Murder at Myang Phraw.

It might be possible that the subdistrict headman would be forced by the police to be a false witness. | Punch card

Seduction case from M.Fang.

| April 3, 1969. Sompol suggested that the focus of this case was in three parts: 1) The judge believed that the victim voluntarily entered prostitution and the parents knew that their daughter was willing to do so; 2) The court believed the reason Mrs. Cham and Mr. Sao claimed was the reason that the defendant had entered into litigation; 3) the judge believed that that reason that the husband of Kham Mun, employed as a taxi driver, took her from the Fang district to Chiang Mai was to get passengers as usual. And for Kham Mun to travel to Bangkok to buy auto parts was also normal. | Punch card
