I hear you & understand what you're driving at.
'Under law'... what is the Thai law regarding reporting of such matters? How would it be handled? Would a person's dignity & human rights be upheld - even if a suspect? Under Thai law, are you guilty until proven innocent, or innocent until proved guilty? It makes a difference.
Look at John Mark Karr, for instance. The fellow was technically innocent under western law, but as guilty as all hell, under Thai interpretation.
