From Thai justice and Thai police investigation?  I'll have to think about that one.

Is this the guy who killed the Brit Indian man? wife was there? sounded guilty as hell to me, wants sympathy now because looks frail, no reason not to prosecute

That 'nightmare' was self inflicted. The real nightmare was for the poor family of the man that he killed. Innocent people do not run. Well that is my personal view.

obviously letting out a nutcase killer on bail is plain stupid.

 

Any criminal worth 5 cents will go to great lengths to avoid any time in a Thai (Any Asian) prison.

 

I remember that horrifying crime.

Tell that to Juilan Assange.  There are many reasons to run from "justice", like when you are being falsely accused.  And in my personal view, nobody on this forum knows what really happened. Truth is unlikely to come out.  How can the Norwegians investigate a murder in Thailand?  And who trusts the Thai government to investigate?  I would just say an eye for an eye, extradite the guy and try him here where he allegedly committed the crime.  

He didnt break any laws in Norway. I don't know how they can do anything to him.

The consequences of self-defense are a real problem around the world. If the attacker dies, you'll likely be accused of murder even if there are witnesses. It depends on corruption of the Police sometimes as to what will happen.

His claims of self defence seem a little hard to credit when you consider all the evidence (and all the accounts of the crime apart from his) indicate that he broke into the other guy's room and killed him there - or injured him severely enough that he died shortly after.

 

Police found the British guy severely beaten and near death in his own room, and there was evidence that the door between the rooms had been broken down by Bullman when he forced his way into the family's room. 

 

It sure doesn't sound like self defence.

I remember this brutal killing clearly.  The Norwegian broke into the Indian man's room and attacked and killed the man in front of his wife. 

You, obviously, do not remember it very clearly, the dead man was British, not Indian.

The man whom he killed was an Englishman.

Article doesn't say Englishman, says UK and British

He was English, though, not Welsh, Scottish or Irish but, more relevantly, there has never been a report that he was Indian.

That would be because you're not a lawyer.

It's not unusual for some countries to prosecute their citizens for crimes committed overseas.

At the time the court granted him bail, against the wishes of the police, he had only been charged with assault, it was upped to murder later.

The details we're pretty terrifying.   In my opinion it certainly didn't merit bail.

Only if it is part of their laws. Pedos can be in some nations. Not sure about murder.

Yep with his face covered with sun-glasses and a mask he certainly looked frail, the poor lamb. My heart goes out to him.

Give him a break. The head and face furniture worked for another fugitive.

I'd guess that was why the police objected to bail.

The maximum sentence length in Norway is 21 years, but there are currently political debates about raising it to 25 years. However, you can get a punishment that says you will be in prison until you are rehabilitated and pose no danger to society (forvaring), effectively having the potential of a life sentence.

https://thenorwayguide.com/norwegian-prisons/

Not to mention how the prisons in Scandinavia are often akin to hotel rooms. I do believe in rehabilitation for most criminals though. If you treat people like animals they will often act like animals. Just look at the shambolic prison system and society in the US at the moment.

Whether he is guilty or not is irrelevant, at least now he will get a fair investigation and a fair trial.

Something that he would not have got in Thailand.

If we go by what has been published, there is little need of another investigation and it's
doubtful that the Norwegian police would find anything new 4 years after the fact.
As for fair trial, Thailand has no vested interest in one or the other party, Norway does. Maybe let the Brits investigate and process?

Brits cannot do anything to him. He is not British, no crime was done in Britain. Only Norway or Thailand can do anything.
