Ex-royal aide re-enacts alleged crimes
KITTIPONG MANEERIT
THE SUNDAY NATION

BANGKOK: -- FORMER grand chamberlain Montree Sotangkoon was yesterday brought to re-enact his alleged crimes at two locations in Bangkok after being charged with abuse of power and lese majeste.

City police chief Sriwara Rangsipramanakul said the case would be submitted to public prosecutors within 10 days.

On a second day of re-enactments, 53-year-old Montree, who was previously an aide to former princess Srirasmi, was brought to an office in Watthana district in the morning to re-enact an incident where he allegedly collected an envelope containing a Bt2.51-million kickback for a Phetchaburi land deal.

In the afternoon, he was brought to a bank in Bang Rak district where he allegedly collected another Bt2.62-million kickback for a deal involving a nearby plot in Phetchaburi.

He was later brought to the city police's head office for additional interrogation before being sent back to detention - a new training centre for Army conscripts in Thawee Watthana district.

This afternoon police are scheduled to accompany Montree for a re-enactment at his home in the Rama 3 area.

How do you do a re-enactments of receiving bribes? unlike re-enactments of a murder or other

animated crimes, what do you re enact receiving an envelop?

The Thai reenactment with full police photo op is a preposterous illustration of the Thai rigged criminal justice system. These Thai alleged perps are intimidated to o a reenactment never with an attorney.

I am sure that the re-enactment of receiving an envelope has really helped people understand the case. Obviously many people were perplexed by the question, did he receive it with his left or right hand? The state of criminology in this country really does set it far apart from the developed world.

The re enactment consisted of an actor ready to hand the accused an envelope full of Baht, however when the scene was to be acted the envelope was nowhere to be found?

he got it in an envelope. So in the re-enactment, he takes the envelope and put it into his pocket.

Not really a big show but technically a re-enactment.

If he receive it on his bank account in Singapore it is more difficult....

Re-enactment: Reading the screen on the online banking with a smirk??

.......no.......moral of the story........malignant corruption at 'Stage 4 '......

...let's see if this government can continue and bring it under control......

"show us how you did this bribe, okay.. that's good. Now how do you plea"?

my understanding is that he has already confessed.

Look for yet another light-speed trial/conviction/jail process on this LM case....

ER.............

This has got little to do with the Government, ( whoever they may be ) and is unlikely to be instigated by them.

And the rest cannot be said.....

That's a tadge confusing headline then. If he's put his hands up why is it still "alleged"? I guess the answer is T.I.T...

as I understand, he didn't even have a lawyer... he had a dozen or so examples go ahead of him, so ...

In other words, he knows where this is all going and he knows that he has no choice.

You just now figure that out? I noticed that on my first viewing of Thai television news. Admit your guilt, receive 50% discount on your sentence and save the State the time and money to properly prosecute you. The US commonly 'plea bargains' a case down to a much lower offense to get a conviction. In the big scheme of things it doesn't matter if you are guilty or innocent. Justice systems don't want justice, they want closure.

As for the reenactments, I think they are very entertaining 'reality' TV. In the US, we have 'perp walks', where the alleged perpetrator is paraded in from to the press wearing hand-cuffs on the way being processed by the police.
