rooster59 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Find Yingluck and bring her to justice, PM orders By THE NATION FORENSIC OFFICE CONFIRMS RECENT PHOTO THAT OF FORMER PREMIER BUT UNABLE TO DATE IT The government has instructed police to track down and arrest fugitive former prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra so she can be brought back to Thailand to face justice, deputy national police chief Pol General Srivara Ransibhramanakul said yesterday. Sriwara said the instruction had come from Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha and Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwan, who oversees the Royal Thai Police. He told reporters that the police were still hopeful they would succeed in seeing Yingluck brought home and prosecuted. “Police are working the best we can,” he said. Sriwara has instructed the officers in the case to regularly seek updates about Yingluck’s whereabouts from their Interpol counterparts overseas and report to him every week. According to Sriwara, Thai police had asked Interpol for up-to-date information before the New Year but were still awaiting a reply. Police yesterday confirmed the authenticity of Yingluck’s photo taken with a Thai tourist in London although they could not be sure the picture had been taken recently. Photo of Yingluck Shinawatra taken with a Thai tourist taken in London Public prosecutors, meanwhile, maintained that their hunt for Yingluck and her fugitive brother, ex-premier Thaksin Shinawatra, to be prosecuted in Thailand was still active. Sriwara said Yingluck’s latest photo was genuine. “The Forensic Science Office points out that it is highly likely the photo is not doctored,” Sriwara said. This week, a photo of Yingluck taken with an unidentified Thai tourist in London appeared in the Thai media. Alleged photo of Yingluck in London (courtesy of Facebook page @secret100million) It was reported that the ex-PM was spotted during the New Year holiday outside a shopping mall in the British capital and she did not seem to be making any effort to hide her identity, nor to have any bodyguard nearby, the report said. A source said that many Thai tourists and expatriates in London often asked to have their photos taken with Yingluck if they met her. They would also ask her about her current life and expressed concern for her well-being, according to the source. Pol Maj-General Thawatchai Mekprasertsuk, commander of the police’s Forensic Science Office, confirmed that the latest Yingluck photo was genuine, adding that thanks to the photo’s high resolution, forensic officials were convinced that it was not doctored. “However, we cannot tell when the photo was taken, whether it is old or new. It’s because we don’t have the original for examination,” he said. Pol Colonel Surapan Thaiprasert, deputy commander of the police’s Foreign Affairs Bureau, said yesterday that Interpol police in the United Arab Emirates had told their Thai counterpart in mid-November that Yingluck had left the UAE for the United Kingdom. The Thai Interpol later asked their UAE counterparts about details of Yingluck’s flight to the UK but had still not received a reply, he said. Meanwhile, public prosecutors said yesterday they were still pursuing politicians who were overseas but wanted by the Thai law agencies. Prosecutors are working with relevant state agencies, such as the Royal Thai Police, Department of Special Investigation and Foreign Affairs Ministry, in order to get wanted politicians extradited to Thailand for prosecution, said Prayut Phetkhun, deputy spokesman for the Office of the Attorney-General. Earlier yesterday, the prime minister and the Foreign Ministry refused to deny or confirm latest media reports that Yingluck was now in the UK. PM Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha Prayut simply shook his head when he was asked by a reporter whether he had seen the Yingluck photo taken outside a shopping mall in London. He declined any comments on the matter and left quickly. Government Spokesman Lt-General Sansern Kaewkamnerd said “international legal procedures” should be followed by Thai authorities in their pursuit of Yingluck, who “must be in some foreign country as she is not in Thailand”. However, Prayut has yet to issue any orders related to updating Yingluck’s whereabouts, Sansern said. “While the legal procedure is compulsory, the PM doesn’t wish to concentrate much on politics and make it such a big deal,” he told The Nation. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Busadee Santipitaks said yesterday that her agency had no additional information regarding Yingluck when asked about the latest sighting of the ex-PM overseas. The British Embassy yesterday declined any comments on Yingluck, following her latest public appearance and reports that she was seeking asylum in the UK. “We do not comment on whether an individual is in the UK or not. Border Force will consider any applications for entry in line with the Immigration Rules,” the embassy responded when asked to comment on the matter. Interpol Thailand also refused to comment. A woman resembling Yingluck was spotted in a London mall along with a boy who resembled her 15-year-old son Supasek Amornchat. The Facebook page @secret100million posted the photo last week and its administrator wrote that the photo had been received from a well-intentioned person. Yingluck fled the country in August, shortly before the Supreme Court’s verdict in a case against her. She was sentenced to five years in jail.

Samui Bodoh Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 There is zero chance anyone would extradite Yingluck to Thailand to face "justice" by a military Junta. Zero. Do you not understand this? Is not the lesson of Thaksin clear enough? The only way that Yingluck will return to Thailand is if she chooses to do so. Period. Please stop this blustering nonsense, you are making my belly hurt... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinneil Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Prayut is obsessed with the Shins, he has nightmares about them. All he is doing is yaking on about them to deflect attention away from his own failings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezzra Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Ok, like you need the police forensic office to tell that the woman in the picture is her and not a clone right? Bring her back? what is she? a lost luggage that need to be brought back? this issue, it seems even to big for the PM to order around what with S44 not very effective in the UK....

Metadata doesn't exist when you rip photos off someone's facebook, even apps encrypt photos as attachments. This circus is very entertaining.

jayboy Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) It seems that Yingluck is definitely in the UK.The Thai authorities will have been advised of this by the UK authorities months ago.There is no chance of extradition and the Thai authorities are perfectly well aware of this.It is also highly probable they do not want the return of Yingluck to Thailand. With the exception of the last point (which is an opinion) all the other points above are irrefutable facts. With this context it is clear (and taking into account the comments of the Government spokesman, the Deputy National Police Chief and the Foreign MInistry spokesman) the whole Thai establishment are taking the approved party line - presumably dictated by the Junta - namely that the pursuit of Yingluck is work in progress - and yet this is completely inconsistent with the known facts. So we are dealing with a pack of liars. Still for comic relief and connoisseurs of the absurdities of Thai bureaucracy one has to treasure the following comment in the stable door/fleeing horse department.

Phaser Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Let's be completely honest - there was NO WAY that Yingluck could magically leave the country right before the court decision without the quiet agreement of you know who. No Thai I have spoken to believes she 'escaped' and by the way, it was a totally Thai perfect solution....Yingluck goes to jail she is a Martyr ....she 'escapes' she is a wanted criminal. So she 'escapes'...she is with her brother and family but out of Thailand and a criminal. Good for the Thai military imposed government and good for her...she ain't com'in back brother...
