This morning I read that Dung, has been acuqitted of murder. This was due to insufficient evidence. What do you think? Is this another case of this is Thailand!

I read the same. I guess this chap and O/J can combine efforts - looking for the "real killers". I wonder what sort of noble deeds we can look forward to over the next 30 years or so, from the upstanding pair of brothers.

no he didn't do it!! his driver did it dressed up as him

Absolutely correct. The son was so innocent.

His father has the son(s) he deserves....

Thailand has the finest justice system that money can buy

I think that one of the most important things for foreigners who want to live here is to learn to accept the Thai Justice System.

Nor the war on 'dark influences' either.

No! You should have said that what foreigners here should remember, is that there is no Justice System in Thailand

no he didn't do it!! his driver did it dressed up as him

He and his driver were abroad at the time

I sat drinking my morning coffee at the local newsagents today and the girl there noticed me shaking my head at the "Not Guilty" report in The Nation.

She says, "Mai dee, na?.... Nee keu muang Thai."

Sometimes I just despair with this country.

I feel everybody's collective pain but honestly, is there anybody out there who actually thought that he would be found guilty? I always assumed that the fix was in from the moment he surrendered himself to the authorities.

Banana justice.......

In this benighted country where face and status rule, crimes are committed but no one commits them, mistakes are made but they are honest mistakes, so no one can be held responsible.

"..... and justice wept"

I'm not sure about that but justice got very rich!

Wonder what colour the Judges Benz will be.

The Chief Judge was concerned about te backlash to the "verdict" LOL. Verdict. Hah.

Wonder what colour the Judges Benz will be.

They have a few Benz already.

I guess this one will provide for quite a very, very comfortable retirement,... (if they want to retire, maybe a few more juicy cases on their way. So easy, can not stop,...)

Sad really when you consider the fearles leaders blatherings about "first world"

If our Dear Leader really wanted to get rid of the corruption, he should start with the judiciary. If the judiciary is clean, the rest will follow pretty fast,...

But I am afraid it will not come to Thailand during my lifetime,...

Reading the post this morning, Toxin, seems to be endorsing the view that there was a lack of clear evidence in this case. I think that says it all.

Although I think the police force should be first, but how?

anyone interested in buying the DVD of the event can buy one in Patpong - no sound though

just kidding

but wouldnt it be nice justice if someone was clever enough to make a copy - then let the thai legal system do its thing and then mass release this evidence to the market

interesting plot for a thai movie

The only crime(as Thais see it) that is rendered swift justice here is the slander laws.

Murder tut tut.

As to PM jerking out Judicary remember he still owes them on his I forgot about 600 million baht fiasco.

The boys mother was a judge and his father is still referred too as Pol Capt.

Enough said

I do believe he was banned from entertainment venues for 2 years. That is certainly punishment enough. All the witnesses saw was the guy standing over the dead body before he fled. And hey, when a guy gets shot, what inncoent person doesn't stand over the body for a good last stare before fleeing the country?

ONE WORD ASS#OLE. KARMA.

He and his idiot brothers were cut from the cloth of the idiot father, that seems to be a given.

At least the situation is clearer now.

No policeman will ever try again to stop a "high level" Thai to do whatever he wants,...

This, according to one newspaper, was one of the reasons that Duang was acquitted.

"Based on the appearance of the wound on Suwichai's head, forensic scientific tests indicated that he had been shot at point-blank range. All prosecution witnesses testified that they had seen Duang standing one metre from him as he let his outstretched arm drop to his side"

Obviously one metre, or arms length, is not considered close enough to be point-blank.

according to the news story there were two undercover policemen ( one was shot ) on duty in the club that night..what was the testimony of the one that survived and what led them into the situation where one was shot?

according to the nation www.nationmultimedia.com there is a bit of discussion going on on thai web boards about this
