Red Bull Heir Fails to Appear, Again. Given Another Chance, Again.

By Sasiwan Mokkhasen

Staff Reporter

BANGKOK — A deadline passed at 4pm today for Red Bull heir Vorayuth “Boss” Yoovidhya to meet with prosecutors four years after he killed a Thonglor cop, but the 31-year-old fugitive will be given yet another chance before a warrant is sought for his arrest.

Prosecutor Suthi Kittisupaporn said Vorayuth’s failure to appear Wednesday afternoon without providing a reason will be met with a second request for Thonglor police, who are responsible for the case, to summon him.

Once again...Money Walks.....

By this rate he will move to Greenland.....

[beano2274]

thought he was hiding in Singapore!!

[billd766]

Throw his Father and Mother in jail and see what family loyalty will do then.

When he comes to face the music then release them.

[daveAustin]

I can't see the point in these stories being put to the public. All it does is draw ire and frustration because everyone knows that little shits like this will never be brought to book for their actions.

[steelepulse]

I think we all called this a month or so ago when this case was brought up in the news.

[docshock13]

He must be shaking in his boots. Not another REQUEST!?!?!?!

[Koosdedooes]

oh come on you have to cut the young guy some slack....flu and colds can take a long time to get over

[Winniedapu]

Thailand shows its true colours.

Despicable and corrupt to the core.

Winnie

[surangw]

taking longer than usual to get a fake passport ?

[Lannig]

He should start a club with the Dhammachayo abbot. The Club Of Indefinitely Sick Criminals.

Targeting relatively-innocent parties such as Mum & Dad is despicable in most civilized countries, so leave them out of it.

Besides, from the perp's lack of morals, I don't think that he would give a toss about his parents anyway,

[benbear]

Red bull does give you wings, he's out of Thailand by now lonnnnnnnnnnnng gooooooooooooooneeeeeeee

[DavisH]

What's the going rate for "another chance" I wonder....

[elgordo38]

Words fail

I think he has a whole book of "Chance" tickets. He just tears one out and sends it in. He makes a mockery of the justice system here and the police treat him like well you know. Its all a cruel joke and makes the police really look like JA

The family of the cop settled for 3 million Baht? These people are USD BILLIONAIRES. 3 million baht won't last long with a tribe of kids to feed and educate. But that's peripheral to the point.

Actually having family or friends attempt to influence the wheels of justice via bribery or other means is a criminal offense in most countries. This little twerp has no ability to hide from justice without his daddy's help. If this whole sordid affair bothers you then instead of whining here on TV just advocate to friends not to drink Red Bull (easy for me as I am a Lipo fan) and to boycott any branded Red Bull licensed product anywhere on the globe.

[Cuchulainn]

What do you expect from sh1t?

[djayz]

Wow! What a surprise! Who would've thought that?

[Reigntax]

This is one guy who needs some attitude adjustment. Then some facial adjustment....and more!

[Reigntax]

A suitable husband for the 9 kill bimbo maybe?

Plenty to talk about around the dinner table.

"Kill anyone today, darling"

"No"

" oh there is always tomorrow"

[Pattaya28]

Sickening.

[The manic]

In answer to your final question -To protect the power elite and render them immune to economic and social justice. To neutralise the will of the people via the threat of violence.

[streetsweeper]

Not a single reporter in Thailand is going to question the junta leader about this case.

This should be on the front page of every international newspaper!

Another reason I have sold everything in Chiang Mai and heading to somewhere with a modicum of self respect and justice.

[Winniedapu]

Another fine example of all powerful Mr Section 44 Generalissimo Prayuth not putting an end to corruption.

Tell me, why did we need to have this coup?

Because the 1% didn't trust that their hegemony would continue if they allowed the population to have a free choice.

Winnie.

...why try so hard to avoid a small fine, a suspended sentence and perhaps optional community service?

[ratcatcher]

...why try so hard to avoid a small fine, a suspended sentence and perhaps optional community service?

I don't think he's even trying.

Nobody's saying where he is, indeed he could be heading for Monaco to watch Vettel & Raikkonen drive Ferraris faster than he did, without killing anyone.

He is merely another decadent hi-so waste of space.

Red Bull heir given another chance to surrender to public prosecution



BANGKOK: -- Red Bull energy heir Vorayuth Yoovidhya will be given another chance to turn himself in to meet with public prosecutors to acknowledge charges against him in connection with the death of a traffic policeman in a road accident three years ago.

Mr Sutthi Kittisupaporn, public prosecution director-general of Bangkok South Criminal Litigation Office, said that, if Vorayuth failed to show up by 4 pm on Wednesday without giving any proper reason, public prosecutor in charge of the case would ask police enquiry officers to find out what happened to the suspect and to issue another summons against him.

Failing to answer this summons without a good reason, Mr Sutthi said that the public prosecutor would seek the court’s warrant for the arrest of the Red Bull heir because his failure to turn himself in this time would be considered as an attempt to foot-drag the case.

Vorayuth is facing charges of reckless driving causing death to the other people, failing to stop his car to help the victim and failing to inform the incident to the nearest police.

Mr Sutthi said the victim’s relatives had petitioned the attorney-general to consider whether additional charges could be lodged against Vorayuth regarding his conduct.

But for the time being, he said that the prosecutor would stick to the two original charges which are reckless driving causing death to the other people and failing to stop to help the injured victim.

He explained that, normally, police enquiry officers would be given between 15-20 days to issue summons to a suspect to show up to acknowledge charges.
