Two confess to killing Turkish tourist in Samui

[ll2 1,638]

Straight out murder then by a couple of numbskulls.

Who walks into a bar ( forang ) tooled up with a pistol

If you ask me this Turk was a menace and probably played with fire and got burnt

I am sorry but more to this story than what is written and it ain't murder

If someone specially a foreigner was to come into my place of business and start trouble and i could see he was tooled up then should I let him bully and intimidate me in my own bar ( if I was thai ) in my own country

Some people just read a comment without a clue

People

Don't just shoot people out in the open without some sort of argument

I reckon if he wasn't carrying a gun he would will be here today

that is crazy to say, fist of all, i dont believe he was carrying a gun and even he was carrying a gun, is it a reason for two guys shot a guy with multiple guns and with one final shot on the ground?

second if lets say it is Songkran and one carrying a toy water gun on his waist, do they still shoot that guy?

why some bar guys are armed in an advertised as peaceful paradise island of Koh Samui?

do they shoot everyone creating problems?

this is like f...i..n..g wild wild west man if you think it aint murder! maybe this is very normal for you but not for everyone!

lets say turkish guy is a problematic one still i believe Thai guys overreacted and want to show some power. they get some ego explosions at times you know.

and for the police, i am sure they checked the cctv cameras at the first place and possibly know the truth from the beginning but...(you can guess the rest:))

There is no good reason for killing drunken customers when you are in the bar business.

2 people shooting twice at an unarmed and wounded drunken customer show how they consider their customers in general, drunken or not.

Employing killers as security guard and bar manager says enough on the real nature of the business.

There are enough of other places where you can have a drink safely, how can we warn tourists of the danger of some places ( AC bar in KT, Solo bar in KS etc...)?

Once again many posters, blaming the victim.

She smiled nicely and said hello, so she deserved to be raped.

He was drunk and falling down, so he deserved to get his head kicked in.

They should have stayed at a better hotel, so they deserved to be ripped off .

He walked into the bar, when he shouldn't have ,so he deserved to be shot twice. Once at point blank range as he was crawling out the bar.

Sickos .

totally agree!

for some it is easy to shrug the shoulders and close the case.

but no one answers, why the bar guys are armed? where do they find those guns?

Koh Samui is a paradise or a hell wild wild west?

Do island mafia think they can kill anyone and create a setup to confuse the authorities to get away? god knows how many times this is done to numerous victims?

Please focus on the cold blooded murder, not like he is caryying a gun therefore deserved to die. bc it can happen to you as well and even sometime no need to carry a gun to get killed here, no?

My original post on this thread was deleted... i said this was a stitch up in the original thread before this one, now we ALL know it was stitched up and BS... you people still think he wasn't set up/planted with the other pistol as well, if in fact it was on him to begin with, has this been proven as fact or just more BS from the BIB???

So many delusional people here that think that it is still ok to execute people like this... look at the facts sherlocks, he didnt brandish the alleged piece in this incident, he was executed. All the allegations about him calling himself Mafia, which is a Thai thing anyways, given to f wits who think they are tough, may well be true, but from all the evidence given by the BS media is just hearsay, nothing solid and he was probably a Businessman who objected to the BS we all do, when having to do Business here, i have as well and in this f ed up society, he was probably was fed up and has invested his life savings in trying to live here.

Do you people even know how the underworld work here in all areas of their society??? I guess not, because to you it is all cut and dry and you believe the propaganda BS you read from ill informed media and corrupt officials always portraying US farangs as the bad guys, its a complete Thai f*ed up thing about keeping face, it happens in everyday life, all the way up to the stupid Government and higher still...

WAKE up this is not paradise everywhere, it has a seedy, grubby underworld and underlying social understanding, that farang are only good for money and thats it.. there is no respect for us, because they are so intellectually behind first world thinking, its "child-like"...

I feel sorry that their government has not educated their people like they should be, God knows i try everyday to impart some first world respect and knowledge like we are used too to my staff and my wife and kid, but this is Thai life.... in the village and in the tourist areas. GET IT!!! Its barbaric and NOT right, killing is NOT the answer, but who do they have to answer too? A stupid uneducated corrupt police force that will let them off, so its easy pickings. I bet 99.9% of you have never seen this way of life, so dont think it doesnt happen, this happens so much its scary, Thais are smart at doing what we in 1st world countries think is criminal and unjust! DELETE my post again Mods, coz the truth hurts and u cant expose what really goes on here, coz your site will be closed down by the corrupt people that oversee your site, ie the Thai Government and whoever else. Thainess at its best yet again...When will people see that this place and what it does to farang is disgusting! God Bless stay safe!

At this point, well done by the RTP.

But ThaiVisa needs someone to create and manage a new forum: "Whatever Happened To …?"

There are so many stories that have disappeared, that readers are interested in.

What, for example, will happen to these two retards, after the story dies away? A year or two in prison, if not less?

and what will happen to the B2

And what is happening with Mr Looker?

[phetphet 1,530]

I cannot believe how calmly that guy acts after shooting someone in the head at close range. Also in that video in post no.61, he looks like he is smiling at 3:34 when re-enacting for the police.

And what about the french guy.

And what about Christina.

And what about the swiss guy.

And yes, what about Mr looker

[whaleboneman 2,703]

From what I read the staff were also present at the time, so they also lied , maybe the Turk was cutting either the manager or the security mans grass? Problem solved eliminate the competition.

solo bar has been there from day dot.. they are a handy family gang who own that bar.. the shooting wont be much trouble for them .. u get in more trouble driving moped without helmet ...

What do you mean by a handy family gang? Do they do all their own maintenance?

there are probably a few lowlifes supporting this killing and Thailand definately can attract some real scum. Not directed at anyone.

Nobody is saying he deserved to be killed but polot Mehmet better known on Samui as "Ali" has been walking around armed, bragging about his mafia connections for years.

A drunk driver has every chance of ending in a ditch....

It just isn't very surprising news.

Maybe in this case he is a grub Razz, i know there are many bad farang here and if you live by he sword, you deserve to die by it... this place is a haven for bad farang trying to escape the law in their own country for doing wrong, thats why thailand and its Authorities are so f* ed up by the baht and the bribes, they let them in here, so they are to blame for doing this which doesnt make it right for us farang trying to make a living and do the right thing by the law of this land... what i am saying is this, it doesnt just happen to people who deserve it, it happens to normal, good farang as well, who buck the corrupt and racist, unjust system that is Thailands cancer and i never believe anything i read or hear unless it is undeniably proven without a doubt... because through experience, many thais will BS through their back teeth about anything because they dont know common ethical values that we do, from the person selling u a watch on the beach, to the BIB, to the Government, this is a proven fact, you read about it everyday, you live it everyday if you live here, this is the Thai way.

I LOVE Thailand and its people, the same as i love my kids if they lie to me, BUT it has to stop, society has to learn to respect and stop this hatred and scamming and racism against farang, when we are bringing home the bacon to them. Trust me, i have had guns ointed at me, when i am trying to do my job and help build a better place here, because some Thai loses face, i have been bashed because i use my intellect and not fists against stupidity, but because the said Thai, cant keep up with verbal communication, they come back with 4 mates and bash me....Thais are weak by themselves, or without a weapon, thats just who they are, i feel so sorry for them, but this is Thai life.

Sometimes i cannot understand how a society is so lost on moral values and cannot get how to treat their fellow human beings, i am beaten in trying to change it, I am leaving for good once i wrap things up, coz i want to live a happy life again without all the violence and lies, which is ONLY something you will experience if you live here, Peace out!

They will be rewarded with attitude adjustment bail and a slap on the wrist as part of "save tourism's face" for a little tea money fine....

Wanna bet?

I'll take 50 dollars you are wrong. They will serve time in prison or the Pm will lose face and be criticized by the International community.

Amen to reality because up until now we've all been deceived. As tourist we saw a different side but that was because most farang experience only the service sector smiling and waiing thais. But when you unpack your bags to live here then you see the truth. Most the good traditional thais you probably will never have an opportunity to encounter unless you get lost upcountry.

Mmm.. a difficult case for Columbo, it wasn't!!..

'So, as your friend here corroborates, you simply drew your shotgun, Mister Kanapong, and blasted the man down in the early hours of this morning, in self-defence, fearing for your own life?.. and that it's just a pity that this video camera here (without any film in it anyway) was not only empty of film but was aiming AWAY from the direction of the incident, otherwise it would prove the absolute truth of your claims, yes?'.. 'Well, I put it to you, gentlemen, that this array above our heads of other (fully-loaded) cameras aiming DIRECTLY at where the incident took place, AND this .38 caliber pistol, Mister Mehet the 'would-be attacker' held in his deceased hand, with YOUR name on it, Mister Kabin, tell us a very DIFFERENT story...'
