falangjim Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 they are not seeing their lawyers, but reports to the press that they are? that is unfathomable check on that thought Yes, Steve, it is confusing and conflicting. My reading of it is that the lawyers have been permitted access while the RTP have been interrogating them - which is not quite the same as having exclusive access to discuss their defence without any RTP or prison officials present - as stated by the lawyers when the B2 were refused bail. From articles I've read, it seems there is no private room for lawyers and the stitched up B2 to discuss the trial. They talk through the bars of the door. No privacy. No justice. Very typical Thai intimidation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
changnaam Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 It seems though that they are still getting visits and assistance. Andy Hall posted messages today that they were in good spirits so some agencies are seeing them. I am sure they are gaining in hope following yet another "return" of the case due to insufficient evidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomacht8 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 didnt they have a taxi driver "witness" but he was an honest man and wouldn't play ball Here is the story: http://www.prachatai.com/english/node/4373 THE NATIONAL Human Rights Commission will discuss next week what action should be taken after police again failed to answer a summons related to the much-publicised murders on Koh Tao. Despite the summons, police failed to come before an NHRC subcommittee last week and also yesterday. His subcommittee is looking into an allegation that two suspects, both Myanmar nationals, were tortured into confessing to the killing of two British tourists on Koh Tao. http://www.nationmultimedia.com/national/Moves-to-remove-police-from-Koh-Tao-murder-probe-30246902.html If the confessions as evidence disappear, the whole case is on thin ice. The actual course of events in the night of murder seems totally unclear without witnesses.It then remains only circumstantial. And this evidence there en masse and are very contradictory been disseminated in the press. Hopefully the real killers are caught and punished.

SteveFong Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 every time I hear that the prosecution is asking for circumstantial evidence all I hear is, prove they did more than buy a bottle of wine, share a cigarette and then go home after singing songs, or, because they saw the gang rape start, and got the hell out of there so they weren't accidental witnesses had they been a risk to the real killers, they would have bene found floating Sean McAnna was a high risk, and thus, he was chased off the island in fear of being hung from a tree which reminds me, wasn't there a Japanese business woman who was found hanging from a tree on Kho Tao, strung up by a garden hose?

Dogmatix Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 (edited) A German language report on a Swiss national recently reported missing at Sairee Beach is saying the beach is now referred to as 'Murder Beach'. That is very sad for the honest families down there who work hard to make a living from the tourist businesses they own.

SteveFong Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 I don't know that anyone here believes ": the Killers of Kho Tao :" actually intended to kill anyone that night, I personally believe it was a rape that went bad because a witness was involved If the girl was date raped unconscious, they likely would have just left her wake up there, the Miller lad, likely came to her aid, just the way Sean McAnna said it happened, while the "heat was on" I believe Sean, who feared for his life, and would have confessed to every crime he knew about, had he felt he needed too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
