Anti-government group alleges that arrested protesters were mistreated

BANGKOK: -- A FORENSIC team and an explosive-ordnance disposal unit were dispatched yesterday to collect evidence after clashes between anti-government protesters and police outside Gate 1 of the Thai-Japan Stadium on Thursday.


Police said a large amount of evidence had been discovered in front of the stadium, including several bullets of unknown size, residue from a home-made bomb, metal screws, and a large number of glass marbles. In addition, two police trucks and a police van were found to have been damaged.

Inspection of the site was carried out while crowd-control police were guarding the venue. Metropolitan Police Bureau spokesman Maj Gen Adul Narongsak said police would collect the evidence and prepare arrest warrants against suspects involved in the clashes - both at the stadium and on Vibhavadi-Rangsit Road.

At a press conference yesterday, Adul said 34 police officers had been injured during clashes with protesters at the stadium, with one officer shot dead. A taxi driver was also severely injured by protesters as they closed Vibhavadi-Rangsit Road, he said.

Adul said police had also arrested and charged 14 protesters who stormed into the stadium, a government building, and also destroyed public property. Their cases had been filed at Din Daeng Police Station. They were released on bail early yesterday.

Adul said it was the protesters who were to blame for instigating violence - using weapons such as slingshots and firecrackers, as well as projectiles thrown at the police.

He said that at 9.15am on Thursday two male protesters had climbed a building and sprayed live rounds down on police officers below, killing Pol Senior Sgt-Major Narong Pitisit, a traffic policeman from Bangkok's Talat Phlu Police Station.

The protesters could therefore not be deemed to have rallied peacefully, Adul said. However, at the press conference, Adul failed to mention anything about those protesters injured or killed in the clashes.

The Students and People's Network for Thailand's Reform, a faction of the People's Democratic Reform Committee, yesterday summoned the arrested protesters for interrogation at Democracy Monument. Three of them have been admitted to hospital.

PDRC spokesman Akanat Promphan said photos of the building where the "men in black" were allegedly located matched those of the Labour Ministry near the stadium. He questioned whether they were wearing police uniforms and how they could have climbed up on to the top of the building, as no protesters were rallying in the area at that time.

At the stadium yesterday, members of the 40 Senators group inspected the site of the clashes and the candidacy registration. They were booed by police officers guarding the venue.

In a separate development, the taxi driver, Petch Chusrikwan, said yesterday from Phramongkutklao Hospital where he was recovering that he had complained to protesters he could not make a living while they were blocking the road.

He then threw a bottle of red liquid on to the road, which prompted protesters to assault him.

Suwanee - the 16-year-old daughter of the taxi driver - filed a complaint with police.

With all the Corruption and Blatant Lies; It is Impossible to Believe just about Anything from the Govrnment, Police, or even the Protest Groups without Absolute Undisputed Facts and Evidence.

Given the Totality of the Police's Claims about all the Facts of their Reported Case; Too many Holes in the Story.

TIT (This Is Thailand)

Don't know if I'm more annoyed by the fact that your avatar does injustice to a truly great role-model or that I have to read your coments on every bloody news article this morning. The real Bender would tell you off in much more colourful terms.

What happened to all the evidence in all the other murders and hit and run killings in Thailand. The video tape of the machete hacking Thai taxi driver, the Red Ferrari, and many other notable murders, manslaughters, human trafficking, and crimes?

I hope the truth comes out eventually. Thais will then be able to agree on one thing, their education system needs reforming. How so many can be so blatantly tricked by so few, in this day and age of information, is astounding.

One could argue that is the case in any 'democracy' where elected officials are lobbyists for business and multi nationals.

Wow, some mountain!!

Anyone willing to bet against all of this evidence being very damning towards the protesters whilst showing the police in the true angelic light of their well-known flawless reputation....?!!

What makes you think that the evidence you refer to would be at the Thai-Japan stadium?

You also refer to just one murder, the taxi-driver incident, what are the "many others" that you embellish your post with?

There have tragically been casualties on both sides. That fact must be stated at every press conference - from both sides. And an investigation needs to be thorough and transparent. The police and administration admittedly hold the advantage regarding the control and dissemination of information. That is a control that can easily be prone to corruption. To safe-guard that - and more importantly the public perception of it - will necessitate a strong and consistent transparency for equal and unprejudiced disclosure. And that's a place that has never been convincingly reached.

In which "democracy" is this not the case? More correctly, the elected officials are put in place to do the bidding of the moneyed interests, facilitated through their middlemen, the lobbyists.

With CSI Thailand and a mountain of evidence, just start out with what you want to prove and process the evidence

that leads in that direction. Much quicker and more efficient that way. tongue.png

The men in black feature again. These were the killers who featured in past deaths. They are reputed to be police aligned with the redshirts.

Who can believe anything the police say or any evidence they plant. Their commander is a servant of Thaksin.

"tragically" If ever a word was used to absolve some party of guilt, that word is "tragedy" and all its variants. As though this was an event whose murderous outcome was somehow outside the control of any of the parties involved. Let's look a bit closer at this tragedy. An angry and violent mob tries to destroy a legitimate lawful process. The lawful authorities defend this process from the mob as they are supposed to do. And somehow the 2 sides end up in the judgement of this poster as being equally responsible. The police were only doing their duty. Had they left the stadium open to the ravages of the mob, they would then have been criminally responsible.

He said that at 9.15am on Thursday two male protesters had climbed a building and sprayed live rounds down on police officers below, killing Pol Senior Sgt-Major Narong Pitisit, a traffic policeman from Bangkok's Talat Phlu Police Station.

Luckily these 2 protestors were so well camouflaged that they weren't seen by the drone or by the 10 police in black that were on that same roof.

For some reason this press release has the sound of Chalerm about it, hick.

Camouflaged

Yes, this YouTube clip shows Sutheps men in action.▶Sutheps men in action- YouTube

Well Mr KimoMax.

In my opinion the YouTube clip is evidence of Suthep mens criminal behavior.

You bet it is Criminal behavior. I never said anything to imply the actions were legal. Just pointing out the ineptness of the BIB.

I do not support or condone one side or another. Just experience here in Thailand shows me where things are headed.

I don't care either way about the outcome. This is Thailand......... Same Same

All Riots are Bad Behavior and illegal acts.

This topic is not about 2010. Posts have been deleted and if posters continue with baiting and inflammatory posts you will receive a formal warning and suspension.

Stay on topic, please.

I agree. Times an conditions have changed greatly since then.
