Making public anything that forces the police to do their actual job, while also showing what actually goes on here, apparently is considered a crime against society.

rkidlad Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Words fail me here sometimes. Authorities encourage people to film or picture motorcycle riders who are riding on the pavement, use a dashcam when driving, but don't film scummy locals molesting unconscious girls. Why not just change the girl as well? Clearly if she hadn't been unconscious these men wouldn't have done this and the police wouldn't have to do their job.

If they're dumb enough to post the video on social media, they deserve to get caught, and whoever filmed and posted the video sure didn't do anything to help the girl.

Welcome to Thailand! Your post basically sums up the law in Thailand. No matter what you do there is always a some current, obscure or outdated law to get you and thus complying with the law is impossible which is why nobody really tries to as it is pointless. If the police wanted to, they could actually arrest everyone in Thailand including tourists as there is a law somewhere in the system you are breaking or have broken.

cyberfarang Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 They couldn`t care less about the girl being sexually assaulted, it`s about uploading footage online and letting the world see what a cesspit of prostitution and crime Pattaya has become over the years. And I wonder what led up to the woman so called victim being unconscious? I am certain if the incident would not had been made public, the lads would have gone on their merry way and no more heard of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anon467367354 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 so let's see, posting the video of two P'sOS molesting a woman and from that video got caught. The video helped the police, but posting the video on social media is illegal. How is it different that is can be posted on TV, which is social media, which I suppose this article can be shared on Facebook which it has been. The video showed two molesters, not good for Thailand's image. TV posts the entire article on their social media site but it doesn't damage Thailand's image. The information is the same, is it not?

Aviatorhi Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 It's really unknown what the context was of the posting, as well as whether the videographer can be seen or heard encouraging the action... additionally, a more appropriate course of action would have been, rather than causing the victim to "lose face" with a public posting online to report, with the victim, to police, versus YouLike/Tube, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess if the persons responsible for videoing the act were actually trying to get the perpetrators caught they could have handed the evidence directly to the police first rather than posting it on social media where it would just attract a different kind of attention before bringing any justice to the case. Give the police the benefit of the doubt first, if all else fails then go ahead & post it to a wider audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The video showed two molesters, not good for Thailand's image. TV posts the entire article on their social media site but it doesn't damage Thailand's image. The information is the same, is it not? A very valid question. But yet there is at least a couple of things to consider. The person who made the video (and apparently in very near proximity ) and assumed as the same person who posted it on social media instead of directly providing the recording to the RTP could be considered an accomplice to the assault in terms of some also obscene self gratification. For TVF to redistribute material that is already in the public domain is likely to be defended as presenting " news". Alternatively it could be viewed as playing on the same voyeuristic appeal as the the original poster possibly had. Despite it seeming ridiculous that by posting the original clip on social media has actually resulted in the abusers being caught or sought I can understand that the motivations/complicity of the person who made the video also needs some investigation. Aiding and abetting is also a crime in many places ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So plastering the face of a sexually abused woman on the internet is a good thing according to you? <deleted>, they had the option of supplying the video to police but wanted to be heroes in the publics eye instead.
