Police formally ask prosecutor for extradition of Boss

 

 

Police have formally asked the public prosecution for the extradition of Red Bull heir Vorayuth “Boss” Yoovidhya to stand trial on hit-and-run charges which led to the death of a Thong Lor traffic policeman five years ago.

 

Amnat Chotichai, director-general of foreign affairs office of the Office of Attorney-General, said Thursday (Aug 10) that he had received a formal request from the Royal Thai Police Office for the extradition of Mr Vorayuth on charges of reckless driving causing the death of the other people and for not stopping to help the victim, Pol Sgt-Maj Wichien Klinprasert of Thong Lor police station.

 

However, Mr Amnat said, the police did not mention in the formal request the whereabouts of Mr Vorayuth, so his office could do nothing until the police have come up with the exact location of the suspect.

 

Mr Amnat, however, said that his office had already prepared the necessary documents related to extradition process and, upon receiving the information about the whereabouts of the suspect, his office would immediately proceed with the extradition.

Obfuscation once again on a grand scale., .

The police did not mention his exact location, so we can do nothing.

So what Amnat is  actually saying, we are not going to do anything, as we cannot do anything, due to the fact we have been bought off.

Police blamed for failure to extradite ‘Boss’

By SURIYA PATATHAYO 
THE NATION

 

 

PUBLIC PROSECUTORS are unable to request the extradition of Red Bull heir Vorayuth “Boss” Yoovidhya on charges relating to a 2012 fatal hit-and-run case because police have failed to identify his current address, according to officials.
 

“It’s the duty of police to investigate and find out where he has gone into hiding,” Amnat Chotchai, director-general of the Office of Attorney-General’s International Affairs Department, said on Thuesday. 

 

Vorayuth is accused of hitting a policeman with his Ferrari, dragging the victim’s body for several metres and failing to stop the car to help man five years ago. 

 

Earlier this year, Vorayuth left Thailand just days before his case went to court, leading to authorities being criticised for a perceived failure to strictly enforce the law against the billionaire suspect.

 

Police and public prosecutors are now under pressure to seek his extradition. 

 

In response to criticism, police submitted a translation of the investigation report backing Vorayuth’s extradition last month. 

 

But Amnat said yesterday that it was necessary that police also identify Vorayuth’s present address “or else we cannot submit the extradition request, even after we have already prepared all necessary documents for it”.

 

Amnat said the statute of the limitations for Vorayuth’s alleged failure to stop his car and help the victim would expire on September 3.

 

“If the process is delayed, that charge may expire,” he said. 

 

The charge of reckless driving causing the death of another has 15-year statute of limitations.

This nonsense amounts to nothing more that the RTP trying to extract more money from the Boy Wonder,

The cow can be milked for as long as the RTP want it to be.

Just issue an Interpol Red notice, then at least someone will be looking for him,

How exact?
Country?
City?
Address?
Latitude and Longitude?
6 figure grid reference?

As for when they will do anything I should imagine we're in the realms of "star dates"!

In the unlikely event of there ever being a revolution in Thailand where the people spontaneously rise up ( a la Tunisia ) and violently overthrow the established order, with corrupt officials , politicians and soldiers dangling from lamposts like grotesque baubles, who could not find some sympathy for the revolutionaries having suffered so much for so long.

That's to easy in Thailand things are done in the most complicated way especially when there is (tea) money involved.

I am pretty sure that there will be some "errors" in the paperwork on a fairly continuous basis, so the whole thing will drag on and on. Big money buys a lot of noncooperation.

Poor boy. He's gonna be on the run for the rest oh his life. What kind of boss is that?

Disgusting corrupt officials

I would love to know how much Boss has paid so far.  I hope it is a lot.

[BasalBanality]

I'm surprised this is still news?

 

Still missing from the Interpol Wanted List.

I would guess that Belgium on the weekend of August 26 might be a good choice!

How about article 44 and try this hiso, international evader from justice in-absentia. 
How about the MPs passing a law to try this and other hiso, international evaders from justice in-absentia. 

The light at the end of the tunnel for this cop-killer is the statute of limitations.  That tunnel needs to be dynamited, figuratively, and that light extinguish.

To coin a US country western song, how about "a lot less talk, and a lot more action?"

But the elites protect their own.

He could be any of our children or us, drink and drugs can affect anyone from any background. This is Thailand, and most of us know the way things work. Would anyone here actually NOT pay of the police to help their kid? 

Sick of hearing the same old replies. Accept that this is what happens in corrupt countries. I'm sure the family of the victim are happy their beloved was killed by a billionaire and not some nobody, who would have to pay 50,000 baht compensation.
