This is the moment a teenage tourist was arrested at a Thai airport for allegedly stealing another passenger's watch from a security tray - with cops today launching a blistering attack on his 'whinging mother'.

Loukas Rainger, 18, from Rainger, New Zealand, is said to have been seen on CCTV 'clearly intending to steal' the Swatch timepiece while carry-on bags were being checked at the Surat Thani International Airport in southern Thailand on July 3.
