The ruse worked, didn't it? It caused enough delays and confusion to have most of the charges expire, while the two remaining ones' statutes of limitation are up within the next couple of years. For all intends and purposes Nate has delivered a marvelous job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millcx Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 7 hours ago, Spock said: Even now, if they really want to catch the heir, they could have him back in Thailand in no time at all. To make someone who is probably guilty as hell of corruption and taking bribes the fall guy, after he has resigned and is living overseas, is just a token gesture. The Thai authorities have no intention of catching this guy. It's an indictment of the government, police and the Thai people. Such is the level of apathy among Thais, I doubt that many people truly care if the heir is brought to justice. Meanwhile they will continue to treat convicted prisoners as a sub human race, while turning a blind eye to the most heinous criminal of all. How many Thais are boycotting Red Bull products in protest? My bet is none. I hear Anutin has a Red Bull Carpet welcome Back for the murderer and a medal for all the disruption the Dirty Falange put him through “;0) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Almer Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 6 hours ago, spidermike007 said: Strictly a face saving measure. Likely he was instructed NOT to pursue the case, and likely Interpol has been ignoring the supposed red notice, as they likely do not consider Thailand credible. Everyone knows this guy, and every other super rich person here is above the law. Any and all laws. No sincerity at all in this false gesture. Who was the last very rich person, top cop, top immigration, customs or army official here, who was arrested, tried, convicted and sentenced to prison? Bet you can't name one.

Several years ago I was in the south of Thailand and was birding a little known national park. I stopped at a restaurant close to the park for lunch and they had several endangered animals being served. I asked the waitress who owned the restaurant and she said the local police chief. You could literally go in order your endangered species and have it served to you in a matter of minutes. Edited May 19, 2022 by garyk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
