Authorities find more possible remnants of hunting by Italian Thai CEO

 

 

KANCHANABURI, 2 March 2018 (NNT) – A new inspection of the site where Italian Thai Co Ltd CEO Premchai Karnasutra is suspected of shooting down a black panther has uncovered bullet markings in trees. 

Deputy Commander of the Region 7 Police Pol Maj Gen Krisana Supdech led Kanchanaburi forensic police, investigators, local police and members of the Phaya Sua Task Force back to the site where Premchai and three others are suspected of hunting and killing a black panther in the Tungyai Naresuan Wildlife Sanctuary. Authorities have found broken branches and other markings consistent with gun shots. They also found an area where the black panther was likely butchered. 

However, authorities indicated that forensic analysis of the markings is yet to be conclusive and some issues with the range of the shots remains as the distance suspected of the hunters is unlikely, judging from where the animal was analyzed to have been standing. 

At the same time, while police have confirmed that the markings are from bullets, they have yet to decipher what type of ammunition was used and from what type of gun they may have been fired as casings are needed for a positive identification. 

Police have given the Phaya Sua Task Force a metal detector to aid them in finding any bullet fragments. 

Pol Maj Krisana nonetheless stated that there is already enough evidence to find fault with Premchai and his party. 

All relevant authorities have been taken to the camp where Premchai was found to see where bone fragments were uncovered to aid in their questioning of the suspects.

The never ending story. With no final outcome likely.

They were caught red handed. How is this any different from a person being caught with drugs stitched into the lining of their bag?

They're bang to rights, done, on toast, whatever you want to call it. The only difference is the fat idiot in the frame here has deep pockets, powerful mates and some lesser mortals who can take the rap.

 

Quit with the BS. I would have more respect for the courts and authorities if they just came out and said we won't prosecute this guy correctly, we will just save the money and resources for something else. It's beyond a pantomime ?

What's the statute of limitations on this? Going the same way as the Red Bull kid's case.

Now, if the headline was to read:

 

“Authorities find remnants of Italian Thai CEO”

 

I wouldn’t shed a tear...

They are getting lime light, so they will drag that out as long as they can.  Just hope they set a trial date soon for this pillar of Thai high society, so he might face justice and defend himself.
