Good putting people accused of non violent crimes in with those who are violent. Thailand never ceases to amaze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docshock13 Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 "In Pattaya alone, seven Chinese nationals were arrested for allegedly operating an online casino and were sentenced to two years behind bars by the Pattaya Provincial Court." That was a quick turnaround time for a trial and conviction. Maybe should have some other cases transferred to this jurisdiction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rimmer Posted September 9, 2017 Author Share Posted September 9, 2017 Can we move on from this little spelling mistake please, from the forum rules: Forum Netiquette 3. If possible please proofread your post first, poor grammar and spelling can make the post difficult to understand. However be aware that not every member is a native English speaker and excessive posts regarding others spelling and grammar not only hijacks the topic but is poor netiquette.
