Pattaya – Forensic Police from Chonburi Region 2 have inspected the burnt remains of the Nashaa Club on Pattaya Walking Street for what they said was the last time before coming to a conclusion on the cause of the fire.

 

First, as a reference:

A major fire broke out at night in September during a mandatory Covid-19 curfew at a closed nightclub on Walking Street in Pattaya, causing an estimated millions of baht in damage according to fire officials. The article is below.

 

MAJOR FIRE CAUSES SERIOUS DAMAGE TO WALKING STREET NIGHTCLUB IN PATTAYA

 

Now, for the update:

A team from Chonburi Forensic Police Region 2 yesterday (November 13th) inspected the remains of the club. Months after the fire, the cause has still been under a broad investigation amid alleged disputes regarding the cause between those involved with the venue.

 

Major General Thanong Thongpradap, the Commander of the Forensic Police Region 2, told the associated Thai press, “This is our last scheduled inspection before we will conclude the cause of the fire.”

Ah, the old 'make us a last offer to us to declare it not arson for your insurance claim' ploy !

So  the way to investigate and determine the cause of a fire is to go back months later after numerous heavy thunderstorms and mooch around in the cinders..... giving over the opportunity for anyone involved to tamper with the site beforehand?

If the forensic people do there job properly there would not be any doubt or 'disputes' about the cause of the fire. But I suppose that doing their job properly is beyond them.

This is the way the investigation works so as to not state it was iffy!

Thus allowing an insurance claim to continue smoothly.

The longer the deliberation, the fatter the envelope.

So I guess the outcome depends on who made the biggest offer...the owners or the insurance company...

Kind of a broad estimate there...

What's still there is a pile of rubble & scrap metal, mostly demolished, and well tramped over.  Forensics better be good to get any clues from that!  ????

Aside from the Envelopes; this what you get when you give anybody a jacket with 'Forensic Police' on the back when they know little or nothing about the job they are supposed to be doing.  If they are 'Trained' as well as the rest of the Force; like Traffic Policemen who have admitted on several occassions they don't know the Traffic Laws, then it's Dumb and Dumber staring at a pile of rubble and ashes !

I wonder if they've spotted the big gas tank in the middle of the photo?????

 

Could be a clue.
