Still trying to curry favor with this crook. Beggars belief! Most likely paid them to weep. Just like he paid them to vote for him.

jocko Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 It's great that the clean up is making good progress no doubt about but why do i have the feeling not much will happen to him apart from maybe he will retire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briggsy Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 The deal would have already been pretty much sealed before the surrender. Who knows, that hour in the cells might have been part of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deli Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Very hard to believe that they will put him behind steel bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LivinginKata Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Very hard to believe that they will put him behind steel bars. Agreed. None of these high profile people will spend much time (if any) behind bars. The Thai judicial system just does not work that way. Money talks and corrupt guys walk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanuk711 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 (edited) It's great that the clean up is making good progress no doubt about but why do i have the feeling not much will happen to him apart from maybe he will retire. Because your a victim of your own propaganda--- 10 million baht houses are being burnt, plantations are being chopped down, beach front properties worth millions are being cleared, Taxi mafia leaders are in jail or being hunted, but to some people with their head placed firmly up an orifice --nothing much is happening----everyone's getting away with it.............

impulse Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 And what is this deal with surrendering to anyone but the Phuket police. Very strange indeed. My guess is that he knows where the skeletons are buried, and who buried them. Information that could be hazardous if he turned himself in to the custody of the perpetrators... But that's just wild speculation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones obove him in the Phuket foodchain sure don't want to get public. What was Prabs job in Bangkok? Which very well connected Phuket familiy he meet this weekend also in Bangkok? Normally the deal is done already and safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Tattadadaa, tattadaa, tattadatattattaaa! Finally the news we have all been waiting for! Keesin family trio denied bail over Phuket mafia charges“We have denied the suspects bail for the time being, as we need more time to gather the relevant documents and put them in order. Once we have completed our investigation, we will consider allowing them out on police bail,” Region 8 Police Deputy Commander Paween Pongsirin said. All the suspects are being held at Phuket City Police Station. http://www.phuketgazette.net/phuket-news/Keesin-family-trio-denied-bail-Phuket-mafia/33763 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MK1 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 The God father of Patong has finally met his match with believable the highest authority in the land. Hopefully this milestone restores the vital business confidence needed for Patong to move forward without these stand over merchants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LivinginKata Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Will he squeal? Depends who his cell-mate is. He is currently in police detention which is usually a single communal cell at the police station. No beds, just mats on the floor, one toilet. Zero ammenities. I really cannot believe he and his entourage are in such a cell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireMedic Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I do not believe for one second they are sleeping in gen pop in Phuket Town....unless there is photos, there is no proof. They may very well be detained, and not free to leave, but not in genpop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
