Thread: Policeman killed in hit and run.... Another HiSo crime

note to Min of Foreign Affairs: cancel the miscreant's passport before he buys a Montenegrin document and moves to Dubai...

^ that's probably exactly what they are waiting for. When they get word of successful foreign passport application, only then will the authorities act against his Thai passport, if ever.

You nailed it with the "if ever" comment.

The Hi Sos protect each other because many of them have some history; once that house of cards starts to fall it's not fun- and they know it...

Boss’s passport revoked

The Department of Consular Affairs has revoked the Thai passport of Red Bull heir Vorayuth “Boss” Yoovidhya.

Information Department director-general Ms Busadee Santipitak said on Friday that the Department of Consular Affairs had revoked Vorayuth’s passport as recommended by the Royal Thai Police Office and other agencies concerned.

She said that the revocation of Vorayuth’s passport was in accordance with the Foreign Ministry’s regulation regarding issuance of passports B.E. 2548 as the Red Bull heir was wanted for a fatal car crash in which a traffic police officer of Thonglor police station, Pol Sgt-Maj Vichien Klanprasert, was killed five years ago.

Vorayuth was last reported to have left Bangkok in a private jet for Singapore on April 25 – two days before a warrant was issued for his arrest by the Office of the Attorney-General.

The Thai Interpol said that he flew out of Singapore on April 27 to an undisclosed destination with his private jet still in Singapore.

MPB chief blames translation problem for delay in Vorayuth extradition documents

Police do not drag their feet in the pursuit of the extradition of Red Bull heir Vorayuth “Boss” Yoovidhya to stand trial in the kingdom, but face a problem of translating necessary documents from Thai to English, said Metropolitan Police Bureau commissioner Pol Lt-Gen Sanit Mahathavorn on Wednesday (July 19).

Pol Lt-Gen Sanit’s remark was in response to Mr Amnart Chotichai, director-general of prosecution for foreign affairs, who said on Tuesday that the process of applying for Mr Vorayuth extradition was pending necessary documents from the police.

In accordance with the procedure, he explained that Thonglor police would have to translate the documents and have them sent to the Foreign Affairs Division of the Royal Thai Office to be approved by the national police chief and that the translated documents together with the petition for extradition would have to be sent to his office.

Pol Lt-Gen Sanit explained that that Foreign Affairs Division might not be ready or might feel inconvenient to do the translation work, but he would speed up the process by instructing Thonglor police to find a professional translator from a private translation office.

He expected the translation work would be completed within a few days so that the police could start with the extradition process to have the Red Bull heir sent back to stand trial.

Meanwhile, an informed Thonglor police said that the police had already sent the 34-page documents to a translation office and expected the translation to be completed within Friday.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has already revoked the Thai passport of Vorayuth and has notified its decision to the Interpol and all governments.

According to the police, Vorayuth left Thailand on April 25 this year for an unknown destination.

The Red Bull heir is wanted for reckless driving causing the death of a Thonglor traffic police officer in September 2012.

So it's taken five years to get 34 pages translated ?
What will be the next excuse?

possible examples:

a) pp 31-34 contained mistranslations and had to be redone...
b) courier service responsible for government document delivery lost it...
c) heavy rains made roads to relevant authority impassible...
d) lack of "influential persons" available to support document transfer...
e) fact-finding police committee members still in Europe, fact-finding...

They could've used Google translate, probably better than the likely oops so sorry our paperwork allowed him to squirm off the hook on a technicality.

How much longer do they need to delay until statute of limitations expires?

September?...Or is that another case?...

Seven police officers to face probe for helping Red Bull heir escape the law

The National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) has set up a panel to investigate a group of seven police officers accused of malfeasance in office for allegedly abetting the escape of Red Bull heir Vorayuth Yoovidhya.

An informed NACC said Thursday that the graft-busting agency informed the Royal Thai Police in June of its plan to probe the seven police officers by a panel headed by Mr Surasak Khirivichien, one of the five election commissioners.

The panel is awaiting a response from the Royal Thai Police whether it has any objection against any members of the panel before the launch of the investigation, said the source.

Facing the NACC probe are Pol Maj-Gen Krit Piakaeo, then commander of the 5th division of Metropolitan Police Bureau; Pol Col Sukon Prommayon, deputy commander of 5th division of the MPB; Pol Col Traimate Uthai, deputy commander of the 5th division of the MPB, Pol Col Chumpol Poompuang, superintendent of Thonglor police; Pol Col Samrit Kateyam, an inquiry officer at Thonglor police station; Pol Lt-Col Vibul Thinwattanakul, an inquiry officer at Thonglor police station and Pol Lt-Col Veeradon Thabthimdee, an inquiry officer attached to Thonglor police station.

The six officers were accused of abuse of their positions to help Vorayuth escape legal actions on charges of speeding, driving under the influence of alcohol and drug abuse through their reluctance to issue arrest warrant against the Red Bull heir, hence allowing to escape the law until the statute of limitations of the charges has expired.

Translation of police documents for “Boss” extradition done

The translation of the police documents to request for the extradition of fugitive Red Bull heir Vorayudh “Boss” Yoovidhya has been finished and forwarded to the Royal Thai Police’s Foreign Affairs Division, metropolitan police commissioner Pol Lt Gen Sanit Mahathavorn said on Friday (July 21).

He said the Foreign Affairs Division received the translated documents on Thursday. After the documents have been examined, the RTP will submit it to the Office of the Attorney General.

The OAG will send the request for Mr Vorayudh’s extradition to the country where the fugitive stays. He did not mention the country by its name, saying only that the country has an extradition treaty with Thailand.

The Metropolitan Police chief earlier blames translation problem for delay in submitting extradition document to the OAG.

Pol Lt Gen Sanit said the easiest way to conclude the case is for Mr Vorayudh himself to return to Thailand to fight the case in court because the extradition process is usually time-consuming.

He said he wants this case involving the Red Bull heir to serve as a precedent for other cases so that the people can be assured of the sanctity of the law.

On the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC)’s plan to probe seven police officers accused of foot-dragging and helping the suspect to escape prosecution, Pol Lt Gen Sanit declined to comment.

Mr Vorayudh is wanted in a hit-and-run incident which occurred in an area under the jurisdiction of Thong Lor police on Sept 3, 2012. Thong Lor traffic police officer Wichian Klanprasert was killed in the incident.

Police chief: “I really want Red Bull heir Vorayuth back to Thailand”



Police chief Chakthip Chaijinda reiterated on Thursday (July 27) that the police have wanted Red Bull heir Vorayuth “Boss” Yoovidhya to be extradited back to Thailand to stand trial in connection with the hit-and-run death of Thong Lor policeman, Master-Sergeant Wichien Klanprasert, five years ago.
He, however, defended that the delay in the translation of documents needed for the extradition process was caused by confusion between the Metropolitan Police Bureau (MPB) and the Foreign Affairs Division of the Royal Thai Police.

But since the translation work was completed, he said the MPB would send the translated documents in English language in accordance with the extradition protocol to the country where Vorayuth was confirmed to have resided and if that country has already signed an extradition treaty with Thailand, extradition would not be a problem.

“I really want him (Vorayuth) so that there won’t be any criticism. Initially, there might be confusion about the documents – about who should translate them. I have already given the instruction that the Foreign Affairs Division should translate documents for all police units. If the metropolitan police do not have the translators, they should inform us – not sitting on them without telling (us) whether they can do it or not. Then it can be finished quickly,” he said.

The national police chief went on saying that the foreign affairs police were trying to locate the fugitive in order that a request for his extradition would be sent to authorities concerned of that country where he was located.
Pol Gen Kawee Supanan, a senior advisor attached to the Royal Thai Police, has been assigned to handle the extradition in coordination with the Office of the Attorney-General.
