The Smithy 14 Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Here's the father of the Dutch rape victim's video,a little strange but if it raises awareness then good luck to him.Heard of the same sort of attacks in Rawai,Phuket by gangs of drugged-up feral youths.Same problem all over the world but what's the solution? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRErWjo809g What's the solution? Well it would help if there was a police force to uphold the law, and secondly courts that would base their decisions on justice and not on nationality. Ok,so that's never going to happen,what's the realistic solution.Apart from coming on Thai Visa to whinge about it? Link to post Share on other sites

Speechless After another conversation with my friend, who was at the police station today.It seems that the boy has been released .A Thai friend of mine told me that it was the boy, that did the slashing . I'm trying to translate what he told me in Thai. Maybe there was no money involved. He meant next time ,he will pay 5000 for bail....Whatever ....he is out and that's that.. ..Im trying to give solid information about this attack ,with no BS... Sometimes things get mixed up in translation..... Sorry about the misinformation .i will double check next time .......... Link to post Share on other sites

carmine 5,524 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Wait till news of the release is reported back in the UK. What a statement it sends out. Absolutely shameful episode. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
likewise 625 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 (edited) This morning I had a conversation with a cop buddy and according to him the reason why they are so easy on the bail issue is because prisons are overcrowded. Krabi prison for example is made for 700 inmates but is housing 1600 of them ! So apparently everybody gets bail till they are sentenced by the higher courts, meaning after appealing the first court's verdict, criminals will finally end up in prison, this is of course if they haven't found the right people to make it all go away! Only the real poor ones who can't afford bail or whom haven't got friends or relatives to post bail will go directly to prison. Also the convicted ones rarely serve more then 1/3 of their sentence, knew of a guy got convicted to 10 years yet was released after serving 3 years ! Sad that the government doesn't see this as a urgent issue to deal with..... Edited October 30, 2012 by likewise Link to post Share on other sites
