Popular Post rooster59 Posted September 14, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 14, 2019 Pattaya: Police hotfoot it back to base as huge murder reenactment turns nasty Image: Ruk Siam News Some 200 police officers led by the Chonburi provincial police chief and the acting head of the Pattaya police took the suspect in the shooting murder of an influential and well connected local man on a reenactment to the scene of the crime yesterday. But as around 100 of the victim's friends tried to break through a police cordon the provincial chief ordered his men to head back to the Pattaya police station. The reenactment was of the murder in the early hours of a man who went by the nickname of "Tee Lai Kor Phai". The 37 year old was shot outside the Teng See bar in the Rung Land housing estate in South Pattaya. Injured in the incident was Chatchai, 37, who was shot in the head and is still in hospital. It happened at 5.30 am on the 11th according to Ruk Siam News. In a Facebook report the media gave more details of what happened. They said that Tee Lai and Chatchai started to have an argument at a birthday party and went out into the street. A security guard at the pub who is a friend of Chatchai went out to help them settle their differences. But Tee Lai pulled out a gun and shot Chatchai in the head. The guard Warut Sae-jia or "Arm" ran into the pub and got a gun. He fired at Tee Lai multiple times because he was angry that his friend had been shot in front of him. He then fled to his girlfriend's house in Surin where he was arrested and charged with murder and brought back to Pattaya. Yesterday Provincial police chief Pol Maj-Gen Nanthachart Suphamongkhon and acting Pattaya police chief Atinan Nutchanart mobilized 200 officers for the reenactment of the crime. Security was tight and the road leading to the housing estate was sealed off temporarily amid fears that friends of Tee Lai would try to lynch Warut. When Warut was led out of a police vehicle about 100 friends of the dead man tried to break through a police cordon. Seeing that things had taken a bad turn Maj-Gen Nanthachart decided to call off the reenactment and head back to the Pattaya police station. Ruk Siam News said that the police were in control of the situation throughout. Thaivisa notes that several names and details in this story have changed from earlier reports. No reports have specifically itemized what Tee Lai was known for in Pattaya.

Popular Post Phuketshrew Posted September 14, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 14, 2019 I seem to remember that there was a directive some time ago to stop these re-enactments. Why are they still doing them? 28 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post SammyT Posted September 14, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 14, 2019 I've never understood why they continue to do these things. In 99% of murders it offers no extra evidence yet it seems to rip open raw wounds for family and friends and provoke outrage. cost v benefit doesnt seem great. 30 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post z42 Posted September 14, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 14, 2019 200 officers needed to do a crime re-enactment which aside from being highly unethical is also a gross abuse of man power. What a circus that such a large contingent still didn't keep order that well. Pathetic at best 29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post darksidedog Posted September 14, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 14, 2019 Stupid really to do a reenactment in the first place, and taking 200 men shows they knew it would be inflammatory and dangerous. Then again, we have seen many, many very stupid reenactments of a variety of crimes, for no other purpose it seems than allowing the cops to bask in the attention of the press. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "active" ones are currently manning checkpoints throughout the city and issuing tickets to anyone not conforming to the law. The "inactive" ones are currently inspecting all massage parlours as to determine whether or not they are offering sexual services.....and if so do they meet the criteria of "happy endings" as per the terms of the granting of the police approved licences Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was puzzled about this too, according to my old landlord it is a stage show to demonstrate that the police are in fact doing their job as there has always been room for doubt. The charts, perp, billboard, smiling police team and of course finger pointing is an updated version of the same thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Room for doubt yes, especially when the police are telling the accused what to do, where to point etc. I can't count the number of times enactments on video with sound appear on TV news program and my Thai son says the accused is being told to say only what the cops tell him /her to say, etc. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See post #5 answer. Photo Ops??? Many BIB seem to be in on any chance of their 5 minutes of fame. 200 men? The O.P says they knew it was very likely to be crashed, so why court disaster and do the un-necessary? Someone will get killed at a re-enactment, if it hasn't already happened.
