The fact that the police arrested them at all is in itself suspicious. You’d expect it to be handled in a, err, different way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post janclaes47 Posted August 10, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 10, 2018 Update: The Criminal Court later Friday granted bail for Jiratpisit on a bond of 2 million baht. It gave the rationale that because the actor was working in a public place at the time of his arrest, he had no intention to flee. Oh yes, because he is filming and didn't know an arrest warrant was issued, he can't be bothered with the multiple year jail time hanging above his head. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klauskunkel Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 as soon as a Thai suspect is deemed a flight risk, a Thai court will grant bail. It's a law of nature. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
