webfact Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Special bomb suspect hunting team detain a Frenchman for questioningBANGKOK: -- A French man was being questioned by a special police team assigned to hunt down the Ratchaprasong deadly bomb explosion after he was rejected to board a flight back to the United Kingdom yesterday.The man identified as Mr Louis Nelson David Marie Delapalme, a French nationality, was rejected to board a British Airways Flight yesterday afternoon after his passport No 11CL73181 was soaked with water.The airline staff refused to let him board the plane for UK reasoning that his passport was wet.Denied boarding by the airline, he then waited at the Airport Rail Link terminal to return to the capital.Tourist police at Suvarnabhumi airport saw him and then helped him to coordinate with the French embassy to apply for new travel document.However as he resembled the wanted bomb suspect, and has wound on his right hand, same as the cloth bands worn on both arms of the bomb suspect, the tourist police then booked him for questioning.The Frenchman claimed the wound on his arm was caused by a bite from a snake while he visited Chiang Mai.The tourist police then detained him and alerted the special police team to investigate. The special team is headed by the new national police chief Pol Gen Jaktip Chaichinda who will succeed the current police chief when he retires end of September.According to the special police team, the bomb suspect who was seen in the video footage wearing cloth bands on both his arms might try to conceal some cut wounds on his arms.As the Frenchman has wound on his arm, the special police team then took him in custody at an undisclosed place for questioning.Source: http://englishnews.thaipbs.or.th/special-bomb-suspect-hunting-team-detain-a-frenchman-for-questioning -- Thai PBS 2015-08-19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thesetat2013 Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Here we go.. Gestapo time. They going to arrest everyone they see wearing a bandage on their arm? Manhunts rarely produce desired results and usually injure more innocent people than criminals. What justification is it to to refuse boarding if a passport got wet and to be detained by immigration?

Zolt Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 (edited) Saw that guy's picture yesterday morning making the social media rounds - he posted on his Facebook 19 hours ago photos of his interrogation so I assume he has been either released or is no longer a suspect. He doesn't seem to look that much like the suspect. Light skin, blue eyes. Edited August 19, 2015 by Zolt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemonjelly Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Saw that guy's picture on Monday - he posted on his Facebook 19 hours ago photos of his interrogation so I assume he has been either released or is no longer a suspect.I think that's the Australian guy you're talking about.

Puwa Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 (edited) The investigators seem to have a real thing for foreign male models and actors. I believe it's known as the Zoolander theory. Edited August 19, 2015 by Puwa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaphod reborn Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 (edited) C'mon, this is the guy with the Pink Floyd shirt, Nelson Delapalme. He's too stoned to carry out a bombing. Edited August 19, 2015 by zaphod reborn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manarak Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Here we go.. Gestapo time. They going to arrest everyone they see wearing a bandage on their arm? Manhunts rarely produce desired results and usually injure more innocent people than criminals. What justification is it to to refuse boarding if a passport got wet and to be detained by immigration? A wet passport is phony as the biometric data chip inside the passport may have been tampered with and then soaked to provide a probable cause for the malfunction. Resemblance and wound on the arm is IMO enough to warrant at least a questioning as well as testing for explosives residue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedtripler Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 It will be easy enough for any Dr to recognise a snake bite wound from something else I would assume.... If he's lying, they will know very soon.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Here we go.. Gestapo time. They going to arrest everyone they see wearing a bandage on their arm?" Here we go, daft comment time. No, they're not going to arrest everyone with a bandage but they may question people with a particular type of bandage trying to leave the country in unusual circumstances, don't you think? Perhaps the passport was illegible because it was wet or maybe officials thought the passport and it's condition and possibly the holder's explanation to be suspicious enough to stop him boarding.

swissie Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 By detaining Foreigners with wet Passports at the Airport indicates clearly that they are clueless and are not having a "Hot Trail" to follow up on. Since, (unless you are from the south) Thai people don't throw bombs and the red-shirts have already declared that they have nothing to do with it, there obviously must be some foreign devils involved. Thai logic at it's best. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No its means they have to be seen to be doing something, looks nothing like the guy on the video or if he does by the same measure they should be arresting about 20% of men in the country.

I am neither American nor French. Nor do I think that holding the passport of a country makes you better or worse. The only bias I may have is against the more fanatic members of a religion. So no I don't have any specific wishes.....Doesn't matter at all for me if he is French, Swiss, American, Chinese or Thai. But wouldn't like to hear my country.....

Just1Voice Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Next we're gonna hear the Illustrious, Brilliant Police saying: "Well, we know who they are, but we have it on reliable information they have already fled the country." Reporter: "How they they leave the country." Police: "Ah, we don't know." Reporter: "Where did they go to?" Police: "Ah, we don't know." Reporter: "So, what's going to happen now?" Police: "Ah, we don't know." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
