]There was a warrant out for his arrest by the court for failing to comply with previous orders and that is why he attended the police station for bail so no they don't ' leave the country ' because their egos don't allow it and they think they can bluff their way out, and on many occasions, they can.
At the moment they are still gathering statements and information and deciding on further action because not only are there criminal charges involved, the situation is further complicated by the fact that he is a senior police officer, so that comes into play as well.
It is not like a member of the public that just jumps bail and disappears.
You mean like the member of the public Red Bull heir, "Boss"? Sorry, no, he was never arrested in the first place, so he couldn't skip bail! Just "got out while the going was good"!

I suggest you re-read the posts above and find out where he has been recently and what he did yesterday!
Thank you for your advice, and things are a bit clearer now! Pity the headlines and the subject matter of the post sometimes leave you a bit in "limbo" i.e. the headline to this post says quite clearly:- investigators sought an arrest warrant for Surachate “Big Joke” Hakparn, Deputy National Police Chief of Thailand, following three previously issued summonses.
The post by "Archadian" is very helpful, and fortunately seems more aware of the current situation than some of the media!
Interesting times ahead!

The last the rest of us heard was that he had handed himself in.
Deputy national police chief, Pol Gen Surachate Hakparn, reported to the enquiry officer at Taopoon police station on Tuesday afternoon, to acknowledge the money laundering charges filed against him. He was granted bail after about four hours of questioning.Thanks for the info Barry!

The headline:- "Arrest warrant issued for Surachate “Big Joke” Hakparn"
Last paragraph:- The outcome of this legal request remains to be seen, as the court has not yet announced its decision. (regarding the "request for an arrest warrant")
Sooo, - has the arrest warrant been issued or not? I suspect not!
Anyway, last I heard was that "Big Joke" was "on a short holiday" in England! Hmmm!!! Somehow I think that he may be there for a while!
"Sad" and "Confused" - I'm a bit confused myself - has an arrest warrant been issued or not?
Also a bit "Sad" that he was allowed to go abroad on holiday when I am sure that he knew the turmoil that was surrounding his situation!
Anyway, let's see if he does a "Thaksin" and rides out the storm while out of the country!

Whether or not the Burmese did this crime will forever be lost. But i do recall the case about how the Thai man disappeared in the middle of the night on an unscheduled boat trip ending him in Bangkok with reliable witnesses.
"She would not be dead if she had remained faithful and was not off with that man."
Not another one! GOAT says she was unfaithful and got a verbal slapping for it.
She was not "off with that man"! They left the bar SEPARATELY - Hannah leaving the bar before he did.
Another disgusting victim blaming comment! Are you of a particular religious denomination?

and where did 'EVERYBODY' get their info from... The Samui times?
do you know the running man footage cctv footage came from a family member of the person you guys accuse? hardly think they'd incriminate their nephew aye, but thats been totally left out of all the sensationalised Samui times stories.Hang on! "You guys?" I am not accusing anybody of anything - I merely pointed out a comment by the cop in charge at the time, which to me implied that the investigation was not exactly off to an impartial start.
And I stand by my original comment which was to say that "EVERYBODY knows who did it" is a ridiculous statement to make!

Hannah had a boyfriend back in England who could not make the trip.
She had only met this David fella there in Koh Tao.
Terrible price to pay but if she had of been a faithful girlfriend she would still be alive today.
RIP
"........if she had of been a faithful girlfriend she would still be alive today."
You ARE a troll! I had my doubts, but not any more - as another poster has already asked - how do you know she was unfaithful? Should she be unable to talk to another man on holiday because she has a boyfriend "back home"?
(And by the way, your comment should read "...........if she had been a faithful girlfriend......" No need for the "of" word - it's even worse than "should of" instead of "should have" or "should've")

This tragic event was covered in depth at the time, and now all the armchair detectives and keyboard warriors are now back on the case.
Personally, I think that there were too many flaws in the case that it should have been thrown out of court, but one thing that I remember from the original investigation was the comment by the main policeman in charge:-
"NO THAI COULD HAVE DONE THIS!"
Make of that what you will, but the way I read it is that "No Thai will ever get convicted of this crime!"

I'm not ken on Russians either, but:-

Somebody gave my post above a "Confused" emoticon, but now I am confused!
I was replying to a post that was implying that the culprit was a Russian, and he should be deported and shipped off to the Ukraine:-
"No doubts , it must be a Russian putinoid:).
Deport these scumbags to Russia. -their pseudo tzar Putin is so eager to mobilize them for criminal war in Ukraine!"
My post was merely to point out that the culprit was not a Russian, or other type of foreigner, but Thai!

That's the point he was trying to make. It's probably helped to increase the tourist numbers but what are the character of those people? Personally I don't care for the backpacker hippy pot smokers and I know many Thai people agree with me.
"Personally I don't care for the backpacker hippy pot smokers......"
I suppose you would rather have the drunken slobs that stagger about ranting and raving and wanting to have a fight with anyone and everyone?
Or the recent "visa free" visitors that seem intent on "bad behaviour" of all kinds - not just violence, but theft and cheating on their bills etc etc etc?
I think for the most part, the "backpacker hippy pot smokers" are pretty harmless, and would rather chill out on a beach and enjoy the sunsets, causing trouble for no one - indeed "keeping themselves to themselves, man!"

"Could it be an April fools day announcement?" On April 2nd?
And "we need more tourists/passengers' equals more revenue/income..." so we start charging them more? That'll bring them flocking in!

They were informed they were in the wrong and therefore returned and paid the bill.
Also, before we all gather for the stoning, we haven't heard the flip side of the argument, or aren't you interested?
They had to be told that they were in the wrong?!!!! They had to be told that saying they'd paid their bill and hadn't was wrong?!!!
And they even had the gall to say that they didn't think that there would be a camera in that position! :-
"The foreigners agreed to pay and apologised for their actions. They said they did not expect there to be a CCTV camera at that angle."
And you really think there is a flip side to "this argument"?
My interpretatation? "It's a fair cop, guv'nor!"

"Here we go, here we go, here we go!" was a warning that there is a "Brit Basher"/troll about.
"Football's coming home!" Is a natural continuation of the above chant, or an impossible dream - take your pick (sorry, off topic, I'll get my coat!)

Is it too hard to wear a mask to save the lives of the elderly Thai people.
You foreigners come over here, spreading your diseases, often STDs, without a care in the world for anyone but yourself.
People like you are the reason that these laws MUST be enforced on all of us.
That you had covid and I never did is just more proof of that.
Dont miss the midday update. They will be providing English subtitles for the entitled farang who refuses to learn Thai language and makes the Thais speak English to them.
At first I thought you were a troll - now I think you are just trying to get your "replies" tally up! But you do it well!

Fair enough too.
It was the farangs that spread it last time and tried to blame the Chinese.
The Thais kept it under control well.
They should target the farangs, especially the Brits.

Quite bizarre and once again the "dirty unwashed foreigners" are being singled out for "blame" - especially looking at the top story running side by side with this one!
"COVID-19 outbreak at Prachuap prison: 79 confirmed infections"
I suppose some "dirty unwashed foreigner" visiting the prison caused the outbreak?
But there again, maybe somebody at AN has been taking advantage of the date? Hmmm? "APRIL 1st"!

There are a lot of Thai agriculture workers over there. I'm wondering if this soldier may have had some Thai friends, may have worked with some Thais before having to join the war. Perhaps he just meant to show solidarity with Thais, who have hostages being held by the maniacal terrorists/Hamas. Maybe one of his Thai friends sent it to him. But, no matter what official story they come up with, I don't think anyone will believe it. In the end, it's pretty stupid to make a fuss of it. It's just an ordinary soldier, not like he's some sort of high ranking officer making an official statement. But people love making a major commotion out of anything these days.
But
peopleThais love making a major commotion out of anything these days. Even made a "drama out of a crisis" when an Eastern lady had to pee in the street because of a lack of toilet facilities in a certain Thai holiday resort! -
"At the request of Thailand, the Israeli government is urgently examining a photo depicting an Israeli soldier holding the Thai national flag in front of piles of debris.
Looks like it's in front of a tank to me!

They didn't use a laser gun to stun him did they? I would never have known!:-
"CCTV footage from the mayhem and chaos on Tuesday at a city centre hotel in Phuket. (Inset) Mr Tolstov attacked people, including security guards at the hotel. Finally, police used a taser gun to stun and collapse the marauding Russian."
"Rabid Russian rampage in Phuket. Tourist tasered by police after hotel havoc. A drunken Russian tourist, Mr Aleksandr Tolstov, triggered chaos in Phuket, assaulting multiple people at a hotel. Three officers intervened but had to resort to a taser to subdue him. Now facing criminal charges."{
"A Russian tourist is facing criminal charges and is being held by Karon Police after a furious outburst of violence in the centre of Phuket on Tuesday. The crazed Russian man, wearing nothing but summer trunks tore into security staff and later police at a local hotel. Finally, police were forced to use a Taser gun to incapacitate the rabid young man and prevent further conflict.""There has been another incident of outrageous behaviour by a foreigner in Phuket. On Tuesday, police were forced to use a Taser gun to overpower a young Russian man who attacked multiple people at a hotel."
All within the same article/post!!!
But yet another Russian "behaving badly" - well the Thai Government wanted them - now they got them - warts and all! 🙂

Smokin’ scuffle: Foreigner’s taxi tantrum goes viral in Phuket
in Phuket News
Posted
The reports on "taxi bad behaviour " seems to have gone full circle as the apparent campaign against farangs seems to be gaining pace.
The reports used to be centred on taxi drivers trying to overcharge, dropping people off in the middle of "nowhere" due to a disputed increase in fare, refusing to put the meter on etc etc etc.
It is fairly common knowledge that Anutin has got it in for "dirty unwashed foreigners", and now there seems to be a concerted effort to find any misdemeanour by foreigners, and publish it in the media. (I can not recall any recent reports of "bad behaviour" by Thais, but I am sure that it happens.)
All a bit bizarre when the Government and TAT are desperate to attract more tourists to LOS!
