webfact Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Police Chief: Details of bomb attack can't be disclosedBANGKOK, 7 September 2015 (NNT)-The Royal Thai Police Chief said today that legal action would be taken against anyone found to be involved in the Ratchaprasong blast.The Police Chief, Police General Somyos Poompanmuang, said at this point details of the in-depth investigation into the explosion on August 17th can’t be disclosed as it could affect the ongoing investigation.In addition, information given to the authorities by the suspects during interrogation is not always credible, the Chief said. Evidence and witness accounts will have to be taken into consideration to decide if they have told the truth.Police General Somyos said there is however, enough evidence to prosecute the suspects. He also expressed his belief that police investigators have been doing their job efficiently, and that they will be able to answer public questions regarding the bombing.-- NNT 2015-09-07 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcutman Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 What can they prosecute them for? Other than having fake passports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmugghc Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Illegal entry into Thailand? Illegal border crossing attempt out of Thailand? Overstay? Possession of bomb-making equipment? Just wild guesses.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swissie Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 You can't disclose details, if you don't have any. But not to worry, eventually they will select a "Guilty-Farang" among the vast pool of foreign residents. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigeone Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 I'm sorry but it sounds too much like a certain other perfect case! I'm not sure they know anything. Seems a lot of people arrested as normally this sort of crime involves a cell of maybe 3 or 4. Hope they have got them but it all sounds a bit disjointed to me. Also nobody has claimed responsibility for the bombing which is unusual too. Watch and wait is my mindset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longtom Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 He is actually making a valid point. Except that most of the information given to the press comes from police sources, just hours after the crime, including pictures, CCTV footage and police comments in all directions. Best examples are the Koh Tao murders and the big Bangkok bomb (http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/854224-sa-kaew-suspect-identifies-mastermind-of-bangkok-blasts/).

phoenixdoglover Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Two weeks ago, Somyot was gabbing about the case every day, and saying a lot of things that made little sense.. Now he is reticent. Somebody had a talk with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bamnutsak Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Interesting that he needs to issue a statement to say that he can't disclose anything. What a silly man. Just retire three weeks early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waldroj Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 After all the "incredible" information provided by Poompanmuang since the atrocity, is beggars belief that he says something like this, "...information given to the authorities by the suspects during interrogation is not always credible..." As Honest Abe said, "You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time".

mojorison Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Can't be disclosed, but we'll have a re-enactment, with a guy in a yellow shirt, who was not the actual guy IN the yellow shirt, and we'll worry about the justice issues and right to a free trial later. As long as we can manipulate a bit of public opinion one way or another, and pretend to all and sundry that we are on top of things. FARCICAL ... again.

Muzarella Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Thailand needs to learn from the USA, in the war to terror. If somebody in the US is arrested for bomb making, support to suspected terrorist inside or outside of the country, promotion of violence against the government, etc, etc, etc....will just disappear without any explanation or legal action. And looks like is very democratic way to resolve the problem without the needs of any accountability. After all.... it is the USA way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
