snoop1130 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Police seek faster updates on Yingluck’s travels from Foreign Affairs By Suriya Patatayo The Nation The Foreign Affairs Ministry has been sent a letter by police asking for information about the whereabouts and recent appearances of fugitive former PM Yingluck Shinawatra, said Deputy Police Chief Pol General Srivara Ransibrahmanakul on Thursday. Srivara said the police have asked the Foreign Affairs Ministry for details about where Yingluck and her brother, Thaksin, have travelled from, by which flights, with which passports, and to where they were heading. Police have not yet received a response from the ministry and expect it would take some time before they learn detail about their trip, said Srivara. They have not yet been able to locate her whereabouts, or have information that she is, or is not, now in Hong Kong as reported, he said. To coordinate with foreign countries is the duty of the Foreign Affairs Ministry, and not that of the police, noted Srivara. The police have coordinated with Interpol in an effort to locate and arrest Yingluck, he said. Knowing Yingluck’s location is critical to any extradition process, as only when an exact location is confirmed could police inform the prosecutor and Foreign Affairs to proceed with an extradition request. Interpol’s effort to locate her is thus critical to the process, said Srivara. Yingluck is reported to be planning to soon hold a press conference in Hong Kong – her first since fleeing Thailand last August, according to whip Somchai Sawangkarn, a diplomatic source at the National Legislative Assembly (NLA). Yingluck and her brother, Thaksin, travelled to Tokyo after being seen together last week in Beijing – a photo of them in the Chinese capital was circulated on social media last Saturday. Thaksin and Yingluck, both of whom are fugitives wanted by Thai authorities after being convicted of crimes, had been in Tokyo since Saturday and had left for Hong Kong on Tuesday, Japan News reported, quoting sources close to the pair. Last August, Yingluck fled Thailand just days before the Supreme Court’s Criminal Division for Political Office Holders was scheduled to deliver its verdict in a case connected to her government’s rice-pledging scheme. A month later she was sentenced in absentia to five years in prison for negligence in managing the scheme, which incurred major losses for the state. Her elder brother, Thaksin, was deposed as prime minister in a military coup in 2006 and subsequently fled abroad to avoid being jailed after being convicted for abuse of power by the same court. Deputy PM Wissanu Krea-ngam, meanwhile said authorities pursuing seizure of Yingluck’s assets did not need to report to him as already they had the Article 44 order directing them to take action against her assets.

Popular Post Chang_paarp Posted February 16, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted February 16, 2018 As the powers that be have cancelled all of Yinluck's Thai passports, what would the Dept Foreign Affairs officially know about her travels? They would not get any information based on use of her Thai passports and the country(/ies) that have issued her a passport would not share that information. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you say is correct. However, the Thai police aren't interested in what the MOFA know, the police are just using it to try and hide the fact the aren't doing/can't do anything about the situation. Deflecting the blame is what this is about. Thainess at its best. Edited February 16, 2018 by bluesofa 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. T. was one of theirs, if his official ranking prior to his political career, serves my memory right. Now all of a sudden the Foreign Ministry is chased - what a ridiculous joke!

Mmm . . . in the unlikely event that the For. Min. would be likely to have a shred of info of this sort, the request does sound reasonable.

Oh-oh . . . looks like the FO are saying 'FO' to the RTP and who could blame them, given the RTP's ineptitude in all things travel-related.
