jamesbrock Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Quote He said police were investigating the possibility that the thief was an insider because a key card was required to enter the room and only one desk was ransacked. Glad we have these Sherlocks on the case! How many "outsiders" have keycards, the knowledge of which one specific desk had gold and cash, and, presumably, the access to turn off the CCTV system?

DaveE13 Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 How can a court have no working CCTV? Oh then again forgot where it is. Disgraceful but not unexpected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinneil Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 No working cctv, well that is normal here. How many things do you see broken and never fixed here? Somebody sees something broke and they do nothing about it ( not my problem ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko45k Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Well at least sack the guy responsible for maintaining them... not like he would be missed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lupatria Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Soon we will learn about the reason why the CCTV was out-of-order: brake failure! Must be the climate, it happens here all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonmoon Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Son of general got beaten up, cameras no where to be found, in repair shop. Boy beaten up in school. Cameras not working. Theft in government court, cameras not working. My car speeding 100km on the expressway. Speed cameras capture me in full glory and promptly send the traffic violation charge and fine to my house with pictures too. Well Done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waldroj Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 "...every security camera in the area was out of order..." Nothing unusual about this, really !!! Pretty much like everything else in Thailand, it's only a façade. Scratch away at the surface, and the whole rotten core becomes exposed for what it is (like one big house of cards precariously balanced, and ready to topple).

NCC1701A Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 the problem with cameras is they are like police who actually do their job. you can't have that in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bheard Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 " Pol Colonel Narat Mulasartsathorn of Paholyothin Police Station said he had ordered forensic officials to collect evidence. " And the next sentence might be: "Pol Colonel Narat Mulasartsathorn of Paholyothin Police Station also said he had ordered a full investigation into the reasons the cameras were all inoperative at the time, and staff responsible for scheduled checking of the cameras' operation would be dealt with appropriately." Or something to that effect. But surely he did order that. Didn't he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This article speaks volumes. Maybe the person owning the bracelet and money should have an undue wealth check . Leaving baubles like this lying around deserves it. None of the cameras working at the criminal courts why that is criminal in itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt the same guy installed the cameras in the DSI jails. Haul him out and execute him, credit to NCC1701A who authored my new favorite solution to everything.

sandemara Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 What proof is there that the cash and jewellery really existed? Would the total insurance value cover drinks and food for a New Years' nosh-up or a small but pressing debt? Would a court official be expected to discuss the level of common sense required to leave a little treasure trove in a desk over a long public holiday period in his/he next promotion application?

Do they still behead people here? or question them to death the example being the guy that mysteriously died in his cell. Still an open archived case I believe. Guess the BIB is to busy protecting the living. Edited January 4, 2017 by elgordo38 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
