On 28 and the judgment comes down from the Court of First Instance sentencing them to a lengthy prison term 2017, Thailand Bail’s lawyers got the result we have been fighting for during the last 16 months – a not guilty verdict for a huge 394,200 ya-ba pill drug case in the Bangkok Criminal Court. This is a landmark decision, since the death penalty was an option for the judges in this case. There were 8 defendants, and less than half of them had their cases dismissed, and this included our client. The other 5 defendants got the death penalty, reduced to life in prison. The so-called “Bangkok Hilton” is usually associated with the Bang Kwang Prison in Nonthaburi has been defending clients in drug cases for many years, and have won a large percentage of the drug cases we take on. Bail was denied for our client, since the amount of drugs was so high, so it was not easy to complete our defense. if a defendant with a major drug case is housed in the Bam Bat, after 16 months of work, we got the positive result we fought for. Our clients are extremely happy, as are we. Thailand Bail wins almost all of the cases we take on, but this positive result was special, since it involved a huge amount of drugs.

Accordingly, we selected it to be highlighted as a success story on the Thailand Bail website. You can read more about it here: http://www.thailandbail.com/success-story-8-death-penalty-drug-case/
