Lite Beer Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Prosecutor demand more evidence from the police handling Koh Tao case Koh Samui public prosecutor has returned the police case file on Koh Tao murder back to the police with a demand for additional interrogation of the Rohinya interpreter employed by the police. The public prosecutor’s latest move followed complaints from the parents of the two arrested suspects who claimed that the suspects were beaten up by the interpreter to extract their confession to the murder of two British backpackers on Koh Tao in mid-September.Rohinyas and the people of Rakhine state of Myanmar do not get along well with each other and are hostile toward each other. The two suspects are ethnic RakinesEarlier the KohSamui twice asked the police handling the murder case for additional evidences about the case. This was the third demand from the prosecutor.

peptidebomber Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 It was the one armed man! No it was Thaksin, let's blame it on him. I know, blame it on the wookies, Chewbakka did it. I'm confused maybe they just tripped and fell over, did anyone consider that? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Chang_paarp Posted October 31, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 31, 2014 This is what, the second time the prosecutor has sent the brief back to police asking for more information.

longtom Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Very glad to hear that, but am still surprised because usually police/prosecutor/judges in Thailand seem to be, how shall I put it, not stepping on each others turf. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Fatty123 Posted October 31, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 31, 2014 There doesn't appear to be a solid case against the rwo Burmese suspects. No way would they keep returning the file otherwise. This case has me torn. My hunch is that the two Burmese lads are innocent, but if their sperm is in/on Hannah then it has to raise doubts. Massive doubts. If it is sperm from the accussed, we haven't heard them saying the RTP extracted it from them have we? I think what people need to know is the type of DNA found. Was it 'touch DNA' or sperm/skin inside Hannah's fingernails etc.Sharing a cigarrette doesn't prove much, unless the suspects denied ever sitting with her on the beach. I would smell a rat if that was the case. One thing I will say is this...the person or persons that raped Hannah was also the killer (or one of the killers). Some (unbelievably) seem to be in denail about that. Sure, it's possible, but pretty damn unlikely. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have asked this, would be good to know at what point do they release them and who as the authority to do this? I read somwhere they have to be released after 84 days if they are not charged by then. Every 12 days the police have to ask the prosecutor(?) for another 12 days of arrest 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Scully Posted October 31, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 31, 2014 Six years on this site and nothing has ever wound me up as much as this case. The brutal crime and shear incompetence of the authorities, then add to that a sprinkle of obsessive and many times manic posters jumping on every post which dares to question the system. I refuse to get drawn into the merry go round of this freak show, however I must admit this brings a big smile to my face. Turtle island my backside it should be renamed snake island. 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post englishoak Posted October 31, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 31, 2014 So the prosecutors still arnt comfortable theres a solid case, not surprising but 4 times returned now speaks volumes. We are firmly making our way back around to square one.... Sad as that may be its preferable to a slam dunk, scapegoat, case closed option. Its looking more and more like the killers and rapists are still out there, chances are if not caught they will hurt people again. I dare say the UKP are working quietly from scratch anyway looking at everything and everyone on their own merit. It will be interesting to see how things go if we do end up back at the beginning. Those who have been quick to praise the RTP and claim its been a perfect investigation are going to have a hard time defending the glaring truth that its been a farce from beginning to end. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritTim Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Let's hope he hasn't disappeared! Actually, we have all been concerned at the prospect of the Burmese kids "committing suicide", but would't banana man's suicide with a note expressing his remorse at framing them be rather convenient right now? The RTP place all the blame on him, release the current suspects and (depending on how much the UK police know) either arrest the real perps or leave it as an unsolved crime. Not ideal, but better than admitting the RTP engineered it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
