Thais never, ever admit to a mistake as they would lose face. It becomes a misunderstanding. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"According to security camera footage, on Tuesday (Aug 3) she walked out of the hotel about 11.25am to Ao Yon beach. At 11.48am she walked alone on Ao Yon-Khao Khat Road towards Ao Yon waterfall...."

The Polices job of looking for the suspect "is finished" . The Police meant that their man hunt is over because they believe they have caught the offender . There will still be a trail before a Judge and he will decide whether hes guilty or not 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malcoml Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 The Thai police are quite efficient as the community work with them. When living in Thailand I saw break and enters solved very quickly as there was always someone who saw something and they are happy to talk to the police. In the west people stay quiet… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Scouse123 Posted August 8, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 8, 2021 Maybe he did, maybe he didn't commit this crime. What we do know is there is a lot of pressure from government to solve this quickly with their failed sandbox scheme and bad publicity is seen as destroying the image of a main source of tourist income and bringing into question safety on Thai islands. My Thai family have never been keen on visiting Thai islands. I know they are gossip mongers without facts, but many times they have said they islands are just mafia controlled, and have no wish to go. That is concerning. Furthermore, the speed at which they are announcing this with just some footage showing he was on his motorbike in the area and no DNA back yet from Bangkok. They would carry more respect and less skepticism, if they say they are awaiting DNA and tests results, not blurting out ' Case closed ' I don't like Thai police confessions and I know for a fact that many of the horror stories are true. Plastic bags over heads to suffocate, attacking parts of the body other than the face, etc Also I am dubious about the Police General who announces ' There is not a scapegoat in this case ' as if he knew he was going to be accused of it. Do we all recall this being said about the Burmese two those years ago and it was anything but a clearcut case??, but once a Police General had announced it after a cursory walk around the beach days later at the crime scene, without any concrete evidence whatsoever, Prayut and all the others, closed their ears to any other options. They then set about MAKING the evidence fit the crime. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and that is BAD, and encourages and pressurizes the local plod, with limited intelligence, to find a ' scapegoat ' I am not defending him, I will wait and hope the DNA is fairly done and conclusive. I just don't want an innocent man in jail and life ruined whilst the real criminal carries on regardless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pattaya Spotter Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 (edited) 2 hours ago, grain said: Any word about DNA match yet? Rape? So presumably there's semen, it's highly unlikely the rapist managed to put on a condom during the struggle. The reports say there was attempted rape but she fought back and this surprised the suspect and he killed her (suspect's account). He may never got his pants off...but his DNA is probably under victim's fingernails as he's reportedly pretty scratched up.

As for the local "plod", they were there, but not running the show as in the Koh Tao murder case. Quote from Phuket News: "Senior, experienced police investigators were immediately dispatched to the island to take command of the investigation and ensuing manhunt. The task was not left to local police until it was clear that the task was beyond their capabilities." https://www.thephuketnews.com/phuket-opinion-how-to-catch-a-killer-80972.php 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
