Trial of Canadian murder suspect will be in Bangkok, not Phuket

Followers

June 1, 20233 yr

A suspect in a Phuket gangland murder, recently extradited from Canada, will be tried in Bangkok, the authorities have confirmed. According to a Phuket News report, Sermphan Sirikong, chief of the Phuket Provincial Police, says Matthew Dupre will stand trial in Bangkok, instead of at Phuket Provincial Court, on the island where the crime was committed.

Dupre, who arrived back in the kingdom on a Thai Air Force plane on Sunday, May 28, is currently being held in a Bangkok prison. He is charged with murdering Indian-Canadian gangland figure Jimi Sandhu, who was gunned down outside his Rawai villa after driving into the villa’s driveway and getting out of his car in February 2022.

Sermphan says that, while the crime took place in Phuket, it has wider links to international criminal activities.

The Reform UK leader resigned his Clacton seat insisting voters—not Westminster—should judge the allegations surrounding his finances. If re-elected, Farage says he will return to Parliament with an

'LEAVING MAGA': Former Trump supporters REVEAL why they left

https://leavingmaga.org/ Dear MAGA Americans, I was a devoted member of MAGA nation for seven years; it made me feel I was part of something important: a movement that was trying to save American democracy. But starting in 2021, I realized I had been mistaken. It took me a full year to finally break away. During that time, I came to understand that MAGA is sustained by a series of myths that are intended to create perpetual feelings of desperation and panic. Succumbing to these predatory myths
