This has happened before, with the highest profile case being when UK police joined an investigation into the murder of two backpackers on Koh Tao.

In that case, the UK officers were here as observers, that's all, they were not, officially, part of the investigation.

So you choose not to read this part.

 

“Thailand also has the 1992 International Criminal Cooperation Act as a framework for conducting international criminal cooperation between Thailand and other countries. This Act designates the Office of the Attorney General as the central coordinating agency, with the authority to consider requests for and provide criminal cooperation between Thailand and other nations. Thailand has agreements or Mutual Legal Assistance Treaties (MLATs) with seven countries: the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, Norway, the Republic of Korea, and the People's Republic of China.”

 

Did you avoid that, because it does not meet your view?

 

Below is a Thai Government issued document “Laws on international cooperation in criminal matters”

And the treaty published on the UK government website.

all i can offer is the authorities have examined her remains and retieved their specimens for further analysis or accepted the findings of the Royal Thai Forensic Science's investigation. (bear in mind a full Toxicology analysis can take up to six weeks to complete). It appears the Inquest is open and once the results are forwarded to the Coroner, he will make a Public Finding, either meaning the end of the matter or if something requires further investigation or evidence reveals charges should be laid, then the matter will be referred to UK CID for further investigation which may bring them to Bangkok to follow up on.

how is this 'funny'.

No, it won't, the UK police have no jurisdiction to conduct investigations in other countries.

i never said they did..they would request through their respective Foreign Ministers if the the case was of importance and required further investigation.

A lot of very pure #4 in Laos.

Every drug on the planet is available in Laos, was years ago when I went but the backpackers I met were all sh!t faced. Just saying RIP Rebeca.

I'm fairly sure it has nothing to do with it but bizarrely enough, this appears to be the same person whose mother used her passport to travel abroad, back in 2019.

 

Brit mum, 58, used daughter's passport to travel - even though she's 23 in picture
