Maybe come back via Singapore for the F1, and pay a visit to the Red Bull crew.....never know who you might see there. Perhaps somebody else who has been wanted for a lot longer.

The daily comedy-drama show that is Thailand continues, proudly sponsored by the Junta and paid for by the Thai people

What does the RTP think that Interpol can do for them? It is between the Thai and German Governments now. He has already been told the process will take 2 months. Someone please tell this fool that he's not in Kansas anymore!

Perhaps Russia for the World Cup.

National police chief Pol Gen Chakthip Chaijinda has left for France

Why did he leave for France instead of leaving for Germany? Very suspicious travel agenda.

seek help from the  Interpol to secure the extradition of former assistant abbot of Wat Sampanthawong in Bangkok

Where was Chakthip when fugitive Red Bull heir Vorayuth Yoovidhaya re-entered Thailand by private air charter on April 23, 2017 and departed on April 25, 2017 without being detained?

Perhaps a trip to Suvarnabhumi Airport to secure Mr. Yoovodhaya wasn't as attractive as a trip to Europe, Yoovodhaya had stellar police connections and/or greater political connections than ex-Phra Prommethi.

If I were Prommethi, I would point to German authorities the example of Yoovidhaya's apparent preferential treatment by the RTP as proof that the efforts by the RTP to extradite the monk is discriminately motivated.

You ask where was he when Red Bull boy came back to Thailand?

Standing in line for his brown envelope of course.

The Junta has got rocks in its head. No democratic country is going to return anyone back to a non elected military rule.

(and some other criminals)

 

I wonder if he got his  priorities  right

His priorities are still right, of course. They've probably just been rearranged a bit. All of this sudden running around makes it look like someone higher up than usual may be pulling the strings.

This crowd are completely useless. As I understand it, Interpol is primarily a liaison and information organisation, and has no powers to intervene in German asylum applications.

 

Why this yahoo is even going to see them is a mystery.

 

Correction; no it isn't, the Thai police are just ridiculous, and now even Interpol knows that. Good job sir, well done.

Which bit of "it will take 2 months" is this guy having trouble with?

 

Or does he just enjoy airline food?

Well, at least this time it appears they didn't waste the money on 14 seats.

Thailand kicked a whole team of forensic experts from the BKA ( similar to the FBI) out for working without work permits right after the Tsunami in the south.

 

   Germany was the first country that put up 10 million Euros first aid, but they thought these specialists with a very good education and knowledge would be illegals?

 

 I've seen the dead bodies at the temple up the hill in Khao Lak and you couldn't even tell if the dead body was a Caucasian or an African. That's why the German BKA came in very handy, including their equipment. 

 

  They came to Thailand to do a nasty work, paid by the German government and all of them were specialists in their field.

 

  Unfortunately, is nobody from the Thai staff in Germany a specialist in anything. They all created their way up to the top and more developed countries are aware of that.

 

 How can Thailand give Germany a timeframe on when to do certain tasks? If the monk has got the status of being an Asylant, there's nothing these idiots can do.

 

  But I'm sure they'd even try to get him out illegal because these people are so special. The ship Thailand doesn't have a captain and it's now drifting into dangerous waters where sharks could eat them all. 

 

  God, I wish Yingluck would be back and sell rice in Ubon R. 

 

 

So the 3 day ultimatum to German police somehow did not work out. Any loss of face damage? I guess rather not reportimg about the fiasco

Interpol are not police.  Did they call first?  Individual countries make their own laws, and even if the monk is lying, the Thai government has no credibility 

Has the Thai foreign minister made any comments on this?  That would be his job or is he too busy trying to bury the share scandal.

I believe the monk is on the Riviera, although he is difficult to find, may take a month or two to locate him.

All they have to do is ask the guys who rent umbrellas about a guy in orange robes wearing expensive sunglasses.

 

Edit:  I just got word through my Interpol contacts that a senior inspector has been assigned to the case.

It´s really nice to see that the history still lives on, and lacks the awareness like a new born baby. One man made history. I am talking about Matrin Luther King.
He once said: "I have a dream". Appearently that had such an impression on the authorities in some countries. They are still dreaming!
