snoop1130 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 BANGKOK (NNT) - Police have said they will summon former Democratic Party deputy leader Prinn Panitchpakdi to answer a charge of indecent exposure next week. Deputy Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Bureau Pol Maj Gen Trairong Piwpa met with investigators from the Lumpini police station on Saturday (14 May) to discuss the multiple charges of sexual harassment and indecent exposure against Prinn. The case involves a woman who accused the ex-Democrat of indecent exposure in a restaurant in 2013 and rape in 2014. However, the authorities said the 2014 alleged rape cannot be investigated because the victim did not report it within the three months that it took place.

Prinn is the son of Supachai Panitchpakdi, a former vice prime minister in the 1990s. Supachai has served as the secretary-general of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development. Prinn announced his resignation from the Democratic Party coalition on April 14 to defend himself against multiple allegations of sexual harassment and rape. -- © Copyright NNT 2022-05-16 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

Three months? Amazed it's not three hours. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dogmatix Posted May 16, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 16, 2022 This guy is going for the Guinness Book of Records on rape allegations. Odd the 2014 rape allegation cannot be investigated but the 2013 alleged flashing can. In the UK I believe there is no statute of limitations on rape and sexual abuse, although the Met declined to charge Randy Andy. I guess Prinn will get off eventually because these things are hard to prove and money and status talk. However, he is probably going to be kept busy shuffling between police stations and court rooms for the next year or two. His bank balance might be a bit dented at the end of it too. Not sure if he can easily revive his dazzling political career and ambitions to be PM. But having an unsavory background is not usually much of a problem in Thai politics. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were never any allegations of UK crimes so there wouldn't be any charges. Back to the topic, we've had MPs shooting their wife dead at the dinner table, MPs convicted of smuggling drugs, and MPs that overthrew the elected government by force. Charges of feeling up a few hi-so women seem trivial in comparison. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Purdey Posted May 16, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 16, 2022 Such a creepy guy. Always chasing skirt when I knew him. Had to drag my female staff away when he got insistent on asking them out. All done with daddy's money so this is just a hiccup in his life. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
