Would you like Thaksin back at the helms or who do you prefer?

Absolutely not, you know he was a police men (colonel) as well or did you forget where he learned all his dirty tricks.

That's new to me. I didn't know he was a policeman but Prayuth is a military man....

He has instigated charges of murder against Pol Col Thitisan Uthanaphol, chief of the Muang Nakhon Sawan police who is on the run. 

every one of these evil #### that entered that room is complicit and they should all be charged with murder 

 

It is a good insite into how the police operate here - not only the police but also the medic involved - anyone wondering what happened on Koh Tao need look no further - every aspect of that investigation was twisted beyond belief 

 

shamful

Don't you remember the police station in Kalasin?

https://www.refworld.org/docid/503cc5092.html

I am sure that this is normal procedure in many police stations in this country.

How much of the money this fine colonel "extracted" from his victims have gone to his superiors?

Very sad case, after being found guilty of murder the police where given bail whilst their appeal was heard despite objections from family and witnesses who said they had been threatened over the years leading up to the case being heard. The family and witnesses had their witness protection removed during the appeal process and in 2018, twelve years after it happened, all 6 policemen were found not guilty due to a lack of credible witnesses, some of whom had since disappeared and some had died in mysterious circumstances.

What are the chances of this lot actually facing any justice?

Bit strange that his transferred and not put in jail directly while the investigation is ongoing. The fact that he is on the run will probably mean he will never be found. The police does not like their dirty laundry out.

 

The police needs reforming and officers should be punished much harsher for corruption and stuff like this. As long as they can operate like this nobody will trust the police.

A Task for 'Big Joke' ? ????????

It's disgusting how these people abuse their power, but I have my full confidence that the Thai government will bring all those involved to justice by transferring them to inactive posts.

The song remains the same only it's sung elsewhere. They learnt this system from the Catholic Church.

I am wondering how they will treat the anti Government protestors if you see this. I knew already that they use there fists to investigate people, but this is a bit over the top. To clean the RTP there should be some policemen from abroad have to come to Thailand to educate them, as they did in Iraq after Saddam Hussein... 

cops are thugs, look at America

Back in the early 90s, my brother in law died in police custody in a Thai police station. He was a lovely guy. Nothing anybody could do back then. Suspicion was, he refused to talk.

Why did the police arrest him?

 

  • Popular Post

All the other officers should be charged as accessory to murder I’ve watched the video not one of them attempted to stop this killing calling for them to be dismissed is a joke they should all stand trial 

my guess is they didn't get the memo about the camera in the squad room

He is "on the run", why aren't all those in the room under arrest?

He was working as a drug mule running from the far north down to Bangkok. So yes, a dangerous activity, but very few employment opportunities, except in the local tobacco factory for 15 THB per day or whatever. My mother in law was simply contacted one day to come and collect her son's body. My wife and I were in England. Apart from the impotent rage I felt, it taught me that fear of the Thai authorities is, at times, your best friend.

The RTP won't be clean and corruption free until they clean it out of dirty cops, starting from the top down. That scumbag copper has obviously done this many times before in order to live a hiso life, not in line with his yearly wealth and he would have been greasing RTP senior management wheels ( his bosses) since day 1. You don't flaunt that sort of wealth if you haven't got protection.

And here I was watching the news this morning as it was a major story and I thought to myself why not just say he died from Covid.  Why not say he was spitting so you threw the bag on his head, and then the news shows the forensic team all dressed in full PPE's and a covid response vehicle at the station, and I thought what are the odds that the police will be quarantined, the suspect found to have had Covid, and the case swept away.  Of course that's just my view, and would seem to align with all of the past practices by this country.....just saying.

Please don't serve them with solutions ????

No "lengthy prison" for him.
Just a transfer to a "non-active" post.

Well if he has any sense, he will use the Honda Civc as his getaway car......the Lamborghini might be a bit of a giveaway when trying to stay low.

Personally, I would be more concerned about the rights of people in custody, and of people accused of something. Also, protection of human rights comes to mind.
Then the image of the Police would improve as a matter of course,
and Police would be your Best Friend, to Protect and to Serve !!

So this police chief or whatever he was drove a Lamborghini and lived way above his means and no one thought it suspicious or a bit odd!! being on the take for years and will never see the inside of a prison cell. He's out the country already and you probably wont hear about it again. The drug dealer offer 1 million but he wanted 2 million and was determined to get it...funny its all over Thai social media with the actual unedited video but not the news on here...

Have you ever seen an angry Thai person think before they do something? It´s one of society´s big dilemmas.

Have you ever seen a Thai "think at all"?

What a bunch of ANIMALS! And they call themselves Buddhists. What a disgrace they are to anything civilized and human.

 

And of course all it is about now, is not losing face, because they got exposed. And it is back to the… “we are sorry and here is some money for victims family”

 

A VERY sick culture were doing a crime is okay as long as you do not get caught and “lose face”.

Why does this remind me of Koh Tao ??

We can guess that something similar happened in Koh Tao....and MANY other cases across the country, for money or "confessions."
