Thailand news - Thailand's deputy police chief Surachete Hakparn has returned from Germany and declaring that the allegations against Pattaya Police, relating to a Deutsche Welle documentary, were unfounded. But a letter sent to TNT suggests the contrary.

 

Four men in Pattaya have led police on a merry kidnap chase, only to be found as a hoax, Bangkok motorists being asked to use public transport to reduce PM2.5 air pollutants,3 drownings in a week - in Rayong and around the Similan Islands, British base jumps dies after jumping off a Pattaya condo.

What about the group who owned the bar pimping out kids, were they cleared as well?

The German perp has probably realized that underage sex, skipping bail and paying bribes are all illegal, so probably best not to admit to them. Without a doubt the story's a titillating beat up to make Thailand look bad, so Germans can feel self righteous and ignore their own huge sex industry.

 

People love to look down on Asian women. Tim Newton has covered this story extensively, almost obsessively, implying without evidence, that underage prostitution is rife here. Sex sells. Seems there's a lot of 'unethical' things going on.

The big joke sure likes to declare war on petty criminals, but when it comes to his own he's right there to protect them. We all know how corrupt they are, and most of us know how corrupt he is. He is simply a very good actor, who is the deflector in chief. 

of course they are cleared... who ever thought they would do something wrong?
