A former crown prince of Nepal has been ordered to report to police again next month after being bailed to fight charges on possession of marijuana.

The Phuket court on Thursday agreed to Chueng Thale police's request to continue bail for Paras Shah instead of keeping him in detention, Thai Rath reports.

The former crown prince reported to police on Thursday as a condition after his bail was granted last month.

What would they have done differently if they knew?
I bet the girl he was with knew everything, but kept her mouth shut.
And all this over 3 lousy grams of pot?
Personal use, not for sale.
You got to be kidding me right?
Oh sorry I forgot this is Thailand.

"Mr Shah became heir to the throne in 2001 after his cousin, former crown prince Dipendra, killed nine members of his family .."

All that glitters is not gold. People of his ilk are common, or should we say, a common sight.

"We didn't know who he was when he was first arrested because he had a normal passport, nothing identifying him as a VIP,"

If only Thais were prone to gossip, they [the police] might have found out sooner.

How sad and how telling, that the police feel they have to make excuses for doing their job like this.

So now they know he has alot of money. The Thai scam is coming soon. Bring your wallet.
