webfact Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Theft the motive in Akeyuth murder: policeThe NationBANGKOK: -- Police investigators insisted yesterday that theft was the motive for the murder of businessman and government opponent Akeyuth Anchanbutr.Pol Maj-General Parinya Chansuriya, deputy Metropolitan Police commissioner, said investigators have ruled out other motives.Investigators were now in the process of concluding the case, after compiling strong evidence, Parinya said, adding that the case would be passed on to public prosecutors, who would charge the four suspects in court. The suspects include Akeyuth's chauffeur, Santiparb Pengduang.Investigators could answer all of the 13 points of suspicion raised by Akeyuth's relatives and lawyer, Suwat Apaipak, Parinya said.Also yesterday, the House committee on police affairs held a meeting on the Akeyuth case. Deputy Police commissioner-general Pol General Parnsiri Prapawat, Metropolitan Police chief Pol Lt-General Khamronwit Thupkrajang, Forensic Medicine Institute Commander Pol Maj-General Pornchai Suthirakhun and Suwat were summoned to testify.Suwat told the House panel that several suspicious points relating to the chauffeur had led him to believe that Akeyuth was assassinated at someone's order. Suwat added that Akeyuth had told him he had conflicts with Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra and former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra.Suwat said he had learned that a group of men dressed like military and police officers were seen at the mouth of the soi in which Akeyuth had dinner before he was abducted.But Wang Thonglang Police Station chief Pol Colonel Sanhakij Bamrungsuksawat told the House panel that police had checked security-camera footage and found no trace of such a group of men.-- The Nation 2013-06-21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post NongKhaiKid Posted June 21, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted June 21, 2013 The motive was announced as soon as the deceased was reported missing, even before his body was found and Chalerm got into the act at a suspiciously early stage. I am sure the so called investigators started with the desired end product and worked backwards to justify it rather than starting with the minimum of evidence and working forward to establish the facts. Having said that I am of course referring to investigations carried out properly not Thai style. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemonjelly Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) Would a group of men, one of them the chauffeur, who if my memory serves me correctly personally collected the cheque for 5 million from the secretary, thus immediately making him a prime suspect, murder such a high profile person for what is once divided amongst the perpetrators, would be quite a small amount taking into account the gravity of the crime unless they had assurances of protection or/and higher rewards from influential figures?

Siripon Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 You could drive a 10 wheel truck through the holes in the police's logic. As mentioned why 'throw away' the very valuable amulets, gold and watch? But they haven't been found yet, could it be someone else has them? Who was Santiparp talking to on the phone outside the restaurant before Aekayut was kidnapped? Why on earth would Santiparp go to meet Aekayut's secretary to pick up the cheque, making him a prime suspect? Even he can't be that stupid. If they had the gold etc, there was no need to go for the cash- unless they wanted to make it look like a robbery. And Santiparp alone was responsible for killing Ekayut? With what?

bigbamboo Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 These guys are good, wrapping up a murder so fast! Perhaps they should take a look at the Red Bull heir manslaughter case and speed that up a bit too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unkomoncents Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Aw Thailand. Too bad you can't believe a word they say. EVER. Thais get so offended when it's suggested that they are liars too. They are not liars. They are pathologically incapable of understanding the value of information such that the proper procedure is to smile and wai whenever anyone says anything in the Kingdom and then just go back to business as usual. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saltandpepper Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Kudos to BIB! (tongue in cheek, here) A very shady murder solved in no time with culprits arrested and charged already..... Errrr, what about the Red Bull case? Any reason why it is not progressing at such an awesome pace? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baerboxer Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Come on now. You all grumble when the keystone's can't solve anything. Now, a murder solved in record time - and you still complain. Of course, it helped that somebody explained it all before they started to investigate. The truth will out - according to Chaucer, who had never visitied Thailand !!

tonneke breda Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 It's clear by everyone who followed this story that there is more going on then a burglary, and looking to other police-cases in the country of smile, cases have never be rounded up so fast. It surprises me that Aekayut is not being accused by Chalerm of being the mastermind in the luxury car case, just to blame someone. And police pressing for the removal from the Russian YouTube clip from Phuket, we would like to press the police to release the CCTV footage from the kidnapping from Aekayut, but these footage will probably disappear by accident. #tonneke breda 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timewilltell Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 It's becoming a daily routine recently. I wonder why no one believes Chalerm or the police story. I guess that tells you something. Politics never was a very pleasant subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
