More investigative work needed in Koh Tao
Play
The Royal Thai Police seem to be getting nowhere in solving the murders of two British tourists on Koh Tao that happened two weeks ago - to the point that more and more chances are likely that the true culprits might escape scot-free.
The DNA tests on suspects should not be looked at as the only way to determine who the murderers are. Suspects whose DNA samples do not match those from the victims’ bodies should not be crossed out.
It’s possible people who committed the murders did not commit the rape; but wanted to cover up the trails that could lead to the capture of the rapists, and hence the murderers.
Therefore, for police to rely on the DNA tests only is irrelevant and shows lack of
efficiency.
More investigative legwork is needed.
