Fugitive police doctor’s wife receives prison amnesty
Wisala Chanbancha, the third wife of fugitive former Police General Hospital doctor Pol Colonel Supat Laohawattana, has been freed from jail as part of the amnesty granted to prisoners to mark His Majesty King Maha Vajiralongkorn’s accession to the throne.
She was among 427 inmates released from Phetchaburi Prison Thursday morning.
Wisala was sentenced in 2013 to three years and four months for the theft of the Toyota pick-up truck of missing local couple Samart Noomjui and Orasa Kerdsap, while Supat was given a five-year prison term in absentia. Wisala finally went to prison in March last year.
