From Death Penalty to 2 Years: An Impressive Legal Victory

At Thailand Bail, we’re proud to share one of our most remarkable successes: reducing a potential death penalty sentence for our client to just two years in prison. This achievement is particularly outstanding given the complexity of the case, which involved international suspects and victims from five different countries, and the high media attention it received.

Our client, Zwe Lin Pyae, was the primary defendant in the widely publicized murder case of Chu Chiang Shen. This case was followed closely by media outlets worldwide, and many similar cases ended with severe sentences such as life in prison or even the death penalty. That’s what makes this result so exceptional—our client, facing the most serious charges, walked away with a significantly reduced sentence.

How Did We Do It?

Thailand Bail Wins in Court!

Thailand Bail recently won a very important criminal case involving a foreign defendant in the Udon Thani Provincial Court in Udon Thani, Thailand, charged with attempted murder of two Thai women. This case was very challenging for our lawyers and interpreters, since there were 4 witnesses against our client, swearing to the court that he had tried to kill these two Thai women. After months of dedicated preparation, we executed the plan in court during the trial, resulting in a no-prison-time verdict for our client, who only had to pay a small fine as a penalty for this crime that could have landed him in prison for 50 years. We received recognition for this from the defendant’s embassy in Bangkok for our relentless work to get a positive judgment in this case.
