Bangkok Court of Appeal rejects popular TV actor “Toy Toy” bail request

Actor Thanapat Chanakulpisan aka “Toy Toy” who accidentally killed his girlfriend while struggling over a knife has been denied bail. The appeals court yesterday approved the verdict of the Minburi District Court.

Thanapat, who appears on the Thai soap opera “It’s because of love, isn’t it?”, which also bears the title “Why RU”, has reportedly confessed to killing his girlfriend, Chatsaran Suwannakit, last Friday.

However, the discrepancies in the story continue to buzz around. Now Bangkok Post reports that Thanapat killed Chatsaran in a “blind rage”.

Previously, the Bangkok Post’s report on the murder contained several details that differed from other reports. For example, Bangkok Post originally did not state that it was Thanapat who killed Chatsaran and their report on where the knife was found also differed from The Nation Thailand’s report.

Thanapat’s bail request in Min Buri court was rejected yesterday on the grounds that the crime carries severe penalties and the suspect posed a flight risk.

After the initial bail request was rejected, Thanapat’s lawyer filed a petition with the Court of Appeal. However, the appeals court agreed with the Minburi court’s rejection, saying the rejection was “correct”.

Thanapat is currently awaiting further legal proceedings in Minburi Penal Prison. His first detention period lasts until August 18.
