Progress in Mystery Shooting - Pattaya People

 

 

On Wednesday afternoon, the Pattaya Police Investigating Inspector Pol. Lt. Col. Songkram Pahn-iam and a team of police examined the apartment of the new Pattaya Police Superintendent, Pol. Col. Suwan Chiao-na-win-ta-wat, which is located in the Pattaya Policemen’s Flat behind the Pattaya Police Station, on Soi 9 of Pattaya Beach Road. The apartment had been shot at the back balcony, during the Countdown on Monday, December 31st, 2012. A glass window and a shelf were shattered, but no other injuries were reported.

The police found a 12 gauge shotgun shell on the ground, and witnesses stated that a man, wearing clothes like a policeman but appearing to be very drunk, was walking around the flat before the countdown. When the fireworks started, he fired 1 missile at the back balcony of the Police Superintendent, then fled the scene right before the fireworks finished.

The police now have enough information to track down the shooter, who is thought to be a police officer at the Pattaya Police Station. Legal proceedings will be taken against the gunman, as Pol. Col Suwan expects that he is one of the officers who lost a lot of illegal paybacks due to his new anti-corruption and bribery policies. The new Superintendent is insisting on transparency in all police activities, and receiving bribes from shady businesses will no longer be tolerated.

On December 26th 2 female Russian tourists were robbed and raped. The suspects robbed the victims in Soi Pratamnak 2, and took them to Chark-nok Reservoir in Huay Yai where they raped them. These thugs have been on the loose ever since.

On Tuesday morning, the Nongprue Police, led by Superintendent Pol. Col. Somneuk Jangaid, in companied by the Deputy Commissioner of Royal Thai Police Bureau Region 2 Pol. Maj. Gen. Sanchai Chai-ya-am-porn and Police Commander of Chonburi Pol. Maj. Gen. Katcha Tartsart searched a house on Soi Mab-yai-lia 33, of a suspect called Mr. Wichain Jaija, aged 30-35. The 2 victims went to the house and positively identified the blue Toyota Mighty X pickup as the vehicle used to abduct them.

The police requested the owner of this pickup, the ex-wife of Wichain, to go for an interrogation at Nongprue’s Police Station along with the other 2 male suspects.

On the same day, Wichian was arrested and detained. The officers had determined that Wichain and his partner in crime had raped and robbed the 2 female victims while a male teenager watched the road. Further interrogations will be done to nail Wichain, which will certainly involve the 2 victims ID’ing the suspect as the next step towards his prosecution.
