Redshirt gunmen put in prison

BANGKOK: -- Four redshirt armed men arrested and suspected to be involved in the second grenade attack on National Anti Corruption Commission (NACC) office building Thursday night were put in Nonthaburi prison after they were escorted to the provincial court to face several charges.

The four were rounded up at and near the site where a small group of government supporters led by the redshirt Radio Community for Democracy was holding out in front of the NACC office to intercept its work.

The four suspects are Chuchart Chusiri, 33, Rattanapong Intarang-see, 35, Samai Boonnan, 60, and Kompakorn Kohkaew, 46.

Police accused Churchart of carrying a shotgun and 38 rounds of cartridges into public place without proper reason, while Rattansapong of illegal possessing and carrying an AK 47 assault rifle,120 cartridges and two RFD5 hand grenades into public places.

Samaiwas accused of owing and carrying a homemade pistol and 11 9 mm cartridges into public place.

Kompakorn was a suspected wanted by the Ratchaburi court on car theft in November 2010.

After undergoing the court process, three were put in prison while only Kompakorn would be sent back to prison in Ratchaburi province.

This is great news, i wish all suspects that carry illegal firearms and commit crimes were apprehended and incarcerated as quickly.

Unlike in the news recently of the celebrity who was released on bail after being found guilty of murder in one of the most open and shut cases ever, or politicians, army, other hi so persons who are never found guilty or apprehended for anything. (TS aside that is)

[timber]

Sounds great, have more respect for the police. Check in two months.

They done interviewing these guys? Who the bosses are, where the weapons came from?

Don't believe a word of this - The red shirts are peaceful.

This is fascist coup monger propaganda by the elites; these are PDRC fake reds, paid by Suthep to justify his ongoing judical coup.

Sorry - had to get that in there quick as we all know its coming from certain posters.

Exactly. Someone's paying them to do this. It would take a brave policeman to inquire much further, and to announce the findings. Shame the police aren't paid enough to take such risks.

You post in jest, however you may very well find that they are red, not working for PDRC but along side and financed by the same people as Suthep and is mob.

All in the name of control - of Thailand by ridding the country of a democratically legally elected government. One could well claim they need removing and rightfully so, but surely there has to be a better way.

This mob are all part of the Ko Tee offshoot of the reds.

Ko Tee gets no respect from the UDD and the northern reds at all. He is considered a loose cannon and totally goes over the top. Even though we know all red shirts are way over the top. This guy is a liability to the PTP/UDD/Reds.

At all the wrong times when that movement were pulling back from their secession chatter once they gauged the reaction to it (both military and the people in general), there was Ko Tee running his mouth off about reds supporting it, and hanging up pro-secession banners with his name on.

He has threatened detailed violence and law breaking (bank robbery and looting petrol to burn BKK) at the time UDD announce non-violent and lawful means.

Although I know the UDD/Reds are largely of the same mindset, they are trying the subterfuge method which this idiot keeps blowing wide open.

The police are clearly under orders from above to stop this guy, hence forbidding his new red radio channel without license which he would never be able to get from authorities, and starting to remove his supporters from the equation. The next move will possibly to take him out altogether.

This also serves as a message to the world that the police are not biased, which is a nice propaganda bonus for them.

It also didn't help that these idiots were found acting suspiciously right next to a large cache of weapons and the army were there at the time helping the police, so the cops had no choice but to do something.

[alfalfa19]

Quite surprising. Are they already convicted? If so, that was incredibly fast. Or, are they just being imprisoned until a trial?

Redshirt gunmen put in prison

The only reason this has been reported is because it is such a surprise that they weren't released on bail.

[sweatalot]

put them in the same cell as the yellow shirt popcorn guy or did he get bail? Still more on both sides to be rounded up including that monk who ordered the beating of the guy then his execution

Still more on both sides to be rounded up

I guess there will be an overwhelming majority on one side

And I know on which

[Costas2008]

"Kompakorn was a suspected wanted by the Ratchaburi court on car theft in November 2010."

Car thieves, petty criminals, scam of the earth.

These are your red supporters, fighting for Democracy.

Some say that the secret of happiness is low expectations, my low expectation is that, at the very least, whover gets to run this country doesn't get to do so with the use of terrorism.

You're mixing two different people - The monk's name is Luang Pu Buddha Issara. The one accused in the case you refer to is Issara Somchai.

Of course, there haven't been a trial yet, but don't let that stop you from finding a probable tree and a length of rope.

Sorry, I doubt that - I did not hear any of them condemn him or at least dissociate themselves.

May be it's a strategy, playing good redshirt - bad redshirt ?

A few years in prison will be a price to pay. They were most likely cheap to hire. They should get what they intended to give. Maybe they will go soft and reveal who hired them.

I know there hasn't been a trial yet, that is why I said there is more to be rounded up. I have executed anyone just saying get them and put them before the court and don't listen to any of this rubbish like, I am to busy at the moment overthrowing the government to be arrested, I'll get back to you when I am free. If the BIB can round up the rank and file then they can get leaders as well on both sides.

They won't openly condemn him for fear of creating friction within the red shirt movement. After all, these are low educated people we are talking about here.

But the educated few (and I mean 'very few') are at the top of the crap pile.

They would have not been impressed. He represents a liability to their cause, he is too open and up front and refuses to put his brain into gear before opening his stupid mouth.

Things are going on in the background (underground) with the UDD/Red's war cry. They don't need this Charlie blowing it into the open at this stage.

he is already moaning that he doesn't get any funding, means he doesn't have the support of the big man.

They don't figure that is there job. Their job ended when they got their picture taken.

Kind of curious as to

"Police accused Churchart of carrying a shotgun and 38 rounds of cartridges into public place without proper reason, while Rattansapong of illegal possessing and carrying an AK 47 assault rifle,120 cartridges and two RFD5 hand grenades into public places.

Samaiwas accused of owing and carrying a homemade pistol and 11 9 mm cartridges into public place."

What would be proper reason for carrying that kind of weaponry into a public place. Now if they had just bought it and were on their way home with it. But that was not the case they were in a public place where grenades were being thrown. Were they there to protect the one's throwing the grenades?

Well it only took 10 posts for the PTP supporters to show up. Kind of tryijjng to sneak in the door with so much over whelming evidence against the red shirts.

Quite surprising. Are they already convicted? If so, that was incredibly fast. Or, are they just being imprisoned until a trial?

Does it make a difference they are guilty and off the street. That is what you should be concerned with. Not some back door ill fated attempt to justify them.

Maybe you are new to Thailand so I will tell you a little secret. Often in court it is not the evidence that influences the verdict of guilty or innocence it is money or who your friends are.

This of course in no way means you are innocent if they say you are.

For instance was Hitler ever convicted in a court of law for crimes against humanity. No but he was still guilty.

UDD Principle number 3. To promote non-violence as our modus operandi for all activities.

​This must be an embarrassment for the UDD leadership. They like to dodge and weave through proclamations that they are violent. After the Ko Tee incident with succession and his threats to burn, loot and start a war were quickly addressed by the UDD in the form of an official statement. An excerpt of which stated "The use of weapons and other violent would also not be tolerated by the UDD nor the Thai people." Then a few weeks later the army (with police help) discover a cache of weapons more at home in a Rambo movie than at a peaceful red shirt rally where principle number 3 is held in high regard.

Someones head will no doubt roll for allowing the army to work alongside the police and allowing them to find these weapons. At the least someone is responsible for not pre warning the red shirts so they could relocate these weapons. One can rest assured this will never happen again and the terrorists will not be held in such a compromising position.

Red shirt radio is the mouth piece of the brutal terrorist movement and this discovery of an arsenal sitting in there laps is an indication of the double standards, the hatred and the hypocrisy they preach on the airwaves. The silence of the UDD leadership in denouncing this and reinforcing principle number 3 highlights their acceptance of all that is wrong with Thai society as well, but then again, what do you expect from 2 accused terrorists such as Jatuporn and Nattawut.

It will be interesting to see who paid for the lawyers to represent these terrorists.

"Furthermore, the search in the wooded area yielded one M79 grenade launcher with 6 rounds of ammunition, one handgun, three grenades, and 36 rounds of M-16 rifle."

The weapons cache as reported by police (photos in Khaosod) contained a shiny new M79 grenade launcher plus 6 grenade rounds yet these have not been linked with the accused.

Their weapons are exactly the same as all those used in attacks on protesters, which as we all know killed many. Including 4 innocent children.

I say that these should be charged along with Ko Tee for multiple terrorism offenses and mass murder.
