webfact Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 The Royal Thai Police explained that it has handled the Rohingya human trafficking case with fairness to all the suspects who have been arrested, with none of them being granted bail or given privileges during the police investigation. Pol Gen Roy Inkhapairote, the deputy national police chief, issued the explanatory statement in response to allegations, in recent interview given to Al Jazeera TV by exiled Pol Maj-Gen Paween Pongsirin, former deputy commissioner of Region 8 Provincial Police, that Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwan, then the defence minister, had interfered in the police probe by demanding that an important suspect, Lt-Gen Manat Kongpanm, an army advisor, be granted bail.

Popular Post mikebell Posted May 2, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 2, 2022 'Thai Police deny interference' - SOP. Rarely does a Thai say 'it's a fair cop, Gov,' because there aren't many - fair cops. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post RandiRona Posted May 2, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 2, 2022 I am really surprised that it came out. I am sure cops were embarrassed as trafficking is very normal in this part of the world. But like always big fish got away! 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post SomchaiCNX Posted May 2, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 2, 2022 Ask any massage business if they can operate without the help of cops. Deny deny deny until people start to believe your lies. Well, I don't believe you but I think that General Paween has hit a weak spot. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thaibook Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Denials of this type, without willingness to be open and transparent, simply increases lack of trust in anything the Royal Thai Police. Remember, the RTP was set up specifically to spread corruption and not allow one minister or group hog more than his share. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Misterwhisper Posted May 2, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 2, 2022 Let me think... who am I going to believe... ...an Al Jazeera report in which a scared-out-of-his-wits former chief investigator was interviewed after having been forced to seek asylum in Australia as his life would have been in danger if he had remained in Thailand... ...or the damage-control face-saving statement of a national police commissioner who claims that the entire investigation was 100% above board and that no interference whatsoever had taken place? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
