Chinese Men Caught Removing Documents from Collapsed Building in Bangkok

I'd answer your question above, but doing so would be off-topic for this thread as regards COVID.

 

As regards this thread and its topic, I've always supported and endorsed relevant laws being followed and enforced, and those NOT following pertinent laws should be held to answer.

 

In this case, the Chinese law breakers were let off without serving a day in custody, despite the SUSPENDED sentence that was handed down. IMHO, they should have been given and served the sentences they received without suspension.

 

But the Thai courts decided otherwise, and it was within their legal authority to make that decision.

Authorities quickly intervened, discovering these men taking documents related to contracts, electrical engineering, and inspection requests from the site's vicinity. After verification, police seized the files, questioned the quartet, and temporarily released them after confirming their credentials and work permits.

Taking the dodgy paperwork to a safer place...

It has nothing to do with any disease. It has to do with being honest enough to call out blatantly suspicious behavior and accepting there will always be a reason why people try covering up their misdeeds. A very simple concept. Whether it is Chinese breaking into a collapsed highrise to steal documents or a bat virus lab opposite a wetmarket destroying documents and not allowing investigations is of no relevance. It is clearly dodgy behavior and there is a darned good reason for it ie attempting to hide criminality.
