rooster59 20904 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Koh Samui policeman granted bail after raping Myanmar woman Image: Daily News A Koh Samui policeman who allegedly raped a young Myanmar woman who was being held in the cells of Bo Phut police station has been granted bail by the court. This comes despite damning CCTV evidence that the cop took the 21 year old woman out of the cells and forced her to a sofa in an office and raped her. The provincial police chief has promised justice - a disciplinary committee has been set up and the policeman, Snr Sgt Maj Watcharin Sinsamosorn has already been expelled from the force. This measure is a sure sign that the RTP believe him to be guilty, notes Thaivisa. Watcharin was successful in posting bail of 400,000 baht on Friday. On Wednesday night CCTV showed him enter the cell area and turn off the lights. He then used his key to open "Mo's" cell where she was being held ahead of deportation. He then dragged her to a traffic police office where he allegedly raped her. Forensic police were on the scene yesterday examining a sofa where the rape allegedly occurred. Provincial police chief Pol Maj-Gen Sathit Phonphinit yesterday met with Bo Phut station chief Pol Col Yuthana Sirisombat before examining the cells. He met with relatives of the victim and promised "justice". A justice ministry official was also in contact to advise about compensation for the victim from an official fund.

RandolphGB 3251 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Why does the headline confirm his guilt? It should say ‘after allegedly raping’. Further, no evidence is ‘damning’ until it’s proven in a court. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the policeman has already lost his job. It is possible that the case will be dropped if enough 'compensation' is offered to the lady and she accepts. The lady was already under arrest.

Bangkok Barry 13933 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Amazing how many people still seem to be totally unaware of the existence of CCTV. Anyway, now that he's been allowed out it will save the police and court's time in trying to bring him to justice as he will have disappeared. I wonder how a policeman, who we are always told are so poor, came up with 400,000 for bail, and who is likely to lose the lot when they can't find him.

And as for absconding, he's on an island, it shouldn't be too difficult to keep tabs on him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

soi3eddie 4259 Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 I wonder if the 400,000 Baht is the only condition of bail. No mention on restrictions from leaving the island. Question is, will he return and face the court or dissapear and forfeit the 400K? If he does a runner will they be bothered to chase him or simply bag the money? What "compensation" is the victim likely to receive? Will she be treated harsher for whatever she was alleged to have done to be in the cell in the first place? There seems to be more questions than answers with this case. Doubt there will ever be full public notice on whether proper justice is served. T.I.T.
