webfact Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 CSD commandos search former MP’s house in Uthai ThaniBANGKOK: -- Over a hundred Bangkok-based Crime Suppression Division (CSD) commando police conducted simultaneous searches of 12 places in Uthai Thani's Muang and Sawang-arom districts in an effort to crack down on gun-related crimes which were on the rise recently.The operation was aimed at the networks of 2-3 influential groups in the province which the police said were responsible for the surge of crimes.Four places which included the house of the former Chart Thai Pattana party’s MP Chada Thaiset were searched after police received information that a suspected hired gunman was hiding there.The gunman, Nirund Puengsampao, was among a group of gunmen responsible for shooting dead the police chief of Sai Ngam district of Kamphaeng Phet province in April in 2011. The shooting happened in front of the police officer’s house in Nakhon Sawan province.But the suspected gunman was not found.Only the former MP’s sister who is a mayor of Uthai Thani municipality was in the house.She denied the gunman was hiding in the house and saud she didn’t know him.But she said her brother might know the suspected gunman because he was well-known in the province as he was a former MP.She also said only outsiders would look at her family as influential while local people saw differently.However police said they had information that the former MP was acquainted with the gunman.A handgun and ammunition were found in the house but all were all legally registered.Source: http://englishnews.thaipbs.or.th/csd-commandos-search-former-mps-house-in-uthai-thani -- Thai PBS 2015-07-23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dictater Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Ok, but why the wooden buffalo head? What law does that break. These are things that get lumped together which makes the real laws meaningless. Like people thinking playing cards are illegal because they can be used to gamble. So now if you have one of these ugly wooden buffalo heads it must mean that your holding cache of illegal weapons as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glasswort Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Confusing picture, headline and report. The report indicates "A handgun and ammunition were found in the house but all were all legally registered." So where were the weapons etc. that are shown in the picture actually found? At a different location altogether presumably? Totally inaccurate reporting yet again. What happened to editing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
