@Discussion 4 No, the moral of the story is don't use your credit or debit cards if you are wanted for a serious crime. Instead of deactivating them, law enforcement can use them to pinpoint someone's location in real time.

'Picking up a murder suspect in a sea of yellow is solid proof to me that expertise among our detectives is solid and sound.'

I guess the moral of this story is "greed kills". An important message for everyone. Congratulations to the Thai Police.

That's the problem with those ATM's. You can't take out enough money in one day to pay a simple bribe. What a shame. But that's OK maybe he got enough money out to pay his own bail. I'll bet he wishes he was a Thai MP right about now.

Totally agree. Good police work! That shows, if they want to catch a suspect, they have the ability to do so. The question is, why are some caught and some a forgotten?

horrific crime....but in all honesty...Thai police is often targeted as incompetent and corrupt.
Picking up a murder suspect in a sea of yellow is solid proof to me that expertise among our detectives is solid and sound.
Identified - sought and caught.

Good job - Well done Royal Thai Police force !!
