Our Crim Prof


Our Crim Prof

I think that Tatap is saved. We've managed to find help for him when we were in Bangkok, in the form of our criminal law professor. Don't believe us? Here's pictorial proof. What's more interesting is the man behind the camera. Apparently ZY asked the director of one of our nation's statutory boards to take this picture for us, because the man was conveniently talking to our professor. We rock.

Entrapment!

Temasek Poly confirms arrest of staff on sex charge

SINGAPORE : In a press statement Thursday, Temasek Polytechnic confirmed that a member of its staff, Mr Darwis Rianto Lim, had been arrested in Bangkok for alleged involvement in a sex-related offence.

The polytechnic said the Singaporean had been suspended from his duties with immediate effect.

"As the matter is in the hands of the Thai police, the polytechnic has no further comments," it said.

According to a report, Mr Lim, 31, was arrested for trying to buy sex with underage boys over the Internet.

He had allegedly posted notices on the Web offering $329 for sex with a boy aged between 12 and 16.

He was caught at a Bangkok hotel by undercover police officers, who posed as sex agents, after he was shown three boys and paid for a 16-year-old, the paper said. -TODAY

Bangkok very happening hur...

1,000-year sentences in 17-year court case

Now we know we cannot go and steal the royal orders and decorations. 10+ generations on and you'll still be in jail. So girls arh. Don't see pretty pretty then go and take... you're on your own...

-----------------------

BANGKOK, Apr 27 (TNA) – It has taken 17 years for the court to reach a verdict, and during that time eight of the original 16 defendants have passed away. 

But today the Bangkok Criminal Court finally found five men guilty of stealing royal orders and decorations, and handed down sentences of over 1,000 years each.

The case, which has been dragging on since 1988, involves the now-deceased deputy temple abbot and 15 other men accused of forging documents relating to temple donations in order to request royal decorations from the Ministry of Education, and of soliciting charitable donations for their own personal use.

Accused on 10 counts, the men faced prison sentences of over 1,000 years each, with one defendant facing a prison spell of 2,660 years. 

Thankfully for the defendants, eight of whom have already died since the case was first brought to the attention of the court 17 years ago, under the Thai law the maximum sentence that any will actually be made to serve is 50 years.

The profile of the case was raised by the fact that one of the defendants was assistant to the permanent secretary for education, whose roles was to verify the authenticity of documents relating to donations, and to determine whether the granting of royal orders was appropriate. 

Another defendant was a high-ranking official in the Prime Minister’s Office.

Since 1988, the defendants and accusers have been passing evidence back and forth to the court, and in the intervening years four of the attorneys and one of the judges working on the case have died. 

Over 100 witnesses have been interviewed, out of a total of 538 cited. (TNA)--E006

Revenge bombing in Bangkok feared

Police are on the lookout for a separatist who has arrived in Bangkok and may be preparing a car bomb in the capital on the first anniversary of the fatal crackdown on militants at Krue Se mosque in Pattani province on May 7th last year, a police source said.

A reliable source at the Metropolitan Police Bureau said yesterday that deputy Bangkok police chief Pol Maj-Gen Krisada Pankongchuen had a meeting with senior investigators from all sub-divisions of Bangkok police over the weekend and discussed the arrival of the suspected separatist terrorist.

With information from the National Intelligence Agency, Pol Maj-Gen Krisada distributed the photograph and profile of the suspect to his subordinates and told them to be on the alert.

As the suspect had no criminal record, Bangkok police could not take any legal action against him but would be on the lookout for any unusual moves, the source said.

He said the suspect speaks the central Thai dialect fluently and may be preparing a car bomb attack, particularly to take revenge for the Krue Se bloodshed.

200 COWS TO BE PUT UP FOR AUCTION TO CATER TO STRONG PUBLIC DEMAND

(Taken off the comfort delgro website)

18 April 2005 –

Since the “Cows on the Moove” Campaign was launched to commemorate the set up of our new advertising arm, Moove Media, ComfortDelGro has been getting many requests from members of the public for the cows to be put up for sale. Some want them for display in their gardens, others want to put the cows in their bedrooms, and yet others want them as gifts for friends. Some of these requests have come from as far away as the United States.

In response to such strong feedback, ComfortDelGro has decided to put 200 of the cows up for auction on our website (www.comfortdelgro.com) to raise funds for our adopted charity, the Home Nursing Foundation. In so doing, we will be able to raise money for a good cause.

To bid for the cows, simply log onto our website and fill in a simple form. The top 200 bids, as at 12 noon, 30 April 2005, will walk away with the cows. Winners will be notified by email.

It is our hope that by putting the cows up for auction, members of the public will not resort to “helping” themselves to the cows. In the one week since launch, as many as 30 cows have gone “missing”. We have even heard of an incident where a motorist got out of his car, walked to the grass verge, uprooted a cow and spent 5 minutes trying to squeeze it into his car boot with no success. In the end, he had no choice but to leave the cow on the grass verge.

Once again, we would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their interest and warm reception to our cows. We promise more interesting advertising ideas will come from our new advertising arm, Moove Media.
