No surprise that (for a fee no doubt) the Royal Thai Police would be happy to cover up a crime. Seems a shame that the hotel is not named in the article. One can but hope that in the follow up to this both the hotel owners and the police concerned will be charged but as no doubt the hotel owners will be 'connected' I am not holding my breath.

My Thai GF, or I'd say "friend" was staying with me in Patong 

 

She was driving a MB with my friend's 15yr old neice from Scotland

 

A drunk Thai guy hit them and the young girl died

 

 

The disgusting manner the Phuket police handled the case was well.....disgusting 

 

Passing around pics of the dead girl in front of us

Almost mocking us 

 

 

Then intimidating my GF to not testify

Giving out my address to the suspect and his family 

 

The police harrassed my GF so bad, she had to flee Phuket
