Myanmar murder suspects escorted to Samui court for extended detention

Featured Replies

Tourism will take a hit. First Phuket murders two years back of Aussies. Then Brits last year. Now this and another Ozzie on samui.

The tourism sector in Thailand south deserves to fail. Too high prices. Watch this space

I might be an expert on blunt Trauma injuries

hows that ?....been hit on the head a few times have you ?whistling.gif

ABOUT TIME

Stop the police framing these Burmese guys.

Find evidence of the headman's sons who did it

Just get their DNA and the case will be solved

What if the police did not frame the Myanmar migrant workers ?

What if the headmans son is not a killer ?

What if the DNA is correct ?

Do not judge anyone until the facts and evidence have been proven to be correct .

The Apologist

there's one on every thread

These two suspects should be encouraged, by the lawyers sent to represent them, to retract their so called confessions and let the incompetent Thai police prove their case. They are innocent until proven guilty.

Questioned throughout the night..... Should more likely read learnt their script throughout the night.

There's a jail on PN ?

Certainly not.

Or is that their secret torture chamber they are given the privilege of staying in ?

Lots of scalding hot water on call no doubt.

Get someone to talk to Sean Mckanna. he seems to have run into hiding very quickly. Where is he? Why hasn't he been open (as he was on FB) since he was taken back home? You don't stay in hiding for three weeks.

Those kids look like they are in never never land. Sort of strutted in front, like a best in breed cow show.

That little worm is going to lay lower than low, until this blowsover. Right along with his thai mate.

50,000 baht to anyone who can show proof of where that little worm is. Will pay it myself

So by now we've all seen ruthiebs pictures of Sean at the pub crawl

On the very day that the bodies were found?

Funny to have a relationship with someone that you call brother and then head out to a pub crawl no?

Taken to Samui for 12 more days of kicking their ass around the station, and telling them what to say next, before being sentenced officially.wink.png

now the police are saying it was david's phone ,as I said in another post if it was David's phone then whose phone was pictured on the crime scene next to david's shorts ?

was not this phone pictured in the bar in front of Hanna, is this not the same phone given to police in the police by her friend in the police station pictured to prove this

another red herring by the keystone cops

"...admitted to the murder of David miller and raping and killing of Ms Hannah Witheridge".

Seems the accused have no rights at all - questioned for over 24 hours without a break and no legal representation. You're digging a great big legal hole for yourselves RTP.

Looks like it

'EXTENDED DETENTION'?

Is this why a carpenter/joiner friend of mine has been asked to build a RACK?

I have heard screams coming from a police Detention Room in Pattaya several times. I think these lads are in for a hard time

Confessions made under duress are rarely reliable

sound like the R TP are giving it all they can before the lawyers arrive

and i wonder if the two defendants will speak freely to the lawyers, what about when the lawyers leave, i shudder to think what will happen to them if they put up a defence

Death in custody is more than likely.

The two suspects were seen to be very exhausted as they have been questioned throughout the night.

And presumably without a lawyer again....bah.gif

Or translator?

These Burmese lads may be in hot water, but I seriously doubt the Thai cops would be foolish enough to use boiling water knowing the scarring it would leave. But then................

The guy who killed Dale Henry was out on police bail the best part of 2 years, he was a gun for hire who the police used Estimated 100 kills. There again he was Thai.

This seems like the best way out for the RTP now that the world outcry and action is mobilising.

More manipulation and face saving to come. If if means two "suicides" on their hands would it be surprising that they resorted to that ? I mean David and Hannah's murders were likely due to a lose of face of the Thai people.

An inflammatory post was removed as well.

Questioning style always helps clear things up: "Are you sorry you murdered them: yes or no?", "Did you plan to murder them before you raped her? yes or no". Questions like that.....

Questioned throughout the night..... Should more likely read learnt their script throughout the night.

Totally agree. Obviously forcing the Thai-policescript on them to avoid further embarrassments.

What gets to me is does the Thai police think that the rest of the world is as stupid as themselves?

"the 48 hours allowed by law to detain them has expired while they still needed more time for questioning."

So they were unlawfully and illegally detained?

The presiding judge should have something to say about that ... but TIT facepalm.gif

Andy Hall's team of legal advisers are on the island to assist the 3 Myanmar accused. Let's hope this gets more international attention. The pm of Thailand's face needs saving. If they turn this case back to the family mafia on KO tao this will be a triumph for Thai Justice System

Ok, time for us to put out money where our mouths (fingers) are. Please join me in donating to Andy Hall to help ensure the accused get the defense to which they are entitled.

All who are interested in justice no matter what your views on the BIB should contribute to this. It's the least we can do.

the travel to Ban Nathon pier on Samui took three hours.

I am very impressed the suspects didn't fall out the speed boat and "drown" on the way...

where did they go ? 3 hours ? Not so far from thongsala to nathon

they might have been there and raped her afterwards but they did not kill her i think someone should look closer to home maybe the owner of a bar and resort as he know to the police for raping other women read on pantip or other thai site for information

Why the need for extended detention, if the proof is there? xsick.gif.pagespeed.ic.tVTSNn-2vr.png

Quite simply, because it's not, and the whole world of Thai policing now plays a major role, watched by the world's media.

It is simply the legal process. There is only a finite time police can hold a person without the court's approval.

garbage again - you know nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How sad, absolutely no evidence it was a Thai let along a Thai from a wealthy family but it doesn't stop people from refusing to believe the overwhelming evidence against this pair including their friend being a witness against them, people seeing them near the scene at the time, video footage, confessions, one of the victims phones found at their place and or course their DNA which was a match to the semen collected at the scene and which was share with Singapore.

Unless these two not only die but have their bodies disappear as well as their family, their DNA will be around to be tested again with that on file in Singapore by whomever will want to test it.

ohhhh so sensitive!!!!!!!!! So keen for Thai Police to be exhonerated!!! So sad!!!! so in denial!!!!!!!!!!!! Sucha garbage poster with no credibility - curl up and die on a beach somewhere!!!

JTJ - you are a shame on Thailand with your false talk about DNA that you havent even seen your ignorant rants about phones and your false cries of witnesses show us irrevocable proof that these two were the sole perpetrators or are guilty or shut your stupid mouth. You have no evidebce except the Police fit up which most Thai people know about!!!! You are a disgrace to Thailand!!
