Why arrest someone over this, its not as if she is going to flee. Its a fraud case do they put people in jail before courtcase in other countries ?

Certainly in my country you would be arrested and charged. 

Whether the case go's to trial is generally down to the CPS.

I'm answer to your question, yes, the authorities can hold you in jail especially for cases such as murder

The UK won't automatically refuse her visa after so many stays, but on each and every application she will need to satisfy the decision maker that she is still a genuine tourist and that her main centre of life is in Thailand.

 

That said, if she stayed with you in the UK for prolonged periods on each trip the decision maker could suspect that she is effectively living in the UK through frequent or successive visits, and refuse the visa, worst case scenario would be that a Border Force Officer could suspect the same and deny her entry. Both scenarios are not that common, but they could happen.

 

Has she considered applying for another long-term Standard Visitor visa if she intends to visit the UK regularly, she's already had a two year visa, maybe a five year visa, though of course the fee is higher and wouldn't be refunded if the application was refused, or a visa with a shorter validity issued.

That's my worry. I suppose if she did get refused we could always apply for a residency visa but it's not something we both want. I might apply for the 5 year visa in the hope that they see we're married but as you say they might see this as a circumvention around the system.

Good point,well made.

 

Something about which the Tories in UK promised to take action.......yet another broken promise.

They did. They introduced the sugar tax in 2018.

I am married to a Thai national. My wife has visited the UK twice. First time on a 6 month short stay and secondly on a 2 year short stay. We have no plans for her to live in the UK and I am planning to retire to Thailand in 5 years. Can I continue with short stay visas every year or will UK immigration refuse after 2 or 3 visa applications?

Open now drinking a beer with the GF in Soi 4 Nana tonight.

I don't think it's the bars per se they are worried about., more the gogos and nightclubs. That's how I read it anyhow 

So just to be clear, my wife who is in the UK on a 2 year short-stay can travel to Northern Ireland with no additional paperwork?

"He said he had an important engagement upcountry and had no time and also couldn't contact the victim because he couldn't get a signal on his phone. "

Also a big liar , these so called VIP's think they can get away with anything,

problem is they do....he's just the kind to make an example of , give him 

2 years for his various crimes, AND make sure he goes to jail , until they

start doing this , nothing is going to change.

regards worgeordie

They don't THINK they can get away with these things, they Do!! 

He also said, however, that public reaction to his allegedly improper act is tarnishing the image of the university and, for the benefit of all concerned, he is taking full responsibility by quitting as the rector with immediate effect, or when the university council has appointed an acting rector to replace him.

I wonder how long this will take ?

Well, when you are too dumb to run the country the only thing that's left is to destroy any potential opposition. Kill, lock up, slander, etc...  And it has been gathering momentum for the last few months, hasn't?

 

Yep and not to forget the sheer hypocrisy of it all.

Amazing how many challengers to the government get put to bed...

If true on the other hand then he should be arrested and put to trial.

Keep up for the love of god, Wise confirmed recently the reasons for transfer are important again, threads on it, look it up

On that note. I send money back to the Mrs Chelseafan as "family living expenses" or something like that. Is she liable to pay tax if her account is audited as that could be treated as an income ?
 

We all know what happened...

2 hours ago, it is what it is said:

 

if you know that for a fact what have you done about it? if you are ignoring it then you are complicit.

 

please pass on the evidence you have to the RTP, as well as informing the police you should contact the Safe Child Thailand charity

Oh do behave. What realistically can any tourist do. Go to the police? Sure, at the very  best they may pay a visit to the bar after giving them a heads up they are on their way.

You know the unwritten rules of Thailand - never get involved.

Even if they did follow up in a professional manner there are plenty of other underage girls working in the bar, ie those under 18. It's the tip of the iceberg

Do you actually know that, or just saying it with nothing to back it up? Such cases in what is essentially a bar area aimed largely at foreigners are extremely rare these days and have been for many years.

Yes I have seen it and it happens more often than you think. In most cases the underage girls stay in the bar and mop floors or assist but i have seen some girls who will go with guys

That makes more sense. The article made it sound like it was out in the open.

 

 

“Too many” is a bit of an exaggeration.  Of course there will be a few with fake IDs and using there sister’s ID (same as anywhere in the world), but bars check IDs. Too many overage girls is my opinion here!

One is too many.
