rubl Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Well all the revisionists on this site who claimed that the army never shot anyone, got a big slap on their faces today when the DSI confirmed that at least 26 of the 92 deaths have been caused by the Army . Shame on you for negating the obvious for so long . And 16 by the UDD led forces, those 'peaceful protesters, not terrorists'. Play it safe, avoid the truth, grant amnesty to all (deserving).

They are holding a demonstration at the Intersection to commemorate those killed in the crackdowns against red-shirt protesters two years ago.

squiz Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 The DSI are saying the military were responsible for at least 25 of the deaths and the UDD for at least 12, the evidence was not clear enough to place blame for the other 52 deaths. So the UDD are responsible for almost half the deaths at present. I hope they mention this at Ratchaprasong. I don't understand your Maths. Based on the numbers supplied, the UDD would be less than 1/3, the military just over 2/3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you really mean 16 by the UDD led forces, rubl? Wouldn't want the wrong figures taken as fact here, would we? I can kind of understand the confusion if you're going by this report by MCOT DSI: Thai state officials connected to 22 deaths in 2010 protest BANGKOK, May 19 – Thailand’s Department of Special Investigation (DSI) said on Friday it has concluded that 16 deaths during the 2010 political riots might have been caused by state officials, while 12 other deaths may be caused by red shirt protesters DSI Chief Tharit Pengdit said there is solid evidence proving state officials were involved with the deaths of 16 out of 89 persons during the April-May 2010 protest of the United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD), the red shirt movement. The cases have been forwarded to the metropolitan police to conduct further investigation but police also asked more investigation files of six other deaths from the department, Mr Tharit said. Altogether 22 deaths might have been due to state officials, the DSI chief said, adding several cases are already in court. Mr Tharit however noted that among 89 deaths, 12 were believed to have been killed by the red shirts, while in another 55 cases the identity of the killers were not yet identified. http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/556163-thai-state-officials-connected-to-22-deaths-in-2010-protest-dsi/ Which is confusing enough but then the other paper quotes the same Mr Tharit as saying that 25 deaths were due to the security forces. The only stable number so far has been the 12 attributable to the red shirts, but I am sure I saw a figure of 9 being used just last week. Times they are a changing.

Glad you realize that your red buddies were indeed vicious mass murdering terrorists! Good to read that you (and especially you!) have the guts to admit these senseless killings, most likely orchestrated by a dark force from some desert state.

Considering the 'red shirts' & 'black shirts' were using military weapons, those deaths could very easily have been committed by the 'red shirts' & 'black shirts'.

culicine Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Yes would be interesting to know what this "solid evidence" is. Surely they are not basing it solely on military weapon use / bullets embedded in bodies, given the use of military weapons by the red/black shirts.
