Police say several violent incidents linked to UDD

BANGKOK: -- Several of the violent incidents committed against protesters of the People’s Democratic Reform Committee during the six-month since last November were linked to members of the United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship, said Pol Gen Aek Angsananont, deputy national police chief, today (Sunday).

Evidences obtained by the police implicated UDD members of involvement in several violent incidents such as the grenade throwing at Victory Monument, the grenade and gun attack at PDRC protest site in Trat province and the fatal shooting of PDRC core leader at Wat Sri-iam in Bang Na, he added.

The deputy police chief said the police knew several perpetrators were UDD members and they were trying to find out who were the masterminds who ordered the violent attacks against the PDRC protesters.

He disclosed that investigation of 17 violent cases was making progress although arrests were yet to be made.

Regarding the case about the gun attack on the resident of Mr Pramon Sutheewong, head of the Aanti-Corruption Organisation, Pol Gen Aek said police knew who the perpetrators were and were in the process of going after them.

If they know they're UDD scumbags, why not arrest them now?

[brfsa2]

"were in the process of going after them."

What a JOKE

[Pib]

If they know they're UDD scumbags, why not arrest them now?

Hopefully going after who ordered & funded the hits versus just arresting the hitmen now.

[JesseFrank]

Strange that they couldn't lay the link in the 6 months the PDRC protest lasted, but can at once 3 weeks after someone told them to solve the case.

They have evidence, so likely they know who is involved in some of the cases, all they need is to round up a few of them and make them squeal, which they certainly will do, and I hope it ends in an almighty domino topple and leads right to the door of the UDD leaders.

We all know that they have been implicit in all these murders, and we also know on who's word.

Let's all hope that as I suspect, the names Jatuporn. Thida, Nattawut, Surapong and Chalerm come out in the wash... The biggest bonus names will be Thaksin and Yingluck.

The UDD is deffo going to become an outlawed organization, and I doubt they will be able to just reinvent themselves under a new name.

Would also be nice if certain police are named as being involved in both the actions taking place and the cover ups and who ordered the investigations to be stifled.

The 'red shirts' are coming to their end.

SCUM!!!!!

Now there is a surprise.

In the 6 months while the attacks were being made the police discovered nothing.

Now after a month under new management they have managed to come to the conclusion that the UDD were involved in several incidents.

We await with interest the resulting arrests and the fingering of the ones who organized (paid) those who carried out the killings.

[waza]

It was alway obvious that the UDD rent a thugs perpetrated these crimes, hopefully they will trace it back to the PTP masterminds.

You tell 'em, Thumper!!

[sweatalot]

What a Surprise !

[Cuchulainn]

Finally, the police getting off their <deleted>, (sorry, getting kicked off their <deleted>) and turning against their puppet-masters!!

HOORAY!!

[SamMunich]

The hot weather has calmed down, so let's do the same and calm down as well.

It is good, that finally somebody is going after those, that thought they can do whatever they want without being held responsible. Now that the protection is gone, they can be caught. What most have assumed, now it turns out to be the most likly outcome, that most harrasment and killing came from the red shirt camp.

Give police a little more time to go after the real big bosses, but don't give them too much time, until everybody has fled the scene.

And after they got the heavy duty culprits, let's remember, that most red shirts (as many on the other side) were only joining due to peer pressure. So we better start the grand discourse among all people in Thailand, how the future should look like.

Or as Khun Karl the Marx would have said: Shirts of all colors: unite! You got nothing to loose but your buttons!

Now some undesirable people have been remove from offices, police can work without interference......

[Morch]

If they know they're UDD scumbags, why not arrest them now?

It's called the Tharit Gambit - you give the suspects a warning, then discover some of them are gone and evidence is

missing.

Hope they do get their hands on all involved - perpetrators and "masterminds" alike.

Well we now know who the infamous "THIRD HAND" that Chalerm liked to claim would cause conflict are!

[noitom]

They have links. The army has links. No one can have a link, but the Thai army can have many links.

[Basil B]

Presume the top organisers and financiers behind these attacks have already left the country, or were already out of the country.

[Robby nz]

Well we now know who the infamous "THIRD HAND" that Chalerm liked to claim would cause conflict are!

He did get quite good at predicting what would happen.

As we haven't seen or heard from him for a while he could just be explaining to the relevant authorities how he was able to make his predictions, as in helping with the inquiries.

If that is the case it could explain why he needs to be in protective custody for there could be those who would resent any new predictions he may make.

[seajae]

while most of us knew this to be the case there were certain members that kept insisting that the reds were not guilty and continually defended them, one has to wonder if any of them will now have the balls to admit they were wrong, somehow I doubt it. Strange that those backing the protesters could admit that some pcad guards were getting off base yet the reds never would admit guilt. This just goes to show that those supporting the protests to reign in the corruption and the ptp/reds were well and truly in the right and had Thailands best welfare at heart while the others just had their greed and highly biased party views first and foremost

We may find out who those fake police dressed in black were on the labour ministry rooftop shooting at protesters and police were....

"Today the National Police Bureau, for the first time, admitted to the presence of police officers shooting down from the rooftop of the Labor Ministry building at Din Daeng on 26 Dec. 2013.....Police said the so-called “men in black” seen on a building rooftop were actually policemen and they did not fire live ammunition at anti-government protesters who tried to break into the Thai-Japanese stadium last month."

[bigbamboo]

Goodbye Keystone Kops....... hello Elliot Ness.

[sscsamui]

Hopefully Khun Prayuth will make sure Anyone from the UDD and the PTP will Never be able to be in Politics ever again..... For the sake of Thailand...

The question has to be asked, just how much did he know and did he have a hand in orchestrating the Third hand?

Ah. Jonathan. Remember him? Idiot

[dru2]

Well, knock me down with a feather!

As for Jonathan Head - he should have known, and he should know now, that it is the job of a good foreign correspondent to report events accurately as they happen, and not as he / she would wish them to happen.

Anyone who throws a grenade into a crowd or fires a weapon into a crowd should get the death penalty. That might be a deterrent.
