Police assure of fairness and equal treatment of Laotian girl's death case

8-1-2014-3-38-38-PM-wpcf_728x413.jpg

BANGKOK: -- A senior Thai police said he will invite representatives of the Laotian Embassy in Bangkok to hear the latest finding of the probe into the death of an 18-year-old Laotian girl and will cooperate with the embassy to look into all possibilities they recommend so as to bring justices to the victim.

“We treat all cases equally and with fairness and justices with no discrimination of who the victim is, a Laotian and a Thai. We are ready to listen to all recommendation should the embassy raises,” declared Pol Gen Charumporn Suramanee, advisor to the Royal Thai Police commissioner

Pol Gen Charumporn gave the assurance to the Laotian Embassy and the Laotian media during the reinspection of the scene at the 8-storey apartment where “Nong Paeng” fell to her death yesterday.

Photographs of finger prints, foot prints taken on the first day of the incident were also brought to compare at the scene yesterday. More forensic detection was conducted to collect evidence.

Earlier, forensic police detected finger prints on the round iron bar at the corridor of the room where she fell to the ground. The finger prints showed she held the bar from the outside.

There was also finger print on the wall, and footprints on the cement beam.

These traces showed she climbed out of the corridor and held the iron bar from outside.

From the forensic findings, the senior police officer said the police could not yet establish whether she fell down accidentally or being pushed down.

But he said he could confirm that the victim fell vertically down as her body fell to the ground just within the two metres wide channel in between two buildings.

There was no external horizontal force acted on the body in the fall, reasoning that if there was horizontal force, her body must fall on the roof of the building instead of falling in between the walls.

It was a vertical fall, he said but this could not establish if it was an accidental fall or a murder as more evidence are needed to be looked into.

He welcomed recommendations from the embassy and added the case is not yet concluded.

Huey Kwang police also said they did not ignore the case but were looking for more clues.

"It was a vertical fall, he said but this could not establish if it was an accidental fall or a murder"... "He welcomed recommendations from the embassy"...

 

"It was a vertical fall"... Police seem to be trying but they simply are not capable.

 

Select a few hundred according to selection criteria used in countries with a decent police force. Then send them in groups to those countries for training. When back spread them over the Kingdom and finally get things moving. Except criminals EVERYBODY in Thailand will be happy with a better functioning police force. It really doesn't need to cost very much. 

Actually it seems to me that in this case they are doing a reasonable effort to ascertain facts for what as possible.

The article says the handrail was grabbed from outside but it doesn't say if with one or two hands and whether facepalm on top or on bottom, that can be an important detail. 

 

One can be trained In Thailand or anywhere else but finding if one person has been pushed may not even be possible.

Poor kid....Hopefully there will be a conclusion...at least for her parents sake.......but the Thai BiB in reality probably don't care too much.....a result of some sort, will suffice.

If somebody's holding on for dear life, it is reasonable to assume if you want them gone, from an 8th floor, you'd be pushing vertically downwards, and not horizontally. Or did I miss something clearly more evident?

All cases are treated equally? I smell the manure produced by a bull.
'justices'.
Nuff said

Wow what a CSI team they have here! "It was a vertical fall" Next up "Police believe due to effect of gravity. They will continue investigating."

Yes, you do. Unfortunately, you are not Chalerm, so no one will believe you!

or even a police officer killed by a coked-out hi-so Ferrari driver. Justice will be served as soon as the envelope is served.

very,very sad  RIP   

“We treat all cases equally and with fairness and justices with no discrimination......." Did I read wrongly?

Interesting they said accidental or murder but not suicide.

 

Climb over the railing, Hang on to it until you have a chance to step off of the ledge. Then let go. A perfect Vertical Fall.

 

Hum??? Did I miss something here?

Investigation finished, Thai Police expects to arrest Mr. Gravity very soon...

gravity, now that is a serious killer

Either way, it's a grave situation.

Very Very sad what a waste of a young life hope they sort it and find out what really happened but sadly I doubt if the Thai police really give a shit.

R.I.P YOUNG LADY and condolences to your family.

I'd have thought that a push with just enough (forward or downward) force to make her release her grip would not have that much effect on the resultant impact point.

if you are going to kill your self why hang off the rail then let go, you would just jump and then would be further away from the wall, if you were pushed you would grab hold of something hence the rail, and if not allowed back up would eventually drop, not far from the wall, that's what Sherlock holmes would have said

I am waiting for announcement "Police determine fall not what killed her, it was the landing."

 

"It was a vertical fall, he said but this could not establish if it was an accidental fall or a murder"... "He welcomed recommendations from the embassy"...

That's not how a lot of suicides happen. People don't 'just jump'... they ponder and wait and hesitate. If you don't believe me, look up a documentary called 'The Bridge' on Youtube. Contains a lot of footage of people committing suicide from the Golden Gate Bridge (along with interviews with family members and friends). Many of them hesitate for a long time, then just release their grip on the railing or slide off from a sitting position rather than jumping. The one young man they focus on paces back and forth for hours before sitting, then standing on the railing, and just leaning back...
