Army Won’t Allow Civilian Inquiry Into Cadet Death

By Teeranai Charuvastra, Staff Reporter

 

Pichet Tanyakan lashes out at an army rep Thursday at Phramongkutklao Hospital where he picked up his son’s missing organs.

 

BANGKOK — A defense ministry spokesman said Friday that an independent inquiry into the death of a 19-year-old military cadet is not necessary as the armed forces is already in charge of the matter.

 

As a war of words escalates between the dead teen’s father and top defense official over the death and subsequent handling of 19-year-old Pakapong Tanyakan’s remains, calls for civilian agencies to investigate how he died at an elite military academy were dismissed by spokesman Kongcheep Tantravanich.

Army Won’t Allow Civilian Inquiry Into Cadet Death

 

 

That says it all

 

in the photo - it seems like he thinks he's got them by the proverbials

Well, what a surprise. Either they're so dumb they actually think people believe their BS or their so arrogant they simply don't care. To rub salt in the wounds on the victim's family, they're saying they only want recruits who are tough, thus implying to the family that the victim was not tough.  Tough or not, anyone can die after being beaten to death. Prayut and Prawit saying they also experience this kind of treatment in the army is laughable. Can you seriously imagine either of these buffoons taking a beating?  Never happened. It is an insult to man and women in uniform all over the world that Prayut and Prawit have the nerve to call themselves soldiers. Would you follow them onto a battlefield? 

This reprehensible outfit are making more and more enemies as their top brass' boneheaded attempts to cover up a spate of killings are being called out by more Thais than I have seen.

 

The inevitable is going to happen soon if this criminality isn't seen to be dealt with.

 

Good on the parents for doing the right thing and showing these dinosaurs to be exactly what they are

I am sure that nobody would ever have to worry about having to follow them into battle. Their kind always 'lead' from a comfortable spot in the rear and leave others to die for them.

 

The army shouldn't be deciding. It's their job to dig latrines, not be pooyays.

He is saying "I have the brain now, you F*$(#ers." I am more interested in the journalist. Is that Chuwit Kamonwisit?

It won't. The Thai military have been committing crimes and massacring Thai civilians for nearly a hundred years and never have they been accountable to an external body.

Possibly, out of sheer curiosity just to see what they would do.

It would be hilarious, in a macabre sort of way!

Corrupt Dinosaurs covering up a murder..

Good on the father. Here’s a man hurting and he wants answers. The most dangerous people are those with nothing to lose. 

 

As for the army ‘being in control of the situation’, you got nothing to fear then you have nothing to hide. If I’m ever downtown and a copper asks for ID, I’ll be sure to follow their example and tell them that I’m in control of the situation.  What a bunch of abhorrent imbeciles.

It really is, isn't it?  I was staring at the picture, thinking what's he doing there, and why isn't it commented upon?

The ultimate cover up by the ultimate brutalists......the Thai military.

I was thinking the same. Looks like he has gone into media ... http://englishnews.thaipbs.or.th/chuwit-quits-politics/

 

I really hope he intends to keep his word about exposing corruption - this case could do with a champion.

A defense ministry spokesman said....

 

Stop right there. We've heard it all before too many times.

 

Very sad for the parents and I can understand how they must feel.

Absolutely terrible.

 

 

 

 

Prayut and his cronies are just burying themselves in the unpopularity stakes. It wouldn't hurt them to show some compassion, but compassion is not within Thai military discipline.

Prayut needs a good PR advisor. Even with expert advice I think he would still fail because all he thinks and talks about is himself.

He's been on TV, running his own show with a dolly bird. Not bad, though I don't understand what he says. He quite likes a blackboard and white pen.

 

Good luck to him. He's a criminal from way back but more honest than most of the Thai establishment, though they all looked down on him. The poor luvvies have no respect for new money, as their treatment of Thaksin displayed very well.

the parents are within their rights to have anyone they want to do an autopsy, it is their son not the armies, all this does it make it definitely look like a cover up

well, he is not a cadet anymore, so you are not in charge of the matter.

Thais don't do battles unless it's eight on to one in their favour.

article title might have been 'army won't allow'

........and all you'd have to do is hurl one insult at them, make them lose face, and all their so-called "discipline" would fall apart while they have hissy fits and start blaming each other! 

Its getting worse in Thailand. I have problem with following all the strange and new laws and rules set day per day. Please dont let this continue at next election.....

couldn't agree more, and the more they play the no need for a separate inquiry card the more guilty they look

Got Chuwit on the case. This could get good.

No. He does not need a good PR advisor. He needs to keep shooting himself in the foot. He needs to fail. He needs to be more disliked, by the day, week, month, until this country is finally rid of him.

And then he needs to stand trial.
