webfact Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 Bato brings home fugitive ex-cop from Thailand trip By: Yuji Vincent Gonzales INQUIRER.net SCREENGRAB FROM Dela Rosa’s Facebook page MANILA: -- “A very productive hunting trip” was how Philippine National Police (PNP) chief Director General Ronald dela Rosa described his visit to Thailand as he brought home with him a former police officer charged with the abduction and murder of a Chinese-Filipino engineer. Dela Rosa took to Facebook on Sunday to share a photo of him at a Thailand airport with the handcuffed fugitive, who was identified as former Police Officer 1 Alexander Pangilinan, an alleged member of the “Dos Pares” group tagged in the death of Michael Chan in 2005. Dela Rosa said Pangilinan served as a resort manager in Thailand.

anon467848 Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 I can't ever remember reading a story about a Thai felon who has fled overseas, being brought back to Thailand. Why is that I wonder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is that I wonder? I could find no contemporary news of Alexander's escape from the Philippines but did find reference to his entry into Thailand, perhaps as early as 2006: "Suspect fled the country & evaded arrest for 10 years while employed as resort manager in Thailand.” http://www.zeibiz.com/2016/10/watch-bato-dela-rosa-brings-home-fugitive-thailand/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is that I wonder? Partly because Thailand's Extradition Act only came into effect in 2008 and these cases tend to move slowly, partly because some countries are reluctant to extradite Thais back to Thailand, for a number of reasons (some of which are quite sensible). The most important test case right now is Nen Kham, the jetset monk, who is being held in US custody. The Thais are trying their best to get him back but it's going to be a long process.

Bluespunk Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 I thought the philippine police were allowed to murder with impunity under the current psycho president. This guy might get a new position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you weren't in such a rush to jump in with a smart remark you'd see my post and the one i was answering were a general reference to police officers not this one in particular.

KhunBENQ Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 (edited) And I thought only Mossad or CIA are capable to take such shortcuts bypassing unwilling foreign governments. How could he simply handcuff the guy and bring him through to the plane passing immigration? He must have had some fruitful informal talk at this police meeting Edited October 17, 2016 by KhunBENQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markusangel Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 It wasn't his intention to publicize this. He was just showing that "in just 3 months " being the chief, he captured a runaway criminal who had been hiding (and working here?) for 10 years the previous administrations' haven't done. Another thing, president Duterte is NOT a psychopath; He was just misunderstood by psychologically-impaired pops. The Philippines will benefit from all of these in the future. There are still 86% of legit population regard this as "immediate need" of the republic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How could he simply handcuff the guy and bring him through to the plane passing immigration? He must have had some fruitful informal talk at this police meeting There was no mention of cooperation by the RTP who has the only authority to arrest and detain suspects IN Thailand. Bota had no such authority on his own. There is no mention of any request for extradition by the Philippine government nor any hearing by the Thai Foreign Ministry to grant extradition. And there's no mention of RTP presence in accused murderer Alexander's departure through and from the airport! How could Bota get Alexander through customs without issue? Aside from any illegal process including a procedural "fix", might Bota have had a diplomatic Philippine passport in Alexander's name that could bypass immigration scrutiny? Notice Alexander's presumbly handcuffed hands were hidden in the picture. Never been an issue in Thailand. Finally, where was Alexander's objection to Bota's detention? While capital punishment had been suspended in the Philippines, President Duterte has indicated he'll support its return in the form of extrajudicial executions. That should give Alexander pause to his life expectancy back in The Philippines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he can! Seems that, just like our own BIB, Filipino cops won't miss out on a good media score and are happy to pull rank to get credit for a good collar. At least this one isn't pointing his finger at the perp, while grinning stupidly into the camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
