Police in Phuket, Thailand arrested four British nationals after an American tourist was ambushed on his motorbike and robbed of a Audemars Piguet watch worth almost £100K

The attack, which was caught on dashcam and shared on social media, took place on Layan Soi 7 in Cherng Talay district, Thalang.

A blue car struck the victim’s motorcycle before two armed men leapt out, assaulted him, and demanded the watch.

The victim, a lawyer in his 40s, told police he was hit with the handle of a knife during the ordeal and feared for his life.

The victim Mr Iyun (pictured) thanked Thai police for ‘swift and efficient’ response.

Bystanders came to his aid and helped him reach Cherng Talay Police Station, where he filed a report.

Following a review of CCTV footage, police launched a manhunt and today arrested four British nationals: 26 year old Hussain Meer, 25 year old Mir Wayne Carew, 25 year old Yanne Sarkawt, and 27 year old Malique Kai Walters.

Officers seized two guns, ammunition, three vehicles, and the stolen Audemars Piguet luxury watch.

It is revealed that one of the men was Top Boy actor Malique Kai Walters and played the character of Tunde in the 4th season of the hit series.

Walters also tried his hand at rapping under the name ‘Bookey’ and would amass millions of views per music video independently.

His most popular song features incarcerated drill rapper DigDat who is currently in prison for attempted murder and firearm offences.
