The main suspect in a luxury mansion shooting in Pattaya last week where two police officers who were part of a team serving a search warrant were shot remains in custody at a prison in Banglamung. Meanwhile, the visas of six other foreigners residing or associated with the mansion have been canceled according to Region 2 Police officers.

 

First, let us recap the situation so far with this particular case.

 

Two police officers from the Region 2 Police (Chonburi) sustained serious injuries from gunshot wounds after bringing a search warrant to a luxury mansion reportedly occupied by foreign nationals in Huay Yai around 5:00 P.M. on May 19th, 2021. The full report of the prior incident can be found below.

 

Officers from the Anti Money Laundering Office (ALMO) on Friday (May 21st) inspected the luxury mansion that was the site of a shooting of two police officers who were part of a team serving a search warrant when they were reportedly opened fire upon by a foreign national holding a passport from St. Kitts and Nevis. The information around this investigation can also be found below.

Officers from the Anti Money Laundering Office ( ALMO ).     ok !

They said this was an online gambling operation but the timing is suspicious after the announcement of a huge drugs haul in Australia earlier in the week - an announcement that was possibly delayed from the date of actual find

St. Kitts and Nevis, eh? A financial haven where citizenships are bought. 

Always say Thailand needs to do a better job of criminal records checks before these good-for-nothings are allowed entry to the Kingdom.

Thailand and other SEA countries have long been a 'Mecca' for laundering money and escaping the law from overseas.  Lots of legitimate businesses set up on the back of crooked money offshore with excons and others who were never caught.  Carnage of lost lives, drug addictions, financial loss etc so these scumbags can set up home over here and then flaunt their wealth.

The visas of common visitors would have been cancelled on entry at a border and a permission to stay with end date entered into their passports. Only now have the visas of these individuals been cancelled implies they have entered Thailand illegally yet could have entered legally. ????

Not sure I could even afford to fill the tank......

From the linked article...

 

Visas of other six foreigners, who were identified as two Myanmar nationals and four Chinese nationals who lived at the mansion have been canceled, according to Region 2 police. All six are set to be deported once the investigation around the current incident is completed and remained at the Banglamung police station as of press time. The exact reason for the cancelation of their visas was not stated by relevant law enforcement officials to The Pattaya News or associated local press.

 

Guilt by association? What happened to due process?
