Kwaibill Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 (edited) I don't know that he will eligible for any "amnesties" or paroles. Anybody know the actual sentence beyond the eight years part? I believe I have read of sentences that prohibit such. Also wondering where he'll be imprisoned. I don't believe there are many "country club" jails here, but imagine some are worse than others. What are the prospects for a farang who killed a Thai? Eight years might be a death sentence. One can hope.

Liverpool Lou Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 (edited) 9 hours ago, Inala said: Eight years for such an horrific crime is laughable. What a travesty of justice. It should be appealed by the family using the 12.5m baht he's ordered to pay, but I guess that's unlikely for a bunch of reasons. Your suggestion is unlikely for only one reason...the family cannot appeal the sentence to the court.

Just as with ten thousand of other cases here. Name one of those cases. He will not be extradited to the UK, why would the UK request that? Maybe you mean "repatriation" after 1/3 of his sentence has been served? That won't happen if the compensation isn't paid, regardless of your over-imaginative claim that "tens of thousands similar claims have gone unpaid and unpunished". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That won't happen if the compensation isn't paid, regardless of your over-imaginative claim that "tens of thousands similar claims have gone unpaid and unpunished". Whilst you’re correct in saying that a prisoner cannot apply for repatriation whilst there are any outstanding fines, or any other non custodial penalties, I’m not sure that you’re correct when you say that repatriation can be applied for only after one third of the sentence imposed has been served. I’m pretty sure that the only restriction is that there must be six months left to serve and the applicant must not have any outstanding appeals. The process takes about two years from application to repatriation and the applicant has to pay for their own flights, but not that of the escorts.

They st least fid their job this time. Thai authorities don't do the extradition to Thailand, other countries do that and, if those countries don't co-operate, Thailand can do nothing about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
