"Meanwhile, the millionaire parents of the two suspects, who are brothers, have spoken to the New Zealand press about the situation, which you can read here. In brief, they stated they were shocked by the situation, had obtained the services of a lawyer, and described the suspects as “[b]Just two kids on vacation[/b]”, stressing that both men had families and children of their own who were deeply concerned about them.

General Surachet has informed the press that he has instructed Major General Songprod Sirisukkha, the Immigration Region 6 Commander, to cancel the visas of the two New Zealand men in question and prohibit their entry into Thailand in the future. The Chalong Police Chief, Colonel Eakkarat Plaiduang, revealed that these two individuals are currently being taken to the Phuket Provincial Court today (March 18th).

The two suspects are facing charges related to robbery, assaulting or resisting an officer on duty, and driving without a valid license. Despite allegedly attempting to bribe the police to avoid further charges, their efforts were unsuccessful.

The Bangkok Post reported that the Days initially sped up before stopping, allegedly shouting at the police officer who recorded their actions on his mobile phone.

At that point, it was alleged, the New Zealand tourists attempted to block the recording in an altercation that turned physical and led to a shot being fired from the officer’s automatic pistol during a scuffle for control of the weapon.

 

Seems the cop pulled his weapon, for what is a misdemeanour, and with a language barrier  and the RTP reputation  these guys simply defended themselves,  just look at the video, the NZ guy is only restraining the cop, who bit off more than he could chew.

Should have stopped simple,  to many QUINCY'S on this site,  think you all know it all,  you know FA,  all guessing,  he did this he did that,  I know this for sure,  thai lady took the video,  if you understand thai,  she's shouting to let the cop go.  15 years each,  

And we can clearly hear one guy say the cop attack them... you obviously wish to take the cop's side, as RTP cops are so honest  and trustworthy... law abiding citizens.

Me,.. well I wasn't there.

It's the Thai norm... build it, then forget it, then come up with multiple excuses why it is deteriorating.

I do like seeing more "mitigation, partnership and collaboration" with PM Stettha Thavisin's government than ever seen during PM Prayut's government that was an engine of disorder.

huh?

Um, it's only words, just like the previous PM... words do nothing, these problems have been known for a long time, ... one day we might see some effective action, but I won't hold my breathe.

Do they really have a problem with size

A couple of years back, a Thai professor, did some research, average Thai penis 4.5 inches.

"If think if I lived in Phuket I'd get annoyed at the amount of Police checkpoints wasting my time with so many checks because they're looking to profit from foreigners. "

I live here, am a foreigner and hardly ever get stopped. Maybe it makes sense to know a place before posting about it in stead of relying on social media for an opinion.

I get stopped often, love seeing the disappointment   on the cop's face when I pull our my thai licences.

At the end of the day, there are lots of western men who come here and are unaware that this behaviour is normal in some places, but not others.

They apologised, but did it again... maybe they thought that they were ok to do it to different ladies, and they had no idea that this was not Nana Plaza.

 

The world of social media nowadays where someone does or says something wrong and is all of a sudden a wanted fugitive is quite worrying.

 

What about all the scams in bars and taxi drivers ripping people off?

That's "acceptable " thai behaviour.

Yes It's a shame but Thailand is a small player on the world wide stage and shining a light on other countries failings only invites the same criticism upon themself.(those criticising are just as bad)

Threatening to freeze someone's overseas accounts, often gets results.

If you book an hotel but decide to cancel at the last minute, you lose any deposit you have paid because the hotel could have trouble filling the room at short notice.

Why not have a similar system for these taxis, when you pay a deposit when you book, refundable if you cancel within a certain, reasonable length of time. 

In Australia, using Uber, you pay when you book, via your card.

Why are foreigners obessed with ladyboys?

Is it because they can't  have sex with them in their own countries?

What's your point.
