GAZZPA Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 1 hour ago, Kerryd said: Actually it was "Dereliction of Duty" (according to Wiki) and she was sentenced to 5 years in prison. Rumoured to somehow have a UK passport though in addition to having been granted citizenship by Serbia of all places. (Another report claims that she doesn't have a UK passport, meaning she's been living there with no passport since she arrived. Try doing that in Thailand without ending up in jail and being deported.) Not sure if the UK considers "dereliction" to be "negligence" but obviously they don't feel any pressure to get rid of her. Note: One article says she was convicted of "Dereliction of Duty" while another article says it was "Criminal Negligence". Could be different interpretations/translations I suppose. Apparently there's a difference (big one) between minor celebrities and rich kids compared to super rich former politicians. You'd think, if someone can kill 9 people and not serve a day in jail, then a couple of corrupt politicians would be given the red carpet and official apologies for merely enriching themselves and their family at public expense ! (Actually, Thaksin did try to buy his way out when he had his lawyer deliver a 2 million baht bribe in a lunch pail to the judge in his trial. When the judge rejected the bribe and threw the lawyer in jail - for 2 years - Thaksin realized he wasn't going to be able to buy his way out. That's when he decided to flee the country.) Not sure about her passport situation, but I do know the UK would enforce the law. Whatever the charges and conviction if they are not common law the UK won't act, they can't and they shouldn't. The law is the law my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerandDog Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 here's the thing, I'm inclined to agree that he's NOT on the interpol red list. it's a known fact that he travels internationally to EVERY formula 1 grande prix. If he were on the red list he would have been arrested years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holy cow cm Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 54 minutes ago, scorecard said: Sure but in all these years the Thai cops have done nothing and even though the whole story has come up again several times for more criticism (like now). Each time it comes up there's very simple non specific comments from the cops and from prime ministers, but nothing happens. it seems to me that the cops will continue to do nothing because there's some of a much higher rank in 'control' of this case and perhaps more. I agree on that level, but if some normal Thai snaps a pic of him out and about here and puts it on social media then the gig is up. I would gather the there might be continual pocket padding or donations going on the entire time. Who knows, maybe the Red Bull owners have some dirty little secrets on everyone. All in all it is interesting, and for the other matter even Thaskin is untouchable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artisi Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 1 hour ago, GAZZPA said: She cannot be extradited from the UK because she has been charged with "negligence" I believe. Under UK law a politician cannot be charge for this so it is not common law, only common law can be used in extradition. However back on topic, this red bull scumbag is guilty of killing a policeman whilst being <deleted> behind the wheel, if it is manslaughter for example that is common law and he would face extradition. Yes it is, and no - he won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nip Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 1 hour ago, Srikcir said: Two more ways to the prosecution of "Boss": 1. Why wasn't he arrested when he returned to Thailand for several days passing through Thai immigration control after arriving and departing via a private aircraft? As I remember, Immigration said it wasn't their responsibility to notify the Police so that allegedly the police only learned of his arrival after he then fled to Singapore. 2. As I recall the "past/current" Prayut government has several times with other alleged criminals who fled the country to avoid prosecution asserted the right to try them in absentia in order to prevent statue of limitations from expiring before their prosecution. Why isn't that done with Boss? Interestingly Immigration are the police one and the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enoon Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 (edited) 39 minutes ago, Derek B said: Hope so - they deserve substantial compensation. The police handling the case probably got more than they did. The victims family will have only got what is considered appropriate for their class/caste. If you're rich you get loads of money, because that's what you're used to. If you're poor you get relatively little........because that's what you're used to. When it comes to punishment a poor person will be treated much more harshly, because they are used to a hard life and need more discomfort for the punishment to register on their "hardened" bodies and brutal minds. A wealthy person will receive much less punishment, because their soft bodies and sensitive emotions will cause them to feel the punishment more intensely. Also, the terrible unhappiness, mental trauma and loss of face for the more emotionally vulnerable wealthy, during the legal proceedings, will have been an awful "punishment" in itself. That being the case, what decent human being (and, needless to say.....good "Buddhist") could not help but feel compassion and forgiveness for them? The whole ghastly system might well be termed "Sufficiency Justice". Edited June 29, 2020 by Enoon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure that they'll be much in evidence at the opening GP at the Red Bull Ring (owned by Red Bull) in Austria , the home of Red Bull, with 4 Red Bull cars on the grid. I believe Jerez may be the first GP with people, so he should be easily spottable there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
