The Moderator said that in future I was to say "a certain member said ..............," or "a certain person said................" and not to mention the poster by name. That is why rkidlad is not being specific in naming names. In essence, that is the reason for the "cloak and dagger" stuff! That makes sense, thanks.

realenglish1 Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Great what a way to go. Announce you are going to arrest someone a month before you do so that person can make arrangements to be out of Thailand Ok anyone want to bet he will or will not be at the police station April 27th I bet NOT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broken Record Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 I complain about this case too, but if I was in his position, I'd do exactly the same thing, let my highly paid lawyers sort it out. I would pay them to keep me out of jail, that's what they are paid for. I think that would apply to most people, even ( ShockHorror), Puritanical ThaiVisa members.

I am sure that would be the case, the issue for me is that it's even possible and so so blatant and in your face. I believe in most countries fancy lawyers etc can very much do damage limitation for wealthy and connected but for the most part even they cannot get them off completely (there are the odd one) I think that fact alone makes cases like this far rarer on other countries where people know the justice system is far more equitable and even trying to affect it could land people in major trouble.

Totally agree, but most people on here are totally against the position of the RTP. One of there own officers was basically murdered and yet still they made no effort to get this bastard. Which says everything you need to know about the RTP. And the second and even more damming situation regarding the position of the current leader. He is constantly spouting off about corruption, yet has allowed this case to bring utter and total shame on to the Thai Nation.....Article 44 General Pryatt? though not....why not?

The Family will have connections to those who really pull the strings in Thailand, the Police are powerless in a case like this, it goes above them, orders come down from above, orders they dare not disobey. The Heads of The Police and The Army are also virtually untouchable as long as they do as they are told when needed, unless of course orders come down from above, as in the case of Pongpat Chayaphan.

SiamBeast Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 It's simple. If everyone talk about the story, he'll get an indictment date, which will get postponed. As long as nobody talks about it, it'll get swept under the rug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pentap Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Unreal! A possible murderer allowed to roam free. If I had of done, what he allegedly did, where would I be now? Sat in my apartment?

This was a great chance for the junta to prove their opposition to corruption, but as we all know anyway, they aren't going to buck the rich and powerful because it's them that are pulling their strings. The junta was never about the fight against corruption. It is hyperbole, just like building the wall, and making Mexico pay for it. Who believed that? They have always stood for the preservation of the elite, the powerful, the rich, the connected, and those in power. That is why they were installed. Dark Tao, and the so called "boss" case are proof of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
