Rule of law would implement an actual effort to extradite the creep. Rule of law would include an actual Interpol red notice (never really happened here for “some reason”), rule of law would indict those aiding and abetting his flight from Justice too. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly isn't equality across the board when a poor drunk, rice farmer in Isarn kills a motorcyclist and pays 50k baht, yet this guy is hounded by the ThaiVisa bashers and is exiled from the country after giving millions in compensation to the family. Some here want him to pay more just because he has lots of dough. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lived in Isarn for 20 years and knew of 3 cases where drunk people killed motorcyclists. They were all fined 50,000 baht, it's the going rate. What make you think this guy should pay more? I don't know why many foreigners are upset with this case, when it happens every day 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is the RED notice? If you search Interpol its not there, you have evidence to the contrary? Regarding the passport you are correct, but you didn't show my full post. "However in a 'real' country he would have been arrested and passport taken. Then when he obtained a false passport and left, a real country would have Interpol issue a Red notice. But look what happened!" My point being he wasn't processed by the RTP correctly, if he had maybe all this may not happened? Big IF? Interpol has confirmed in the past that the Red Notice for him was issued and they showed it. They also said that they do not show all of the thousands of notices that have been issued (in the region of 8,500 at the time) on the publicly accessible website. There is no need for them to do that as member police forces do not get their Interpol data/information regarding those Notices from a public website. At the time he left the country he hadn't been served with the arrest warrant that's why he hadn't been arrested again after being released following the initial arrest immediately after the accident. He left on his Thai passport, that was widely reported, as was the subsequent revocation of that passport. There have been no reports of him using a false passport as you keep asserting. Reports assumed that he must be travelling on a passport issued by another country, that would be a real passport, not a fake one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Tongue Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 11 hours ago, Liverpool Lou said: Yes, Interpol does issue the notices, that's why they are called "Interpol" notices but they may be issued by Interpol at the request of a member police force. There was a Red Notice issued for Vorayuth, it was shown in the media. The reason that it's not seen on the public website is that there are thousands. (8,000+) of notices currently in force and they aren't all shown on that website, Interpol has explained that on a few occasions. Police forces do not need a public website to get their information. Interpol notices are advisories to member forces they are not instructions to apprehend, neither are they warrants, to act on them or ignore them is up to the member police forces. Boss, is that you? Ahem, The legal basis for a Red Notice is an arrest warrant or court order issued by the judicial authorities in the country concerned. Many of our member countries consider a Red Notice to be a valid request for provisional arrest. https://www.interpol.int 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunLA Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 It's all in the past. He worked the system quite well, as anyone, inclusive, would do. Don't think Interpol will accept a red notice for a pending traffic violation ... ???? The family benefitted beyond belief, only because who's grandson he is. 30 mill, instead of 200k baht, as the standard highest compensation given in these situations. If would have fessed up in the beginning, and not been the 'grandson', probably wouldn't have gotten jail time anyway. It's only news because of who he is. Did the little rich kid screw up big time, of course. But if had been some village kid, in a rickety pick up truck, the insurance would have paid 200k, and he'd probably gotten a suspended sentence or 6 months at most.
