Phuket Manhunt for Expat Killer: Englishman Knifes American to Death

FarangRed · 28-08-2010, 08:28 PM

Think about it, he's got to the UK without getting arressted but he dont know whats going down when he get to Heathrow, he's had long enough to think about what could happen he has taken the lesser of the two evils, to get banged up in the UK or back to Thailand

**Stranger** · 28-08-2010, 08:36 PM

Sorry I'm not convinced.

If there was a warrant for his arrest in England then it's likely he was nabbed at Heathrow Airport (presuming he traveled on his real passport). Giving himself up or not giving himelf up to UK authorities is going to have zero bearing on whether or not he gets extradited back to Thailand.

Warrants are very rarely acted upon at UK airports, and don't flash up when you enter the country unless you are on a watchlist.

Yeah...doesn't add up at all.

So Mr. Aldhouse tells the police to arrest him in London, because he is scared that the BIB from Thailand will come find him, kidnap him and then bundle him into a private jet and fly him back to LOS.

Alternatively, he walks through immigration at Heathrow and is a free man......hmmmmm..........

How many people did they arrest or was it his birthday that day?

Maybe he has an older identical twin brother?

**hazz** · 28-08-2010, 10:35 PM

returned via singapore.

you would have thought that ASEAN would have got some kind of arrangement for flagging up people you want back; wouldn't you.

Given his recent and past history for evading capture and violence I suspect he's going to spend the next 5-10 years in jail whilst extradition is argued over and I am not sure that it could happen to a nicer chap. If he does have a case to answer I hope he gets sent back.

**The Bold Rodney** · 28-08-2010, 10:44 PM

Totally agree with you about sending him back but flagging up people in today's world of data protecton is certainy a difficult one.

Unless of course you happen to be a government agency then anything goes, even more so if your a Thai governmnent agency...

Why would he be held in jail after he has served his time for whatever the UK warrant was for?

He won't be held in jail in the UK for the murder in Thailand if that's what you mean.

True, but if for some reason he seen as a flight risk; he can be held on remand whilst the extradition processed; its not that unusual.

Given that he had an active arrest warrant against him in the UK when he returned, might have warrants in spain and defiantly one in thailand when he left... would the court have an expectation that he would hang around whilst the extradition was processed?

Under what law can the UK government do that?

So you are saying that a country can ask for the extradition of a UK citizen and the police will arrest them and the prison service will hold them until the extradition order is completed?

**dirtydog** · 28-08-2010, 11:05 PM

He is not going to be extradited to a country that may kill him, he's a free man now, well for that murder anyway.

Thailand might just promise not to kill him, in writing, in order to get him back. It has happened before.

Basically yes I am; you seem surprised; David blunket was the most right wing home office minster the uk has had for a very very long time; and you should see the treaty he organised with the US. Its the Extradition Act 2003

Heres the process

when the extradition request is received; it will be inspected by a court, if they are happy with it an arrest warrant will be issued.

There will then be an initial hearing before a district judge who was ask if he will go back, if he wants to fight the extradition a date for a hearing will be set. At this point the judge will decide if he should be bailed or remanded.

As I said, in his shoes I would be very worried. If the thais have a good case I can see the UK police helping thailand with the forensics and the courts being interested in facilitating his return. His final hope would be human rights issues, this is where thailand's past will be coming home to roost. It looks like he could be held on remand for this whole process if the UK judge believes its necessary.

It also looks an undertaking that a death penalty will not be acted on is enough for an extradition to take place and I cannot see any grounds for the UK gov not to trust the thai government on this. Unlike Singapore, Thailand hasn't really shown much enthusiasm for sentencing prisoners from abolitionist countries to death in the recent past.

Warning... me chemist not lawyer

Is he entitled to free RHUBARB during his custardy?
