Briggsy Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 These Uighurs are just the nuts and bolts men, the logistics guys, the bomb planter. This is really a battle between military factions for control of the country and its resources. The huge profits from human trafficking is just one of the pots of gold and also one of the tools in the box to gain control of the main prize.

Bellacissa Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 One (of many) thing that has stood out throughout this entire episode has been the lack of evidence displayed in front of the media. This to me, is against regular routine, in that the majority of successful busts leading to recovered items are on display to the media sometimes it seems before they have even been indexed. A couple of photographs have been released and that is that. I would be interested in seeing the C4, TNT and other chemical substances that have been claimed, as well as physical sighting of the detonators, etc. At the other end of the table to the explosives of course....................... However, if doing so would impede further investigation, then carry on and get the job finished. Just seems 'out-of-the-norm', that's all. You wanted to see it all lined up on a table in front of him (all the seized evidence) and 20 cops mugging like jack-asses in the background, yes, it is strange this hasn''t yet happened, the cops do like their photo-ops. Have we had any finger pointing photos yet? No? They are clearly not ready to show their hand. An investigation is not complete until the fingers are pointed.

jinjin Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 The good part about being transferred to an "inactive" posts would be they can sit on their freckles all day. The not so good part for them is that they will probably be removed from any tea money distribution lists. I think you will find that being transferred to inactive positions is a pretext to being fired soon after. They get a hearing first which is why they are never fired straight away. It is the same as being suspended with pay in the west, onl;y difference is that they still have to report to workk in Thailand where in the west they are allowed to stay at home. Mostly true but here's another twist of these arrangements: - Just after the coup one very senior cop lives near me, very big house, was suddenly at home 24/7. - He had a private (non-police) staff of 11. His non-police staff used police vehicles to do their 'errands', mostly from his house. - Turns out he was ordered to not leave his house for any reason 24/7 and prohibited to have any form of contact with police or anybody, and prohibited to have / use any form of phone or radio owned by him or anybody. - His private staff now never see. - Now in jail, sentenced to 12 years.

pmugghc Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 (edited) Good to see some steps to promote accountability. Really...they think a suspect may have gone through that border... Utter rubbish.If you read BP the guy they got in the apartment detailed how he came into Thailand via Vietnam-Laos-Cambodia and paid 18,000 to get in at this border point. But since you seem to know that's untrue, perhaps you could share with the rest of us? Edited September 1, 2015 by pmugghc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
todlad Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Good to see some steps to promote accountability.Rubbish!Were they given a tip-off from a landlord? Were they expected to search how many hundred thousand homes? They are scapegoats. In this instance, I sympathise with the police that have been transferred. And the Immigration officers!!? Really...they think a suspect may have gone through that border... Utter rubbish. Another angry expert: where do you all live? Why do you think their job involved searching hundreds of thousands of homes? What a crass comment. Can you share with us what you know about their orders since you appear to be in the know?

willyumiii Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 "In Bangkok, the officers were transferred for failing to follow an order from police central command to carry out searches of property and “suspicious foreigners” in the wake of the 17 Aug. attack. Responding to the order, police in Min Buri and Nong Chok districts had sent back all-clear reports, indicating no foreigners or bomb-making materials had been found." Were these officers sent specifically to the locations the bomb making materials were later found, and then reported those locations as being "all clear" ? Or are they being held responsible for not finding these specific locations? How practical is it to expect officers to inspect EVERY possible location in two entire districts? More details are needed. I am not convinced this is not just another " dog and pony show" to show the public how "serious" the police really are. If they did search the same properties and did not report the findings, they should be "hung" But if not??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they are underpaid and required to supply their own equipment and supplies, they can not do it without the tea money. It is a system set up to fail set up to require corruption to survive. I do not blame the officers. Enforcing traffic laws and issuing citations with reasonable fines alone, would finance an honest police force.
