Popular Post Lite Beer Posted August 2, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted August 2, 2014 Army’s National Coucil for Peace and Order (NCPO) now involved in the attack on an Australian man in Samui Jack wearing his face mask KOH SAMUI: -- In a shocking turn of events, the two suspects that were arrested for the attack on Australian national Jack Hansen-Bartel, Raymond Chang and Ryan Wang, have 6 weeks later decided to lay charges against the victim.After reviewing legal documents and speaking with people involved in the case, the Army’s National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO) stepped forward on Thursdsay after Jack was charged. Colonel Werachon Sukondhapatipak of the NCPO advised in Thursdays meeting between NCPO, military lawyers, Jack’s legal team from Kanung and Partners and a representative from the Koh Samui police department Lieutenant Pongkajohn Sukkasang, that they would oversee the entire process from now on, in conjunction with Colonel Stit Promutai of the Bo Phut police station in Koh Samui, due to the submission of fraudulent evidence and possible corruption from the assailants legal representatives. Colonel Werachon said that the NCPO is heavily combating corruption in Thailand and that it is a main priority for the governing military junta. He advised that both Thai and foreign nationals such as Jack should be secure in the fact that the NCPO, in conjunction with the Koh Samui police department, is determined to make sure this is a fair and transparent legal process.The attack on Jack took place on the 9th of July at the Green Mango Nightclub in Chaweng. Jack was left with severe facial injuries and faces another 12 – 18 months of surgery and presently wears a face mask. Wang and Chang On the 24th of July the father or Raymond Chang, a wealthy international executive arrived at the court with his son and Ryan, where the boy’s passports were confiscated due to the boys taking part in non essential travel and holidays abroad that broke their bail conditions. On the way into the court Chang SNR attacked a channel seven cameraman from Australia breaking the microphone.

chooka Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Charged with what exactly? Are these two going to claim self defence, two against one? Excessive force by two on one so they have a huge hurdle to jump. Dealt with this type of thing hundreds of times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JacChang Posted August 2, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted August 2, 2014 I hope the cameraman from channel seven sues and files charges against Raymond Chang. What an ass, even after this incident, he still dares to use force. Someone should teach him that being rich doesn't mean you can be a lowlife without class. And this didn't happen in his country, he is probably even more cocky there. Hope someone here can send this updated 2nd attack of Raymond Chang to their new applying universities. The only place this guy needs education in, is bachelor of jail. I'm sure the inmates will teach him a thing or two about courtesy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indothai Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I'm pretty sure these guys caused some havok before they messed with the wrong guy. Pretty obvious they are here for some "fun" and it seems they haven't learned their lessons. I do hope the camera man sues them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baerboxer Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 "due to the submission of fraudulent evidence and possible corruption from the assailants legal representatives." Pastry boxes anyone? Once again there seems possible corruption from lawyers. If proved, will they be disbarred? Wonder if Mr. Chang thought that. as in lots of Asian countries, things could be "smoothed" over easily with the right facilitation? Looks like not this time. Hope the Aussie cameraman sues as well.

jack1965 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 It's very good news to see that some real justice will be achieved if corrupt officials are given the big stick ! Good news for Thai tourism too. Thailand was once known as the Land of Smiles. It can regain its reputation for the best Holiday destination in Asia if foreigners feel secure and safe again. Thailand and its real people are very beautiful good hearted people. Stamp out corruption and injustice and people will come back again to the Lost Land of Smiles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisY1 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Something that the Thai Hi-So have to understand it seems......while money can buy favourable assistance from the authorities, namely cops, influentials, etc.......the new boys in town ain't gonna take it...........

TimCM Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I will believe all this if the people responsible actually spend time in jail, not just getting named in another press release. The fact that they are out on bail is something that we have seen too many times before 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tx22cb Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Well done NCPO. The Changs/Wangs are taking the well-trodden route of rich a##holes - hire shady lawyers to bogus-sue the victims, hoping to prolong the process so that the victims will run out of money on court fees. The NCPO should cut the red tape and finalise the proceedings in 1 week, and throw the book at the crooked lawyers too. And hit the despicable father hard - with US-levels of compensation.

jack1965 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Actually, the Victim should be issuing Civil proceedings for compensation and Punitive Damages against the perpetrators and the Night Club where this took place. One of the huge problems with Night Clubs in all major tourist resorts in Developing poor countries is the very low level of security and alcohol/drug control in nightclubs. In several clubs, drugs are sold over the Counter like soft drink and there is no security safety. Many bouncers are also untrained and very violent . The Clubs also seem very friendly with local tourist police who often do not charge violent Bouncers at all and do not properly investigate crimes occurring at Club premises . The entire night Club industry needs to be cleaned up and corrupt police kicked out of the force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do people when they come to Thailand forget all about what things are like back in their home countries ? Go to any city or large town over any given weekend in the UK and you will witness more violence and bloodshed over that weekend than you will get in a season in Soi green mango. You would think that Thailand was the only place in the world where this type of thing happens. I feel far more at ease going for a night out here than in a strange town back in the UK by far 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khounteen Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Many have the mindset that nothing will happen to them on their holidays and they set out doing things behaving in ways they will not normally do at home, unfortunately many found out the hard way that sheet can happen anywhere.

MK1 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 (edited) In the end, the assailant boys behaving badly, if their charges against the victim are dismissed, will mostly likely be fined bht1000 each and barred from re-entering Thailand. However, there’s the issue of owing a duty of care to the victim in terms of the cost of hospitalization and facial reconstruction which could amount to Bht500,000.00+ in Samui. No wonder daddy had to fly in. Edited August 3, 2014 by MK1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Number 3 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 If the ncpo and colonel stit of Samui police station are now working on this case together surely we will see a quick resolution to this circus like event. I would think to have both working together in this case may be something quite new - although I cannot be sure of this. In reality this case could illustrate a real turning point for Samui justice I would like to know who will be first to offer this family a book deal or a hbo lifetime movie deal - this appears to be playing out as the scripted performance that was predicted, except for ncpos involvement. That aspect was the only aspect that I don't think was foreseen. The fabricated counter charges were of course predicted the only surprise is that it took 6 weeks to work out the stories behind them. Bravo to this family and their search for justice. the brother has ensured that social media is kept up to date and is playing a key role in maintaining focus on this case. Purdue and Cornell must be asking questions on the quality of student that they accept and hopefully will review their decisions. Bravo to general stit and the ncpo in working together to help this victim of crime. I do hope this isn't a one off for publicity purposes though.

Emster23 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 "one of the suspects fathers attacked the Chanel 7 camera man breaking his microphone, as can be seen on the Chanel 7 video news report. It is unknown weather channel 7 will be pressing charges against the man." Why didn't the police arrest on the spot? If I get into a fight, the police wouldn't send me home and say "We'll contact you later regarding assault you just committed... " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
