Jean Pierre Jacquot Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Not surprising isn't it? The police force in Thailand is evil, doing anything they want without ever being punished for it! Army show us your power and clean up those criminals once for all! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wandasloan Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 We suspected foul play and knew it was something like this. Thanks to the mouth of the drunkard Chalerm. He'll get his. Good to see the army out there trying to clear things up and get the system under better control before October. Boy oh boy do they have their work cut out for them. I missed the part where the army is involved in this case. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lvr181 Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 A perfect of, 'who watched the watchers'? When the police are in charge of the investigation and they are the guilty, there is not much chance for justice in the Land of Smiles. One must, as do most Thais I know, trust Karma. Has Karma ever "punished" the guilty before they have committed another crime? Just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Docno Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 This case needs to be sorted out and the real perpetrators caught, tried fairly, and punished. That said, this Akeyuth is a real anal sphincter of the highest order and shouldn't be made into some sort of martyr in the unending quest to destroy the Shin clan. He made his wealth from a pyramid scheme that collapsed (as they do) and so would have hurt many people (those at the base of the pyramid). He evaded justice for 20 years, and after the statute of limitations had passed, returned to Thailand to engage in a hyper-ironic campaign against Thaksin and kin (black pots and kettles all 'round). He even went so far as to suggest northern Thai women are fit to be nothing but prostitutes. A lovely character indeed... This is true. But murder is murder, whoever you murder. And when (it is alleged) the police are involved then that makes the concept of law and order null and void. This includes Thaksin who should have been indicted for the atrocities he perpertrated: 2500+ so called drug dealers murdered in a spree of extra-judicial killings (except some of these people were not dealers and some may have been personal or political opponents). I think Akeyuth is no different from many people here who make money on the backs of hardworking folk in this lawless land. Yep - that's exactly why I started with "This case needs to be sorted out and the real perpetrators caught, tried fairly, and punished." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emster23 Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 "Akeyuth became rich running a pyramid scheme two decades ago" (which means many became poor...). lots of reasons to whack him, and lots have been killed for far less. Police were doing it as public service, put a smile on victims' faces, part of their happiness campaign. I'd like to see "Thai billionaire who killed cops caught" Did son of Red Bull ever go to the cop shop, or just straight down to Singapore? I (foolishly) hoped the coup rulers might make some slight attempt at being fair and balanced, but most efforts have gone to cracking down on Reds and nothing regarding Demos. Is Suthep in custody yet? Has Hades frozen over? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangon04 Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 "The lawyer said he knew who the four officers were, but since he did not have the hard disk he could be hit with defamation lawsuits if he named them." I was under the impression that defamation suits in Thailand bear no relation to truth of the allegation. What is holding back the "defamed" police is probably that they want to limit the number of people who know exactly who they are.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unanimosity Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 (edited) The hard disk is supposed to be missing and we can be sure it will stay that way unless somebody has kept it for some sort of 3rd party insurance and ever feels it necessary to produce it. Even the most remedial CCTV security systems export or sync with off-site data storage. Otherwise, what's the point in having it? Then again, this may have been the off-site storage disk.

Still trying to defend Thaksin by deflection, you really are an outstanding sheeple of the highest order ! Yes Akeyuth was a nasty piece of work, but the facts in his disappearance speak for themselves. Don't try and defend the murderers, there is no defence for it ! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, arrest the whole staff from the off-site location and beat a confession out of them to find out who gave the order to remove the hard drive. Of course, the thief may be a marked man already as higher ups may want to erase all connections to themselves. If he was smart, as NKK said, he made copies and made it known he has spread them around to be released upon his 'sudden' death. Chuwit and Chalerm are masters of such tactics. My concern is for the lawyer who claims to know the killers and is talking to the press. They are brazen enough to disappear him at any time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMarlow Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 A missing hard drive with CCTV? People keeping silent? Driving for 10 hours in the wrong lane? What happened to harder crime scene evidence - it is impossible for any-one to walk into a room and leave some evidence of their own DNA behind and that is fact. Perhaps its time to re-visit the DNA trail, "...it is impossible for any-one to walk into a room and leave some evidence of their own DNA behind and that is fact." Why should the DNA trail be revisited? If what you say is fact (which clearly it isn't) there would be no DNA there. It is possible that someone being in a room could leave DNA evidence of their being there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

submaniac Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 "Akeyuth became rich running a pyramid scheme two decades ago, and stayed in self-imposed exile until the statute of limitations in the case against him ran out." Sorry. Don't feel bad. Actually, the word "karma" comes to mind as does the old phrase "what goes around comes around". To be a BILLIONAIRE, imagine the countless people who lost their life's savings to one person's greed (I'm thinking of the interviews I have seen of the victims of Bernie Madhoff's schemes.) Madhoff got a life sentence for his schemes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makkam Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Is anyone really bothered about the circumstances surrounding the death of someone who made a fortune from 'Pyramid Selling'?

bkkrooftop Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 This article did not make clear whether the hard disk was ever witnessed by anyone and/or used as evidence in the first trial. Or if its just the figment of the defense attorney's imagination-- the disappearance of a hard disc no one has ever seen. As for no vehicle being able to drive in the wrong lane for so long without a police escort, perhaps someone familiar with the case could shed light on this because it seems like drivers can pretty much do whatever they like on the roadways without the need for a police escort. The victim ran a successful pyramid scheme and then left the country until the Statute of Limitations ran out? Why would the crooked Thaksin be upset by that? Surely not on moral grounds ;-) Some of his pals must have been part of those duped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EyesWideOpen Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Didnt Chalerm solve this case? Sent from my GT-I9500 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Mr Chalerm seems to be very quiet now, is he even in Thailand anymore ? Did he get arrested, what happened ? I have wondered that myself. He is the poster boy for everything that was wrong with the PTP government. I suspect he is in custody while they build a case against him.....

thumper101 Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 It wouldn't be at all surprising to find Chalerm at the top of all this, of course on the say-so of the mega corrupt Yingluck regime. She has well lived up to her brother's expectations as a despotic and dangerous leach. I am waiting for the day the Junta grow the balls to implicate and name these PTP and Thaksinite animals such as the MP who's car was found to contain war weapons headed for Bangkok..... come on Prayuth... name names.

The lawyer quoted that these police officers were threatening legal action , their goose would be cooked, doing that, then everyone will know who they are. Why should their goose be cooked? If there is no evidence against them they have every right to challenge the allegations of this lawyer. The facts of this case appear to be buried under pile on pile of slime and confusion. Even the motive for murdering the Billionaire are speculative. Given that the billionaire made his fortune from conning gullible people (ie Pyramid schemes) out of their hard earned savings would have made him a lot of enemies.

Maybe he fears he'll end up like Akeyuth. Not surprising given the ruthless way the Thaksin regime dealt with those who spoke up. Well, there is a different regime in power now, so this man should get the protedtion he needs to come clean and name names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
