Gaybutton Posted December 19, 2009 Posted December 19, 2009 I know many of you have been following Kevin Quill's plight and are interested in the latest information. Today I received an Email from someone who is in a position to know. The following is the significant part of the E-mail: _____ Wednesday Kevin Quill was granted by the Thai justice system his request for repatriation to England to serve out the remainder of his sentence in a prison there under the prisoner exchange agreement that Thailand has with the UK, the USA, and many other countries. It is anticipated that he will be deported back to England under prison police escort within about 5 to 6 weeks. It is taking a bit longer to process him owing to the holiday season. When he arrives in England he will be processed and assessed by the prison service there and, if luck is with him, be sent to an open prison for the next 2 years. He has already spent 2 years of his 6 year jail sentence here in Thailand and will have to do at least a further 2 years in England to comply with his release conditions from the Thai justice system.

Today I received an Email from someone who is in a position to know. The following is the significant part of the E-mail: //////////////////// Would Mr Quill wish a visitor? Is he still at Klong Prem Prison? I MIGHT --- repet, MIGHT be going into Bangkwang Central Prison to visit a prisoner, say, early in the new year. If anyone in this forum, has experience of doing prison visits in Thailand, and can inform me of regulations and procedures, I'd much appreciate a PM. Thank you. Quote
Guest Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 I am happy he got this approved. Kevin was always kind to me and gave me great advice when I first moved to Thailand. I hope this transfer happens fast and he is back home with his family soon! Quote
Guest globalwanderer Posted December 29, 2009 Posted December 29, 2009 I truly hope Kevin gets back to the UK as soon as possible. He was to me always to me the most upstanding citizen and does not deserve to be where he is today. Quote
