Apparently the Australian Federal Police are also based in Thailand...I had no idea..they are not coming from Australia.

It appears they now have a Pattaya branch and Bangkok?

And were investigating outlaw motorcycle clubs as well<SNIP> 

 

 

 

It long been reported AFP, in liaison with Thai law enforcement, have Oz criminal gang members under investigation in Thailand. There are also other Oz intelligence agency people in Thailand e.g. counter terrorism.

Can anyone know about this ?

I see the news this morning and on radio these are the first person to be arrested for a overseas offence under the new law ..a bar owner in Pattaya .. apparently he was painting his bar and alleged to knuckle duster the other guy who was a Australian citizen but now 

 

 

Australian Federal Police have been based in many foreign countries for decades. Philippines, Thailand, Netherlands, PNG, Cyprus, Lebanon, and more 

They cannot arrest a person without consent from the host country, and then only under very specific circumstances.

They investigate all types of criminal activities, drug smuggling, trafficking of persons, sex crimes against minors. It would not be about a common assault

That is correct. Common assault matters are dealt with by local thai police, federal officers have no jurisdiction on such matters, even in australia.

 

They deal with drugs, bikies, peados which when done overseas falls into their jurisdiction.

OP ;  You are incorrect, he was arrested in Perth Australia, not Thailand.    It happened some 18 months ago in Pattaya at a bar owned by the brother. 

The victim ( the other brother )  logged a complaint with the AFP in October last year ..... some 8 months after the incident.  AFP arrested the brother on his return to Perth on Wednesday.

He faces up to 20 years behind bars if convicted of intentionally causing serious harm to an Australian citizen or resident outside Australia. 

AFP do work out of the Australian embassy in Bangkok Thailand. They don't have an office in Pattaya. 

 

 

Of course they do! You must of missed it. Its down the soi past the Commando coffee shop, next to the black ops bistro. If you see the SAS shop you've gone to far.
