Lawyers want DNA tested by UK police

NHRC sending a team to investigate crime scene as suspects retract confession

THE MYANMAR lawyers of the two men charged with the Koh Tao murders of two British tourists have asked Thailand's National Human Rights Commission and the Myanmar Embassy in the Kingdom to push for British police to conduct independent DNA tests in the case, as they believe their clients are innocent.

Myanmar nationals Zaw Rin and Win have retracted their earlier confessions to police. Their lawyers are confident the charges against the two men will be dropped.

The NHRC, meanwhile, is sending a team to examine the crime scene.

The latest twist in the murder case came after Myanmar President Thein Sein asked visiting Prime Minister General Prayut Chan-o-cha on Friday to ensure a "clean and fair" investigation.

On social media sites, many users refused to accept the result of the police investigation and raised the possibility that the two Myanmar nationals may be scapegoats in the murders of David Miller, 24, and Hannah Witheridge, 23. Their bodies were found on the island on September 15.

Police chief General Somyot Pumpanmuang has insisted many times that police did not frame the accused.

The NHRC is seeking to have forensic experts dispatched to Koh Tao to examine the case in detail.

Pol Maj-General Pavin Pongsirisin, the head of the investigation, said yesterday that he was confident everything was fair and police had submitted all the papers relating to the investigation to the Office of the Attorney-General.

In a related development, British Ambassador to Thailand Mark Kent urged Thai social media users not to spread disturbing photos relating to the case or passport photos and details of the victims, saying their families had already suffered a lot. He made the request via his Thai-language blog on Friday. He also urged the Thai mainstream mass media not to prejudge the accused and let the justice process run its course.

Kent said the Thai media, including the social media, should be "responsible as well as free".

Regional Public Prosecution 8 deputy director-general Thawatchai Siangjaew said he had not been informed yet about the police's additional interrogation of the two suspects in prison while a deputy chief of Provincial Police Region 8 denied the suspects had retracted their confession. Thawatchai said prosecutors would consider for indictment mainly the evidence in the case, including CCTTV footage from the crime scene and witness testimonies. The retraction of confession by suspects would not influence their decision to indict them, he added.

Prosecutors are still waiting for the police investigators' submission of the amended case report. He said once the report is submitted, the prosecutors should be able to make a decision within seven days.

Meanwhile, tourists continue to flock to Koh Tao under the watchful eye of tourist police and volunteers. The number of tourists is not high but it is still the low season, with strong ocean currents and monsoon rains.

Book links Iskander, Altaf to 1995 Purulia arms drop

'The Night It Rained Guns', a book by India's top investigative journalist Chandan Nandy, says the AN-26 aircraft, that dropped a huge quantity of weapons over West Bengal's Purulia district on Dec 17, 1995, had repeatedly tried to land at Dhaka.

That was after it flew out of Karachi in Pakistan and Varanasi in India, using the cover of carrying a legitimate consignment for the Bangladesh Army.

The AN-26 with the huge consignment had started from Bourgas in Bulgaria and stopped at Ispahan in Iran before touching Karachi and Varanasi.

The book by Nandy says that the aircraft was used by Danish freebooter Jan Christien Neilsen alias Kim Davy to transport the weapons from Bulgaria with a fake End-user certificate (EUC) issued against the Bangladesh Army.

Nandy says Nielsen possibly worked for CIA and both Dhaka and Rangoon figured in his original flight plan.

He finally did not get permission to land in either airport.

The EUC no - 4021/1/AA/ARMY/ASL (P) 2 dated Nov 9, 1995 was signed by Major General Subed Ali Bhuiyan.

Nandy's book says British gunrunner Peter Bleach, who worked with Kim Davy on this arms drop, had procured this fake EUC through one Syed Taslim Hussain of M/s Riverland Agency, that was operating out of Kazi Nazrul Islam Avenue in Dhaka.

"Syed Tasleem Hussain’s ‘success in business was attributed to patronage of the then Bangladesh Prime Minister Begum Khaleda Zia, whose brother Syed Iskander (Sayeed Eskander) had a stake in Hussain’s company, Riverland Agencies," says the book published by Rupa.

Iskandar, a former army major and advisor to Khaleda, died of lung cancer in New York in Sept 23, 2012. He was elected MP from a Feni constituency in 2001.

Nandy, who is now a senior editor with The Times of India, says: "A subsequent secret letter (Nov 25, 1995) of the Bangladesh Directorate General Defence Purchase (DGDP), signed for the director general by a Major M Jasim Uddin, however, authorised M/s Border Technology and Innovations Ltd to ‘take all steps to conclude the subject contract, namely 214/719/19/Project/DGDP/Ord/P-4’29.

"The wooden boxes containing the arms and ammunition bore the seal (in stencilled capital letters) ‘COMMANDANT CAD RAJENDRAPUR
CANTT, BANGLADESH’.

On one of the wooden boxes was written in bold: ‘CASE NO. 34 OF 60, CONTRACT NO. 214/719/ PROJECT DGDP’.

BTI was run by Bleach's friends Peter Scott and Robin Campbell and had been drafted in by the British gunrunner to smoothly organise the arms procurement in Bulgaria.

Nandy says that Neilsen repeatedly tried to get permission to land at Dhaka but failed.

"Suspecting something fishy, the DGFI recommended that no landing permission be given to the AN-26," says the book.

"In fact, Nielsen’s Carol Air Services had approached the Civil Aviation Authority of Bangladesh on Nov 19, 1995, for landing permission, claiming that the aircraft would carry general cargo from Shaheen Airport Services for Air Parabat Ltd, Bangladesh.

Jan Christien Neilsen alias Kim Davy

"Responding to a query from the Bangladesh civil aviation authorities, Carol Air Services claimed that it sought landing permission so it could showcase a static demonstration of the AN-26 at Dhaka’s Zia International Airport.”

It named Bangladesh’s just-retired Air Force chief, Air Vice-Marshal Altaf Hossain Chowdhury, as a local reference.

Chowdhury who was air chief from 1991 to 1995 was later home minister in the 2001-06 government headed by Khaleda Zia. He was a part of the BNP chief’s advisory committee.

"In the event, a letter from the then Bangladesh Civil Aviation assistant director, Mohammad Habibullah, to Dhaka-based Air Parabat Ltd, associated with Syed Tasleem Hussein, said ‘no action can be taken’ on the landing permission request."

The Purulia arms drop created a furore in India and was seen as a huge breach of the country's air security architecture.

In modern life,there are a lot of competitions.Without hard work,nothing can be had.
Gone are the days of our past when we depended on bounties of God.

However, the world is a place to be share equally by all.Co-operation is the basic of
civilized. Everyone has a duty to honour the feeling and sight of others.

The development of morden life world has very little contributed to this basic of civilized.
There is a big gap between the haves and haves not.There are the people who live in nation
have everything and even enough to share but there are also people who despite work hardly
cannot be comfortable.

The rich and poor is increasing day by day and so-called God’s world has become absolutely
enjoyable for some and  inferno or a hell for others.
