Phuket police street shooter walks free
Phuket Gazette -

PHUKET: All charges against a Phuket police officer arrested for shooting dead a civilian in Phuket Town have been dropped.

Cpl Rachaporn Semaksorn and his brother, Dechaporn, were arrested after witnesses identified Cpl Rachaporn as the man who pulled out a gun and shot 21-year-old Ekkasit Sangangam at point-blank range.

The incident occurred on Phun Pol Soi 11, in the heart of Phuket Town’s red light district, at about 2:30am on May 5 last year .

Cpl Rachaporn was subsequently discharged from the Royal Thai Police while he was facing a murder charge and Mr Dechaporn was charged with conspiracy to murder.

However, Phuket Provincial Chief Public Prosecutor Chiengsean Panhya has dropped all charges against the pair.

He declined to tell the Phuket Gazette why.

“We have decided to drop the case. We have formally reported this to Phuket Governor Maitri Inthusut for his acknowledgment, but he has yet to sign his approval and return it to us,” Chief Prosecutor Chiengsean told the Gazette.

During the seven months of investigation, Phuket City Police reported difficulty in obtaining witness statements against the policeman and his brother.

“We understand that this is a difficult investigation due to the fact that the police do not have enough information about the witnesses, not even names,” Chief Prosecutor Chiengsean told the Gazette last year.

Déjà vu all over again.

I don't know why the cops don't just go around machine gunning people in shopping malls, take a dump on a restaurant table and take all the gold from gold shops as there is nobody around to do anything about it.

Scary stuff...

Thats why I want nothing to do with Thai police

They are above the law...

Yes I fully agree with you, but its surprising how many farangs will tell you their in-laws are high ranking policemen. I could think of nothing more shame full in any country. I suspect these loser farangs are insecure and were bullied as kids in school

Please don't give them any ideas. They cause enough trouble with their impotence as it is. neus.gifrolleyes.gif

"I guess these "witnesses" know better than to step forward and ID a cop for a shooting just for the sake of 'justice'" and get shot themselves, then repeat the earlier steps. I am thankful I live in a just, above board town, where cops know the rules (Jomtien/Pattaya).

Simply Amazing Thailand. I'm outta here! no ifs ands or buts. This is a DISGRACE and should be reported around the world. I would NEVER recommend this place for any visitors.

Buddhist? oh pleeeeeeeease

Don't confuse Thailand with Phuket. They are two different countries. :) :)
