Nanthawit Thiamboonthorn, a deputy commander of the provincial police force.According to Pol.Col.

Emster23 Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I wonder why this doesn't happen more often? All things considered..... no evidence, no case = dismissed. No sprinkler system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slapout Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 those firearms are real prone to break out in flames, bs doesnt change marking, etc on steel frames. fire has become a real hazaqrd in the rice warehouse sector also. i can see the fire inspection team who attends scene, some admitting it akes 2 weeksw to get there as they are short handed of investigators. more bs concrete/brick the biggest fire hazard in thialand unless its a wooden shanty town someone has desire to aquire, otherwise i have been in 60 year old wooden homes where cooking is and has been done inside during bad/cold weather all this time. next part go to temple , monk will give evil eye to bad luck i was told many moons ago the individual makes his own luck , with few exceptions, good or bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manbing Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 It really is too much when a small innocent incident is used to call in question the reputation and integrity of that fine group of men who protect us all. That thin brown line, that skidmark which protects us all from the rule of law breaking down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezzra Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I mean com'on... this story is so fishy on so many levels and it could serve so well into the hands of everybody, from the people whom evidence are kept there so imaginary stuff 'that was there' but now it's gone and no one have to account for it any longer....

DaveinAsia Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 'Firefighters put out flames in police's forensic evidence center' - The guy holding the hose looks a real firefighter indeed, lol. Seems like someone paid some copper to put a light to discriminating evidence....money always talks here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colabamumbai Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 It is always handy for the police to lose the evidence that they do not want to have to present to the courts. I am surprised this does not happen more often especially in high profile cases. The evidience was too hot to handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ggt Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I fear the flames of Thai-bashing and related derogatory comments concerning this fine country will be unleashed by this obvious accident... Just think of all the evidence that has NOT been collected on so-called farang suicides... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srikcir Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Useless fire. The Thai judicial system relies on confessions and not evidence to get convictions. And you can bet the interrogation room has every fire prevention feature on the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobb Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Some body was paid quite well for this fire. No cameras in the police station and no security watching the evidence room. Another act by a person who is friend with some one going to court. Only in Thailand could some thing like this happen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
