Bangkok--1 Dec--Bumrungrad Hospital
The basic details of what appear to be the largest jewelry heist in recent history in Thailand were released to the BBB Network today and shed more light on the mysterious disappearance of a $350,000 dollar diamond ring from a top Bangkok hospital treatment room.
A Thai female national’s minor medical treatment on October 2 in one of Bumrungrad Hospital’s private treatment rooms on the hospital’s 15th floor turned into the most expensive hospital visit in her life as her expensive diamond ring somehow disappeared during her brief stay. She had removed the ring while in the private bathroom of the treatment room during a medical test and left the ring on the bathroom sink. When she returned to the bathroom from the treatment room 10 minutes later the ring was gone.
Since only medical personnel were present in the room at the time suspicion fell upon them but to date the Thai police have not been able to gain any information about the whereabouts of the ring. The ring’s owner and her husband have spoken with Bumrungrad Hospital officials but no details have yet been released as to the substance of these discussions.
Bumrungrad Hospital is widely considered to be the top hospital in Thailand and caters to many international clients as well as locals, claiming to serve one million patients a year with 40% of those coming from 190 countries around the world. The hospital was founded in 1980 and is the largest medical facility in Southeast Asia.
More details surrounding this mysterious case will be reported as they are brought to light during the continuing investigation by the BBB Network in Bangkok.
