Popular Post webfact 161300 Posted February 4 Popular Post Share Posted February 4 Sanook Thai Caption: Damage to the hard disk on helmet-cams Helmet-cam footage from the police involved in the shakedown of the Taiwanese actress Charlene An outside the Chinese Embassy Bangkok in January was not deleted. Instead the devices' hard disks were damaged but the data is recoverable. Met chief Pol Lt-Gen Thiti Saengsawang said at a meeting held to discuss the case yesterday that data from three cameras had now been recovered, reported Sanook. He said that a special technical process was used to recover the images. The footage recovered lasts for many hours and he was as yet unable to say whether any of it related precisely to the case in question, namely the moment of extortion. The files are currently being examined and should wrong doing be found it will add weight to the case, said Thiti. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2023-02-04 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

If it's so bad, then maybe it's time to check if any of them is working, and if not, replace and sue the supplier. This may have been attempt to just quick format the drive and claim it's empty.

Popular Post Elkski 2709 Posted February 4 Popular Post Share Posted February 4 (edited) So did he say that all 3 were erased by someone , somehow,for some reason, but by some high tech process they now have some video data? So now we have evidence tampering as well as witness tampering. Hmmm. Sounds like lots of years. Hope those guys give you some secrets.

Popular Post Drop the dead donkey 34 Posted February 4 Popular Post Share Posted February 4 Sounds to me like hammers were used. As I doubt they even understood the concept of deletion and formatting! if they did format them and not use them again in any station selfie antics, it would be easily retrievable. Due to the fact that data is still on the drive. It is only rewritable as a unit (recorder). If it wasn’t used again for such things as station selfies, or other recordings afterwards, all the old data is retrievable. Shock to them also… bang on RTP to you’re hole that is getting bigger and deeper. Bang on to furthering the already tainted reputation of Thailand. 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaiyaTH 3133 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I suppose they transfer it to some dodgy Windows computer after their shifts, and that hard drive would be damaged (on purpose). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are 100% correct - as nothing is proven yet 🙂 I was just saying I would 'bet' that the Policeman would be in the wrong. Of course, it depends what 'evidence' there is... that is why it was a 'bet' as no one is sure at this time. 🙂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sambum 5731 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 "...............data from three cameras had now been recovered" Any bets on whether they will exonerate the cops or the lady and her companions?

spidermike007 61700 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I have long said that the RTP are highly incompetent. Now, they are shown even to be incompetent when it comes to destroying evidence of a crime they have committed. You could not make this stuff up. They are a highly corrupt version of the Keystone cops. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoreFarang 46986 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Imagine those files show all the details when the money was extorted. And then also all the details when (part of) that money was given to higher ups in the extortion food chain. Now that would be interesting. Something like: Here boss, here is your 24,300. I keep my usual 10%... P.S.: Obviously all that is just my imagination 😉 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
