Just how 'FAIR' has Somyot been?

Perhaps the fact that he’s worth nearly Bt400 million (it’s interesting how he has managed to amass such wealth on a police salary) will make him more appealing to the people who vote for the Thai FA’s next head honcho. 

However, he’s leaving behind an oil slick a mile long from his previous job: was he “fair” in allowing two Burmese boys to apparently become scapegoats for a double murder on Koh Tao? Those two innocents have been in jail for 14 months and could face the death penalty. In the Koh Tao case, Somyot might be allowing brutal murderers to roam free on the island, grinning all the while, knowing they’re untouchable.
