Interpol Red Notice issued for "Boss" - but pointless if he's switched passports

[tandor]

...oh1...that's a good idea..get a different Passport...hmm wouldn't they be able to find out which country fairly easily...????

[James26]

How about a sizable reward for anyone who gives information resulting in his capture?

I thought the RTP repeatedly said they didn’t know where he was. And yet three years ago he was right under there nose. Still, if you don’t want to catch someone you won’t. Too many stuffed brown envelopes in this one. I hope he dies a horrible death, like his victim did. 

I wish no ill or a "horrible death" upon anyone, including you. I am fortunate at being able to avoid people who utter such ill intentioned hopes.

[Venom]

So they are finally getting around to issuing an Interpol Red Notice? Better late than never. ????

How does knowing where he is living help the RTP?

They must have known to advise him to get another passport, plenty of countries you can buy one from.

[Marley01]

<deleted> , do these monkeys expect  half intelligent people to believe their <deleted>?

how in the hell would he get a new passport without thai immigration knowing.

this pathetic excuse for a government is being shafted from behind while they have their head in the sand.

probably enjoying it too.

[spidermike007]

No. Pointless if they do not take the Thai authorities seriously. And few on this planet consider Thai law enforcement to be a credible entity, on any level. So, why would THEY enforce it, even if it were true that Thailand asked for it, which is questionable, at best. Did they really issue the red letter? Is there any way to verify that independently? And if so, deos it mean anything? 

[worgeordie]

He is not going to change anything,nobody is looking for him,

but if they really were the next F1 race meeting would be

a good place to start.

If the second passport is in his name what’s the problem but does Thailand really want to arrest him and bring him back TIT

They do.  They simply are not going to act against a billionaire's heir.  Now, if you were Joe Average?  You'd probably be immediately incarcerated and shipped back to your home country with much fanfare.

One would assume a couple new passports and a plastic surgery no doubt to alter his look, and  rub off or again, alter his finger print profile that's the least i would have done in his shoes and his vast resources...

Why bother with pain of plastic surgery? 

Nobody is actively looking for him.  Just another rich Asian with (bought) EU passport.  If the biometrics of the person matches that entered with the passport, everything's gold.

 

In 7 years when the statute of limitations expire, he'll be back in LoS speeding in the latest model Ferrari.

i'd bet my next salary he's in thailand.

According to the Interpol website "Red Notices are issued for fugitives wanted either for prosecution or to serve a sentence. A Red Notice is a request to law enforcement worldwide to locate and provisionally arrest a person pending extradition, surrender, or similar legal action." This has nothing to do with crossing borders although that would be one way they will show up. If police check entry names they will know if he is there, unless he has changed his name, and has a false passport, in which case he is arrestable in what ever country he is in for having false papers.

[karunasup]

They need to fool the Thai public not the farangs!  

[Dionigi]

He does not show up on the Interpol site yet, watch this space https://www.interpol.int/en/How-we-work/Notices/View-Red-Notices

or not as the case may be.

[Pedrogaz]

He is at every F1 event. Turn up at wherever he is going to be. For goodness' sake they even put his mug shot in the Red Bull pits every race.

[Nanaplaza666]

Follow the money !!! But if they follow the money there are going to be to many skelletons , i think everybody just needs to let this one go because he will never be punnished end of story . That's how it works here in thailand . As they say already , this red notice doesn't make any difference because it's no reason for arrest and many countries will not even inform the RTP . This whole sharade is just for show .

Some troll posts have been removed. 

[kentrot]

I'd like to help the BIB's in tracking Young Mr.Boss Redbull .....

 

Try this --- go to Google and enter "Red Bull Events 2020"

https://www.redbull.com/int-en/events

 

You might send a BIB or 2 with an arrest warrant,  to any of these events along with the famous photo of "Boss" (above) and ask if anyone has seen him at one or all of these events

One would think that finding him would be relatively easy.  Actually extraditing him is a whole different story.  Obviously the country must have a treaty with Thailand, but the rules for extradition vary with every country.  Some merely require that they are satisfied of identity, and that the alleged offence would be a serious offence had it occurred in their country.  Others require a full trial and finding of guilt.

 

Boss is not short of a dollar and will most likely challenge any proceedings.  That means Thailand has to send investigators and lawyers to whichever country, and retain lawyers within that country.  It can be a very expensive business for the state.  Poor and developing countries generally don't extradite other than from regional countries, simply because they can't afford it.

[DJ54]

Possible invested to get citizenship in a country with no extradite treaty...

maybe find his security guards ...

Not entirely true.  There doesn't need to be an extradition treaty.  Any country in the world can declare a foreigner an undesirable under their own rules and stick him on an airplane to his country of citizenship.  Happens all the time when (for example) a country finds out they issued a visa to a pedophile or drug dealer.  It's just a deportation, not an extradition.

 

The UK can't send an Aussie citizen to the USA, nor Canada send a Chinese citizen to the USA without an extradition treaty.  But Russia could stick Snowden on a plane to the USA tomorrow if they wanted to.   They just don't want to...  (And because there's no extradition treaty, they're not obligated to)

 

I suspect that it's not a slam-dunk that he'd be deported to Thailand if he carries another passport.  And I'm sure a team of lawyers would fight his deportation back to Thailand no matter from what country.  But that would be based on the immigration laws of the country that's trying to deport him, and wouldn't require any reciprocal treaty.   Thai officials could just be spectators.  

 

[fondue zoo]

Offer a fat reward for his capture or whereabouts.

[RobU]

He could be tried (and sentenced) in absence, it happens in other countries, why not Thailand? He should also be tried for evading the law.

[The Theory]

Perhaps he is a Malta passport holder.

The case has caused a huge scandal in Thailand along the lines of one law for the rich and one for the poor 

if you are rich wherever in the world, there's a law for the rich and one for the poor. it shouldn't be difficult to catch the "boss", just follow the money!

[Nkpjed]

If they wanted to catch him they would have done so a long time ago.  It’s <deleted> to say they don’t know where he is.  What a <deleted> up place this
