bradiston Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 One thing I never understand is how the police locate someone just from a CCTV picture. Ok, you've got a picture of them, but how does that lead to their exact whereabouts and subsequent apprehension? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't understand why Russians...who mostly supported or still support Puttin are allowed to travel anywhere! They should NOT be welcome anywhere! Instead they stroll around Pattaya and Phuket like they own the fuc$ing place! They probably do own a fair bit of it with the help of straw men and brown envelopes, works well in London. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say make her physically clean and remove it all and then charge her, fine her and blacklist her. Absolute scum when people think it's OK to destroy other people's property.

connda Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 (edited) Let Thailand remain neutral, otherwise, this is what happens. Thailand don't want farangs tagging their country with graffiti. We've seen the response to that in the past. Just come here, relax, and chill out. Let go of Geo-politics on the other side of the globe during your stay. Enjoy your vacation! That's the purpose of a vacation, right? Not to drag all your troubles and woes with you. Those problems will still be there when you board your plane to return home (or wherever you're going).

connda Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 (edited) This part was left out: Colonel Chatree told the Phuket Express that regardless of the woman’s apologies that she is still facing charges of vandalism. Chatree added that the charge is strictly for vandalism and not for expressing political views, adding that there are more appropriate ways to express ones opinions and thoughts than deface a well known landmark and viewpoint. The vandalism act has drawn significant and polarizing chatter on social media, with Russians widely criticizing the act and many Ukrainians and westerners supporting it. Thais, meanwhile, mostly expressed outrage for the act of defacing a famous viewpoint, regardless of the context of the speech.????Thais are the only ones who count as it's their country. ???? It will be interesting to see what happens to her. I remember some kids from the UK tagging 'the ancient wall' at Thapae Gate in Chiang Mai and they were threatened with jail time. After lots of pointing, groveling, and apologizing I believe they were simply fined. Same, same here my guess. They were threatened with 10 years in jail, but got off with a 100K THB fine each and were encouraged to leave the country before the judge changed his mind. Interesting, they were not banned from returning. I guess we'll see unless this is memory-holed in the press.
