snoop1130 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 The parents and guardians of five boys, aged 13-16, who are accused of fatally assaulting a mentally-challenged woman on January 10th in Aranyaprathet district of Sa Kaeo province, were asked by district police to come in for questioning today. Pol Lt-Gen Somprasong Yentuam, commissioner of the Region 2 Provincial Police Bureau, officials from the provincial social development office and the Department of the Protection of Rights and Liberties were present during the questioning. The five boys have been held in police custody since CCTV footage emerged, showing one of them taunting the victim in front of a convenience store on the night of January 10th. The footage also shows the boys forcing her onto one of their motorcycles. The victim was later found dead and is believed to have been beaten to death beside a pond near a school in the district.

Popular Post TigerandDog Posted January 19 Popular Post Share Posted January 19 The thing that gets me about this is that there is no mention of the fact that one of the boys is the son of a local cop, and that the local cops tried to frame the woman's husband, who was also mentally challenged, to the extent that they got him to re-enact their version of events. When the CCTV footage, which the local police ignored, was handed to the media that's when the police hierarchy from BKK got involved. Will be interesting to see what happens to the local cops for trying to frame the husband. 1 1 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just more corrupt behaviour from Thailand's largest criminal organisation. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangkok Barry Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 It starts to seem as if Thai kids are totally out of control. Hardly a day goes by without reports of fighting, bomb-throwing, assaults, firing guns. Maybe TAT can spin it as making the country more exciting for visitors. "Come to the wonderful family friendly resort of Pattaya and witness for yourself gang fights on the pristine beach', for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, you've got it all wrong mate, they weren't trying to frame the husband, they were just playing a joke on him! Seriously, this is the response from the police, as reported in Thaiger, when asked about the nine hours of torture and abuse they inflicted on the husband :- "They were just playing a prank on Panya. They confessed it and said they did not do it seriously." https://thethaiger.com/news/national/prosthetic-police-probe-thai-man-accuses-hopalong-cop-of-wifes-murder-confession-coercion What a sense of humour those boys in brown have.

Robbyboy Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 But in all truthfulnesses. Here in the ‘good ole USA’ we have teen Agee’s doing much the same kind of stuff. The news is full of it daily. So it isn’t just in Thailand. But the part about the Cop Parents (The boys in Brown) trying to cover it up is strongly a Thai thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that is exactly what the article says. No police force arrests the parents for the sins of the child. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
