jaapfries Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 It would be useful to have some more details as to this alleged crime & criminal. What's the "Dutch" angle here; is the father of the victim a Dutchman, or is the alleged rapist a man from the Low-Lands ? Any links to this story, other than a guy singin' about it ?

Concerned Dutchman Its quite clear that the concerned person a Thai tourguide is and that these guys that are singing are artists. One is pretending or really the father. But i too like to know more.

likewise Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Last month I translated in court for a rape case, the offender had just been released for the rape of a Thai woman, 2 days after his release he goes on and raped a foreign tourist and was once again released on bail. I posted on this forum and quite a few were giving me a hard time because I didn't agree with the perpetrator being released on bail. I have translated in quite a few cases and 99% of the time the accused was released on bail, even once in a robbery/kidnapping where the court of first hearing handed down a 15 years and 9 months sentence, they released them on bail till the appeal court will make a decision. It comes down to the simple fact that if you can pay the set bail amount, out you go unless of course you are a foreigner ! We can have long discussion about the right/pro/cons of bail but out here they seem to take it all very lightly. Concerning long sentences also that is a hoax, a Thai suspect I know of got 10 years for attempted murder and actually spend 3 years and 6 months inside, then released !

Do you do this court translation on request from a client, or are you appointed by the courts and then cannot choose which cases etc ? Wondering how much this might cost...PM if shy.

robblok Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Bail, is indeed a thing that is hard to discuss, in cases of repeat offenders who are a danger to others should not be granted bail. Also bail should not be granted when the suspect can interfere with the investigation. Here often its quite random, but i hope that this out on bail in this case does not mean out forever. Just keeping pressure there is a good thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the court/police that calls me, I'll do it if and when I'm available but lately pick up the phone less because I just don't agree with the "justice" I see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish I had a decent translator when I needed one several years ago...I would have won. Would be interesting, but perhaps depressing getting involved in all the nitty gritty stuff of what goes on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likewise Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 In the beginning I found it all very interesting but now I'm fed up with it and do it mostly for immigration instead of police. I just can't get my head around how violent offenders are released on bail over and over again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
