Thaidream Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 The only case worse than this is the 4 policemen upcountry who were convicted of murder; received the death penalty and then were allowed bail while they appealed. No further mention after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outsider Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 <deleted> Thailand, when will you stop turning yourself into a real joke? This idiot mowed down a cop, and killed him. Without remorse. Unfair treatment? I wonder if the family of the deceased find it fair that their beloved father/husband was taken away by a stinking elitist <deleted>. This is the true colour of Thailand.

Gotta say, cases like this give me pause about my decision to live and work in Thailand. To date, the paycheck has made it okay, but... Retire here? Probably not. I like the people. Well, at least the ones that stoop low enough to hang out with the likes of me. But between unsolved murders of foreigners and solved, but unpunished killings of all manners of common folk, I'm not sure I'd feel very good about playing in this sand box.

anotheruser Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Why do the courts continue to waste this man's time? It is obvious he doesn't want to go to court and be held accountable so they should just leave it at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomacht8 Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 (edited) Guess he will not appear next time on April 27. His excuse will then be that he has menstruation problems.

You are so right, Digger70. And yet, officially - according to the very first Chapter of the new Thai Constitution - 'the sovereign power belongs to the Thai people'. Did you see that? It is a direct quote. The Thai people - it is enshrined there in the new highest law - have complete control over their collective destiny; it says so. The Thai people are SOVEREIGN. This is the most blatant example of how Thai officialdom (whether at work, in school, in universities, in companies, the courts, in government and beyond) just spout impressive-sounding words - and then disregard those principles the very next second and do the exact opposite thing. And hardly anyone raises a syllable of indignant protest. Probably too busy worrying about whether they are wearing the correct, prescribed. morbid colour coding ... As has been said many times here, the words 'disgraceful' and 'disgusting' don't come anywhere close to what most of us feel about this situation of ultimate hypocrisy and shamelessness.

The old boys network is alive and kicking. You may recall the case of Ernest Saunders ( one of the Guiness Four) who was released early from prison after contracting incurable Alzheimers disease. After his release he made a full recovery from the incurable disease. Money shouts loud accross the globe; the Thais haven't fully mastered the art of keeping it out of the public domain, but they are working hard to change that with their stringent controls of social and traditional media. Yes he recovered completely in about two weeks, but i cannot see this scrote ever appearing in any court, unless maybe the head honcho makes an example, and really show he means business in his quest to rid Thailand of corruption by arresting the brat!

rkidlad Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 A certain member who likes to tell us that the rich and elite here also suffer the consequences of the law is eerily quiet on this story.

No its not- its because ITS THE LAW. As I stated in the other thread, as loathsome and arrogant as he is there was no requirement for him to present himself at this stage.

steve williams Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 This is total loss of face for the PM because the PM has stated that he has changed the justice system so that it fair to all Thai citizen ... clearly it's not the PM should either retract his statements or us Article 44 and step in and see that justice is served for killing a police officer fleeing the scene of an accident and then leaving the country Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farcanell Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 This sounds like a real winner for everybody ( except the dead bloke, of course) at the rate they are going, all charges bar the reckless driving charge will be thrown out by the statute of limitations rule.... and the defendant is claiming the cop drove ( recklessly?) into his path. meanwhile... prosecutors originally dealing with the case have been moved or promoted... grab a hold of some of that shjt! and all the while, this skunk has been claiming he hasn't been dealt with fairly by the police.... after killing one of them! but unfortunately, he's to preoccupied in England (running amuck!) to face charges trial in absentia required.... freeze bank accounts / assets.... revoke passport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you point out he was charged, appeared in court and did time. The defenders of Thai "justice" are forever seeking western "swallows" to prove the "Summer" of their assertions. That they are so few and far between (while huge flocks exist in Thailand) only highlights the weakness of their argument.

fdch Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 7 hours ago, webfact said: Red Bull heir “Boss” to face arrest warrant if he misses next summons April 27 BANGKOK: -- The Office of the Attorney-General (OAG) announced today that it may issue arrest warrant for Red Bull heir if he fails to appear before the attorney-general on April 27 to hear formal charges against him. Affirmation of the pursuance of legal action against Vorayuth “Boss” Yoovidhya, 31, was announced by the OAG deputy spokesman Prayut Phetkun at a press conference to report progress in the controversial case that has been dragged on for almost five years. The spokesman said the OAG did not stay put in pursuing legal suit against the heir, reasoning that the delay was due to the suspect did not report himself to the prosecutors but designated lawyers to ask for the postponement of hearing his prosecution. Earlier the OAG has set today for the suspect to report himself but his lawyers asked to put it off to April 27, he said. He said if he does not show up again on April 27 to hear charges, the OAG might consider to issue arrest warrant for him. He said that the OAG did not neglect the case but it was delayed because the suspect filed complaint to the Commission for Law, Police and Justice of the National Legislative Assembly seeking for justice after the police and the prosecutors have conflict on speeding charge against him. The conflict was later taken advantage by the suspect to seek postponement of his prosecution, he said.
