  20. "Meanwhile, the millionaire parents of the two suspects, who are brothers, have spoken to the New Zealand press about the situation, which you can read here. In brief, they stated they were shocked by the situation, had obtained the services of a lawyer, and described the suspects as โ€œ[b]Just two kids on vacation[/b]โ€, stressing that both men had families and children of their own who were deeply concerned about them. https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/watch-parents-of-kiwi-brothers-arrested-in-thailand-speak-as-video-shows-fight-for-control-of-cops-pistol/6CJNBFDOGFHVDB5IRKHJEICKMU/ General Surachet has informed the press that he has instructed Major General Songprod Sirisukkha, the Immigration Region 6 Commander, to cancel the visas of the two New Zealand men in question and prohibit their entry into Thailand in the future. The Chalong Police Chief, Colonel Eakkarat Plaiduang, revealed that these two individuals are currently being taken to the Phuket Provincial Court today (March 18th). The two suspects are facing charges related to robbery, assaulting or resisting an officer on duty, and driving without a valid license. Despite allegedly attempting to bribe the police to avoid further charges, their efforts were unsuccessful. https://thephuketexpress.com/2024/03/18/update-two-new-zealand-suspects-in-alleged-assault-of-thai-cop-to-have-visas-revoked-head-to-court/ The Bangkok Post reported that the Days initially sped up before stopping, allegedly shouting at the police officer who recorded their actions on his mobile phone. At that point, it was alleged, the New Zealand tourists attempted to block the recording in an altercation that turned physical and led to a shot being fired from the officerโ€™s automatic pistol during a scuffle for control of the weapon.
  21. since i got my Motorcycle thai license ( having only held a car license for 25 years here) back in Feb 2023 i have not been stopped ONCE at any check point I think it has to do with I ride a honda wave which are not rented to tourists anymore ๐Ÿ™‚ regarding this incident: You DONT assault a thai policeman Or any police men anywhere i've lived here a LONG time and have ever heard of a tourist or local getting shot at a check point UNLESS they were really bad people> so how could they be in "fear for their lives" which is what their lawyer will claim>>
