money talks! the whole story is just pathetic

All going to plan 

This headline is a joke and a lie...as well as a decade too late. 

Simple reward issued by dead policeman's  family will see a bounty hunter bring this lil pos back in less than a week

 

BTW: where are all the enraged Thai netizens?

Here is something they can sink their computers into.

 

Start posting wanted posters all over the internet...start a go fund me reward & offer it.

Then at least the perp will not be at all the F1 races etc like he has been all these years partying till his charges time out

If he escapes prosecution then EVERY police and justice official concerned with the case from day 1 should be arrested, held without bail, ALL their bank accounts siezed and they should be charged with corruption and dereliction of duty. 

 

Of course this will never happen but it will give the PM an easy way to overhaul the police and justice system as he promised he would back in May 2014.

The accounts and assets of the spouses and the offspring also need looking at.

 

Concerned??

Doubt that, I thought it  was going to plan.

No police force in the West wherever he is staying will dare to arrest him. He is too powerful and rich for that. He can corrupt anything, not just Thai authorities.

Maybe time for a bounty hunter..

Too much chilli ????

I am of the opinion  that  the statute of limitations only applies  if no  action has commenced against an accused person.

Should a   warrant, or indictment  been issued, alleging a crime,  the  statute of limitations  does not apply, and the matter stays in existance until such time as the accused person is  captured, if ever.,  as "an action"  has legally commenced.

So in this case, if a warrant or indictment  for  the little flea  be in existance,  there is no time limitation.      Does anyome here know  if there is such documentation in  existance, I have never seen mention of  same.

If indeed a "red notice"  has been issued by Interpol,  there would most definitely  be   either one issued by the Thai authorities, as a "red notice"  requests  any police  agency  locating the accused to arrest him immediately, on a "provisional warrant"  issued in the   country where found, until    Thais authorites attend    that country with the original document, to then seek  the accuseds extradition.          Also it is not always  imperitive that    any two countries  have an extradition treaty in existance between them,  the government of the country where an accused  may be arrested, can grant the release of the accused to  authorities of the seeking country.  This has been done  several times in the past.

Utter bs, there is an Interpol Red Notice on his name, and so he should be arrested and returned to Thailand, but he hasn't! Several people even claim to have seen him in Abu Dhabi celebrating Max Verstappen's (stolen) championship! But he wasn't arrested, guess why!?

 

With a net worth of over $24.5 billion in the family, they are extremely wealthy. Jeffrey Epstein was a nobody in comparison with only $577 million, and still managed to corrupt justice in the US for quite some time.

I don't know why anyone is surprised. This was all planned out from day 1, and is all going as intended.

 

Concern is not a word I would have used.

The case was “compromised” from beginning to end, the premier’s office said on September 1, 2020, calling the entire procedure “dishonest”.

I am confused. The Thai government has shown it can amend, bend and change the highest laws in the country (the constitution) at the drop of a hat in order to outlaw  their political rivals... Shouldn't they be able to do the same in a case they themselves call corrupted from the beginning, hmm?

Wissanu, got any legal opinion here? No?

Watchman, got any excuses? No?

Prayut, got any balls? No?

Exactly, it should be reported to the government as fake news ????

They are worth nowhere near that my little friend; the company maybe (mainly Austrian; read: not Australian in case you were wondering) but not this pinhead quirk. But immaterial in any case; rich wouldn’t matter, if the cause was there he’d be swallowing his soap as we speak.
Anyway, think yourself lucky. After years of listening to such tat that you are lucky you get any sort of acknowledgment. 

Simple question - why is there even a statute of limitations? Why do we decide that after a certain number of years the crime doesn't matter anymore. Bizarre.

An off topic post about Yingluck Shinawatra has been removed. 

Yes, it's obvious by the comments, no one here is surprised. I would be very surprised if the Thai Judiciary (or the gov.) managed to find a way to keep him on the wanted list indefinitely. But 'there you go', I am not a 'legal eagle' nor (cough) a 'politician' and I am sure that the same would apply if it had been a foreigner who committed the crime and was in hiding somewhere waiting for the statute to expire. 

There are 12 Thai Nationals on Interpol's Red list, Vorayuth is not on that list.

When you read the charges for People on that list from other Nations, the charges are fairly detailed and clear, for the Thai, however, it is ridiculously short and confusing, many of them just say "carried out the act of smuggling of migrants" (most are about smuggling) and "abduction" with no descriptive information whatsoever.

Thai public prosecutors have expressed concern that they may not be able to indict Red Bull heir, Vorayuth “Boss” Yoovidhya, on a drug abuse charge before the time allowed under the statute of limitations for the offence runs out in the next eight months.
 

Only because they never had any intention of indicting him for anything. 

The logos on his cap say it all!

Where they ever expected to? Blatant corruption from the beginning!

Thai prosecutors concerned

Yoda says: "Concerned are you, young padawan? Do, or do not. There is no try. The farce is strong with this lot."

'...concerned...' my eye.  What a load of garbage.  Nobody has shown the least 'concern' about bringing this murderer to justice.  Just more cheap lip service while the clock continues to run out.  Expect another announcement of 'concern' in a few months.   Pathetic.  

Hmmm…. It was deliberately missed years go , I suggest.

As usual, the real reasons behind this lack of apprehension are not being discussed. When you run a nation built upon a foundation that only protects the elite, the super wealthy, those that are well connected, those in power, and a spectacularly corrupt army, and then you reach out to nations that observe the rules of law and order for help, you get ignored, scorned, and ridiculed. Nobody is listening to you these days, much less Interpol. Cha Cha, you are NOT a serious man. 98% of Thailand knows this, and most of the world does too. 7 toxic years has proven that time and time again.

The real problem is, they will not go after these guys. Not the top bankers, not the high ranking guys, not the provincial authorities, and certainly not the army, or the police. They are all corrupt beyond imagination. And the level of corruption simply escalates, the further up the food chain you go. They police and army are not expected to be honest, and they are not expected to engage in law enforcement, traffic or public safety, on any level. It is an irrevocably broken and dysfunctional system. Any hyperbole to the contrary, is just a smoke screen, intended to deceive the most naive amongst us.

The Anti-Corruption Organization of Thailand (ACT) is one of the most feeble and ineffective of all the tools Prayuth has used to deceive the people into believing that he is fighting corruption. Who was the last high level authority, in the police, immigration, the army, or the active administration they arrested, charged, tried convicted, and sent to prison? Nobody. Zero. Nunca. Nada. Why? Because Prayuth has had a mandate from the beginning to do the very opposite. To protect the elite, the super wealthy who are guilty, those that are connected, and those who are in power.

 

Just think Dark Tao. Just think Red Bull. The list goes on, and on, and on. Only the most naive amongst us believe he or ACT secretary-general Mana Nimitmongkol are sincere about this. 

It barely matters. These guys are above the law. Any and all laws. The only time they are arrested is when it becomes big news, or it is reported internationally, and Thailand gets a ton of egg on it's face. And even then, it normally does not result in a conviction. Very, very few current (not former) police, immigration, customs, cabinet officials, army officials, or administration officials are arrested here, tried, convicted and imprisoned.

The corruption here is never ending. And to think that tiny P. came into office with the agenda of cleaning the place up. LOL. About as amusing, and about as sincere as Trump draining the swamp. Nothing ever got cleaned up. If anything, things are filthier under the army, then they were before. 

When you have an administration that is built solely upon a foundation of cronyism, favoritism, and corruption, you end up with alot of morally bankrupt people, with ridiculous amounts of money. It gives them an Ivory Tower consciousness, and seems to foster a level of pathology that manifests itself as a dislike of the common man, a lack of respect for anyone who is not very wealthy, and a system of patronage, that only the toxic urchins within the army, the administration, the police, immigration, customs, and the elite of society benefit from.
 
For the masses, woe is them. And woe is Thailand.

So now I’m supposed to believe some random fella in TVF over Forbes… You guys have no limit really ???? 

 

Jeffrey Epstein with far less money and power molded Justice for far longer and it worked great for him (until it didn’t, but that’s another matter). 
 

The Interpol Red Notice is there and it’s public, one can only wonder why Mr. Yoovidhya hasn’t been arrested, while staying in the West… How easy it is to bash Thailand, but let’s not forget he is in the west.

it is a shame most of the Thai police do a great job when allowed, so they only being held back by a couple of top guys who will face the court after the general retires, and a question if the general has quit the army shouldent he be fined for impersonating an army officer when he wears his army uniform?

Well ! Who would of thought that time would run out.
