PHUKET: A killer out on bail for shooting dead two rival motorbike taxi drivers at Phuket Bus Terminal 2, north of Phuket Town, in January has struck again, shooting dead another motorbike taxi driver at the interprovincial bus terminal late last night (Dec 4).

 

Police were called to the bus station at 10:30pm, where they were shown where the victim, Champa Wanchan, 54, was shot dead while sitting in a white plastic chair in the parking area for motorcycle taxis.

 

By the time police arrived, Mr Champa had been rushed to Mission Hospital Phuket, before being transferred to Vachira Phuket Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

So by this time next week he will have topped up his bail and walking free again looking for victim #4. Could only happen in Thailand!

And the US!

That is one mad moto man! Why was he "out on bail"??? No priors...other than the 2 murders?!? But don't sell a beer in your restaurants. Typically Thailand!

“…many of the people at the bus station described him as ‘a nice guy’…”.

 

Yes, yes he seems ‘very nice’. How many people must he kill to be considered ‘not very nice’?

I’m not sure which is more frightening, being shot at by a motorbike taxi driver or being driven around by one!

Shoot and kill 2 people and get out on bail so you can kill again , put 3 fingers in the air and ask for democracy and reforms put in jail whit no bail , I can feel the happiness Prayut have bring to the country amazing Thailand.

No, there are other countries in which the same thing could have happened also.

I think they were referring to the victim, although it is poorly worded

3 cheers for the Thai "Justice System", hip hip hooray!

Bail can, in certain circumstances, be granted to those charged with murder in the UK, US and  European countries also!  "Hip! Hip! Hooray!" for their justice systems also!

He killed 2 already , did some jail time , was allowed to roam the streets again ,

He has not been found guilty of any killings yet, he was on bail in order to prepare his defence to the first charges, so he has not "done any jail time and subsequently been allowed to roam the streets again".
