Shooter at court dies from police shooting

By The Nation

 

 

Pol Maj-General Thanin Chantharatip, who had shot a lawyer at the Court of Justice before being fired upon by police, has died from his injury, Chanthaburi governor Withurat Srinam told the press today (November 12).

 

Thanin was involved in a long-standing dispute with another party over real estate worth a total of Bt300 million in Makham, Khao Khitchakut and Tha Mai districts of the province, the governor said. Both parties had been fighting in court for over ten years, he added.

 

“The court of justice will consider the case of perjury which is a criminal offence. The shooter was under pressure because he felt disadvantaged from the previous lawsuits,” the governor said.

 

“He took the gun hidden in the documents and shot at the lawyer, prompting police to fire at him, resulting in his death at the hospital".

On the off chance that an ex cop goes to court, gets charged, and sentenced, where will he go?  Do Thais separate ex cops from the general prison population?  In many countries, the USA for example the prisons try to separate cops from the prisoners.  Looks like this guy died so it is a moot point for him at the moment.

CCTV reveals how shooter smuggled gun into courtroom

By The Nation

 

 

Surveillance footage has shown how Pol Maj-General Thanin Chantharatip, who yesterday shot and killed a lawyer and injured four others at the Chantaburi Provincial Court, was able to smuggle a firearm into the building. 

 

On Wednesday (November 13) Sarawut Benjakul, secretary-general of Office of the Judiciary, showed reporters footage from CCTV cameras. These show Thanin arriving early at the court and waiting at the front gate. As security guards stand to attention for the national anthem, he passes through the security gate. 

 

Police said Thanin, who died later at hospital after being shot by officers, was stressed over a long-standing dispute with another party over 3,800 rai of real estate worth a total of Bt300 million in the Makham, Khao Khitchakut and Tha Mai districts of the province. The security of the court has been called into question.
