Lite Beer Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Police charges for those accusing the police of using scapegoats KOH TAO: -- The Commissioner-General of the Royal Thai Police has verified that the investigation of Koh Tao murders is completely transparent, and anybody accusing the police of arresting scapegoats could be charged with insulting officials, but people on social media sites are still questioning if the police have caught all of the killers and many questions remain unanswered.On Saturday (October, 4), the Deputy Police Commissioner-General Pol Col Somyos Pumphanmuang gave an interview about the murder case of two British tourists in Koh Tao, Surat Thani and said that the investigation team did everything in order, and that the migrant workers the police arrested are not scapegoats there is evidence like video footage from CCTV, and the DNA samples from the suspects that match with the evidence found on the scene of murder to prove this.The Commissioner-General of the Royal Thai Police also has warned people on social media who are criticizing the work of the people that sharing false information could lead to conflicts or misunderstandings because the case is now closed, and that people can disagree with the police but they also have to consider if the information they’re sharing is appropriate. People who share false information could be charged with insulting officials.However, the members of CSI LA page on Facebook, have assumed and analyzed a lot of information which wasn’t revealed by the police, and this has made people question the investigation of the case. Also, there are many people who are curious that IF the migrant workers whom the police have caught are not scapegoats, have the police caught all of the killers? Because there are is a lot of suspicion, such as no mention of the condom which was found on the scene of murder, and the missing footages from CCT, that they believe make it seems like the police are trying to cover for someone.People on social media believe that there are more than two people that killed the two British tourists than the police have caught. Questions like “who has the power to make the CCTV footage disappear?”, “whose condom was it that were found on the scene?”, “why did the Myanmar workers stay on the island after the murder?”, and “what’s the sentence for those who sheltered the killers?” are still in hot debate on the Social Media site and interest in the case shows no sign of abating. -- Samui Times 2014-10-06

Popular Post Costas2008 Posted October 6, 2014 Popular Post Posted October 6, 2014 They are just trying to cover their <deleted>. They know they are in the wrong, they know what they have done and now they are threatening people speaking against them. But the voice coming from the Thais and the foreigners is too loud and they will not be able to supress it. The truth will come out one day, either they like it or not. 28

Anthony5 Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 It probably is their way to comply with the chief's requests. I bet a lot will now not say anymore they don't have faith in the BIB Police chief urges officers to make people have faith in police again
littlebw Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 will there be enough prisons to lock up the hundreds of thousands of the RTP accusers lol
Popular Post Wilsonandson Posted October 6, 2014 Popular Post Posted October 6, 2014 Complete nonsense how can they track you down? Bully tactics. Freedom of speech, now you can't critize the police. Pm Prayuth what has happened to Thailand? 4
Popular Post inutil Posted October 6, 2014 Popular Post Posted October 6, 2014 (edited) Clearly the RTP arent using scapegoats. Theyve just got their information completely wrong. Entirely by accident no doubt. They should re-open the case as new information comes to light. For example, whose phone was smashed up given that Hannah's phone is sitting on the investigating officers table from day 1, and David's phone is sitting in a room with evidence removed from the scene on day 1 (from the TV clip posted in another thread)? Perhaps they simply overlooked something or someone gave them a false testimony. Not the RTPs fault. Someones clearly playing silly buggers. They should investigate this otherwise people would clearly draw the incorrect conclusion they were in some way turning a blind eye to this new and apparently crucial information. Also, what did happen to the missing two minutes of CCTV? Perhaps they should look at this. Clearly someone editing the information for clarity and focus may accidentally have snipped something relevant in the editing room. It should be a simple case of simply putting it back out there and checking to make sure that something absolutely vital wasnt mistakenly removed by an over zealous officer. There's just so many more things, but im not here to criticise the RTP, im here to defend them from the nutter conspiracy FANTASISTS on this board! There are serious questions, and every day it appears new information seems to come to light that casts doubts over the tale invented by these crazy Burmese attention seekers and their mad friends. No doubt theyre all looking for a pay day and have concocted some elaborate story where for no reason at all they attacked two people larger than them (one very much so), and somehow overpowered and killed them (whilst no one raised an alarm or attempted to escape). The RTP have been hoodwinked by what appears to be some kind of tricky Burmese attempt to paint Thailand in a poor light, or just perhaps some hopeless cry for attention from two lowpaid workers looking to set up their generous employers and not counting on the intelligence and dogged tenacity of the great people at the RTP.

yougivemebaby Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 This is unbelievable. With all the pressure from AROUND the world. Why not just ease everyone's tension with an independent test? Seems simple enough to me. Everyone knows the police have had a bad track record so why not just let someone do a couple simple swabs of the suspects and put most of the issues to rest? This is really looking horrible for Thailand. 99% of all the BS posted on CSI LA is a joke with no actual proof of anything. 1

Pm Prayuth what has happened to Thailand?a military statemost wanted it and are happy Most of the elite wanted it, the public well that,s for another thread topic My advice to the PM is not to bully the people as the RTP is doing with this case, freedom of speech is of mass importance to people. With Hong Kong protests is this we are above criticism a good idea. Things can change over night
