Normally it's the farang who falls from the balcony !

Is this a news story or an excerpt from a cheap porn novel?  As they were about to climax, she fell over the balcony.  What a new low in journalistic reporting. I feel dirty reading the article and disgusted with what has been said.  How about life w/o parole in the Bangkok Hilton.  He's likely to have some weird times there I wager.

Why would they ever let a convicted rapist and other crimes into Thailand?  He did time after punching a teenager repeatedly in the face before raping her.

 

Keep the nasty scum like this out of the country.

Why would they ever let a convicted rapist and other crimes out of the U.K?

RIP !! Loss of life at such a young age.

 

They should throw the book at him. I not concerned about his excuses. He obviously has issues. Even if he was doing it on the balcony .... you take the risk you pay the price. And in this case a young lady lost her life.

 

Best wishes to her family.

Unfortunately UK does not share any criminal record information with Thailand on a routine basis, so with anybody turning up on a British passport entering Thailand on a tourist visa or visa exemption, immigration would have no idea of any past crimes, no matter how bad they are, the only way that this could happen is if the UK had placed a Interpol notice on a person.

As far as I am aware, the only visas that requires a criminal record check prior to issuing are the O-A or O-X visas.

I think more to the point, how come the UK would let him leave with, according to the British tabloids, an outstanding warrant at the present time?

"We feel really sorry for the girl and her family. It was an accident, we know it was. It’s awful.”

 

an accident. Sure,  just like the teenage girl he raped and hit with a bin lid in the UK.

 

Accident ? We know it was ('nt) lock this animal away, and then deport it. Weirdo.

RE - Vella moved to Thailand to "start a new life" and "get out of trouble", according to his brother Andrayoss,

 

 “He did have a problem with drugs, and served a stint in prison. But he had turned his life around", Andrayoss told the Mirror.

Must say he really managed to Reach his target to turn his life around or should we say upsidedown....:coffee1:

Sounds like a case of drunken naughtiness gone horribly wrong. The bloke obviously stupid for not helping her and fleeing the scene, but maybe he was aware that the local cops' ill repute would likely have him stitched up for something had he stuck around.

And it is sad how Thai suspects are able to cover their faces with hats, sunglasses and surgical masks when they get lifted while this guy's mug is viewable by all and sundry.

 

RIP to the girl, this guy is toast now and probably not for the reasons he should be. A sad case all round

Yes just liked he was stitched up for violent rape and fleeing a drug arrest and overstaying his visa and stealing a motorbike and ..... always an excuse when you are a criminal and get caught.

I agree and do not understand why it is so different. :(

Yep, I agree entirely with your sentiment.  Cases like this make me really want to see Thailand look in to people's backgrounds when it comes to visa applications.  - And the law does say that in the case of anyone who has been sentence to 12 months or more in Thailand is not allowed to enter Thailand (but of course they don't ask about this, let alone actually check or require a police clearance cert.)  Plenty of countries require visa applicants to provide a police clearance certificate when applying for anything beyond a short-term visa and convictions or jail-time can - especially in the case of a sentence of a year or more - help to keep out people like this fellow.

Looks like he's had a hard life if he is only 25 (if in fact it is his real passport).

On overstay as some posters report.

Took her phones.

Ran away.

I hope the cops look a lot closer into his background as he doesn't sound like a lad fresh off the boat who had a tragic incident.

Perhaps something more sinister going on.

 

 

My post from yesterdays thread. Seems I wasn't too wide of the mark.

Actually it has been reported he rented the bike , so maybe that part of the story is true. But he's been living here for 4 months so why would he rent a bike only for a few days. 

 

 

Sometimes he didn't need, or couldn't afford, a bike

 A 25-year-old guy with such a history can hardly be trusted, can he? Considering that he took her phone AND KEPT IT shows an enormous degree of stupidity/ insanity. 

Also with him being on an overstay and theft of phones , suggests that he didnt have any money.

Maybe his intentions were to rob and rape her ?

He woke up early , tried to leave the room without paying her and took her phone , she woke up and objected and he  pushed her away onto the balcony with such force that she went over , he then continued with his escape

Pity immigration can't be bothered to flag these types upon entering Swampy airport and send them back before they legally enter. It states he was a convicted rapist in the story for crying out loud, If that does not send out warning bells to airport immigration  i don't know what will!

You think if immigration knew his history they would welcome him to Thailand?  What in your expert opinion did immigration not bother or fail to do? You are probably also a constant complainer of 90 day reporting etc. no one can do it as good as you yet you have never done it. 5555
