Prosecutor offers more snags and excuses in extradition request for "Red Bull Boss"

 

Picture: Sanook

 

A public prosecutor in Thailand responsible for foreign affairs has told Thai media that the Thai police were responsible for a legal technicality mix up in the quest for the extradition of the heir to the Red Bull fortune.

 

And one of the excuses is that fugitives could say their crime is not a crime in the foreign country where they are living. 

 

Amnat Chotichai said that it was true that the Thai National Police had succeeded in getting Interpol to issue a red notice but that the paperwork was not complete - no firm address was put for the fugitive. 

 

This appears to have resulted in delays but was now rectified, said Amnat. 

 

Amnat also gave Sanook a list of reasons why fugitives might not be extradited. 

 

This included the fact that countries with extradition treaties with Thailand could face difficulties sending suspects back if the crime for which they are wanted is not a crime in that country. 

 

Amnat said that fugitives could fight to stay in those countries if that was the case. 

 

Vorayuth Yoovidhya or Boss is wanted for dragging a Bangkok policeman under the wheels of his Ferrari in September 2012.

That well known country of farangland.

 

Impossible to find on a map but all Thais know it exists...(often for their own convienience).

It would be interesting to see the bank accounts of all the officials involved in this matter. I wonder what kind of money we are talking about?

Usually that kind of money is being funneled into the accounts of their maids and gardeners ?

Thailand? ?

[worgeordie]

I think "hit and run,resulting in death"will be a crime in any country,

so no excuse at all,it's pretty obvious people in authority are protecting 

the "boss".

Yeah, it's totally legal in the UK to drive a high powered sports car coked and pi$$ed out of your brain, hit a copper on a m/c, kill him, leave the scene of the accident, blame someone else etc etc...…...

It's also totally legal to overthrow legitimate elected governments in the UK with the armed forces last time I checked. Not.

 Strange the complete different ways in which these two cases are being pursued….

Numpties!

They clearly think we are as stupid as them to believe a word of it. He has paid them off and it is blatantly obvious they are never going to get him back. Case closed.

Interpol must be slow in catching up with the Thai whizz kids, still not one single Red Notice issued on behalf of Thailand.

There are a few Thais on Red Notice by other countries though !! Just took a closer look at those, most are wanted on charges of people smuggling by Malaysia...

Basically this ^^^

 

Same as what the Thai's themselves often say...In Thailand anything is possible with enough Baht

[UnkleMoooose]

I would like to live in the country where running down police, and then dragging their corpses down the road is not a crime. For an hour or two anyway.

+1 Was going to say the exact same thing!

Please Sir. Do not ever again defame the bar stewards to such a low level. Even they deserve better.

Extradition request!  Just send a couple of plainclothes and drag the spoiled kid back to Thailand.

I read this and wonder how people can accept that this happens, my Thai friends just shrug their shoulders and display no reactions.

The Thai education system works, for some that is.

a 10% cut of the pay-off would be sufficient to fund a farang like you or I in Thailand living high-off-the-hog for the rest of our lives - plus a bit...

[Artisi]

from the minute the copper was hit and dragged to his death down the road, the excuse for a human who did it was already in the clear of any repercussion's - "don't you know who I am".

Try Mexico,usually you riddle them with bullets first,drag them to the nearest bridge,hang them from it ,with a sign saying which cartel did it.

[BobbyL]

How can they actually release something like that?

 

It is truly incredible and probably one of the stupidest things I have ever read.
