Big Joke to fly to England to interview teen who claimed rape on Koh Tao

[Inepto Cracy 896]

Why, if this is not true, are there warnings being issued on Phuket now?

I fell victum to this plot twice on Phuket

The law will catch these evil hogs very quickly.

I don't know why people are knocking this move by him. I think it's great considering that the girl says she's afraid to go back and testify. I think it shows he takes the claims seriously enough to give the victim the peace of mind that she can report the alleged crime to him in the protection of her own country. 

 

 

It would serve that purpose better had he not already definitively stated that no rape took place..... And threatened to prosecute her.

Why is he going?? If he says no rape took place, so when he said she wasnt raped, he was telling porkies.

Just shows what a useless bugger he is, surely he will lose face if he goes to interview the girl.

Your absolutely correct. I would also suggest its all boll☆x. These planks not only shoot themselves in the foot they shoot themselves in the boll☆x at the same time.  It's a non runner indeed it's laughable and just about sums up the stupidity of the Royal Thai Police FARCE.

If he is successful in dismissing the victims claim he can try for a triple play and bring Boss and Pu back too!

Maj-Gen Surachate ... reiterated that should the accusations prove to be false the Thai authorities would seek the prosecution of the teen.

And in the event it did happen. Well, one can only speculate as to what outcome there will be ... if any.

I wonder how long his visa application via India will take.

Why is he doing that? He can't speak English. Why not send someone else who could speak the language? Free advertising I suppose! 

I'm sure at the Embassy they have people that speak English and Thai

Oh, dear, I wonder why.... Must have been something the embassy said - or didn't say.

It would probably be in his interest to try and avoid having his nickname come up. Otherwise, any serious purpose to the visit will be lost on the media, who, unlike Thai media, don't bow to the government's every wish.

The BBC should set up a time on TV to broadcast on the enquiry of the Koh Tao murder before allowing this joker to conduct any interview.

unless this is confirmed by the FCO

I call BS

[smew 800]

I guess he wants to prove her wrong: she was not raped. Only she knows if she was or was it consensual intercourse. If she says she was then she was. Now he knows better that she was not raped, who is he to know better... oh I guess a Big Joke

[janclaes47 4,299]

looks to me as if a lot of the TV armchair detectives, who of course have all the proof an evidence that the rape really happened, are now trying to discredit the excellent move of a police officer that goes to the bottom of the case, because they shit themselves as it may turn out that UK forensics don't have any positive DNA tests.

If the RTP had spent as much time objectively investigating the case as they have talking about threatening prosecution of the alleged victim, they might have actually found some legitimate evidence in the case.

 

BTW, why are the authors of the OP article here naming an alleged rape victim???  As best as I recall, she wasn't named in the UK news reports. The way the news report is written, it looks like someone at ThaiVisa decided to add the woman's name into the report.

I hope Big Joke is ready for the streets of South London. The Peckham posse probably think he's a rapper with a name like that. And of course he could experience the genteel atmosphere of a Millwall home game!
