against a Thai motorbike taxi rider in Phuket after a fare dispute. The rider was accused of snatching Xing's bag containing 20,000 baht, but the rider claimed they only had a fare dispute due to a language barrier. Xing later confessed to faking the theft, but it's unclear if he faced punishment for false reporting.
