| (I’ve got Drummond on the run says Drew Noyes) |
Thailand’s seemingly greatest English language newspaper the Pattaya Times which boasts a readership of 500,000 reading a print run of 5000 has broken with the news that Andrew Drummond, correspondent of the London Evening Standard, and head honcho here appears to be a fugitive from justice and the paper’s boss.
The Pattaya Times exclusive comes right on the heels of a call to the moderator of the subzerosiam internet forum an excited American Drew Noyes – founder and in affect controller of the Pattaya Times that he had got Drummond on the run…and that Drummond did not have enough to pay 50,000 baht bail on a libel charge.
This site has consistently exposed Noyes for his lies and frauds.
But he was first exposed by the Wilmington Morning Star North Carolina before arriving in Thailand, he claims, by Royal Proclamation.
Noyes is suing Drummond for suggesting he might be going to jail – and for allegedly claiming that his wife gave blow jobs to foreigners.
Noyes, who awaits the verdict on February 15 of a libel case brought against him by a seasonal children’s Father Christmas, whom he accused of being a drugs trafficker, goes to trial on February 4th on a charge of extortion.
Contacted by phone Drummond -in hiding at his home in Bangkok supervising the re-roofing of his salas – said:

“I’m shocked. Deeply shocked. How could these cases go on without me? I have yet to receive any summonses.
“Drew must have given the court the same fictitious address that he picked off a public forum. I should have guessed though – he has done this before.
“I have not written that his wife gives blow jobs for foreigners. I cannot find this remark anywhere.
“Why does he not sue me for something I have have actually written about him?

“But when I went to court and asked Noyes where the b****y case was he said: ‘I am going to hit you for writing that my wife gives blow jobs to foreigners’
 |
| Mangus Evans, who wrote to Noyes complaining about Drummond is now AD’s number one fan |
“His henchman then assaulted me with his stomach (I’m not joking here) and said: ‘After this – it’s just you and me’. I do not think he was being romantic.
“I am not worried about Noyes though. He’s hopeless under cross examination. I will remain in hiding until January 28th and then I will have a whole day in court with Noyes.
“I just need to tell the court how Noyes mistranslates my stories. That usually seems to work.
“I am going on a diet with Mangus Evans, the Tartan Pimpernel, who is hiding in my attic. As Noyes will be in court now until early next century, it’s going to be a bloating experience.
“Er anybody got 50,000 baht!”
Footnote:Andrew Drummond: The article in the Pattaya Times is a glorious embellishment on reality. The judge has decided on the assumed fact that I had received the summons which I have not. That will be stated at the next hearing.
The evidence by Noyes will be challenged and he will asked to return to the witness box. No order demanding bail of 50,000 baht has been made.

Noyes is seeking outside lawyers to assist in his defence of extortion charges. This may worry clients of his PAPPA law company, and One-Stop-Legal-Advice-Center.
He does however want to people to believe he is at last on a winning streak while his newspaper is on the verge of collapse.
This is an email he sent to ‘friends’
cour to stand charges for defamation.
out and blast these links to your many contacts?
He also sent this to the forum master at subzersosiam:
“Now
Drummond is in CRIMINAL COURT on numerous charges brought by three
Plaintiffs. Drummond may also be CRIMINALLY Charged for as many as 67 different
false and defamatory statements on his blog in violation of the Thailand Computer
Crimes Act of 2007. “
Sixty seven cases? Sounds like the real circulation of the Pattaya Times.

| How Drew Noyes reported that earlier that Andrew Drummond was under police investigation. He had to with draw the story on the net after Police Major General Supisarn stated the interview was totally made up |
"British journo has had a gutful".
Frankly, the true story here is just how utterly dysfunctional the Thai judicial system is when it permits an idiot such as Noyes to milk the system ad nauseam.
But then when one observes the absurdity of the in fighting among opposing factions jostling for position at the feeding trough and the degree of their faux outrage when another gains a slight advantage it's hardly surprising the next move is to file a spurious complaint with whatever judge might be around, via the appropriate police division of course.
Ghastly place, ghastly people and dreadful climate but apart from that it's sort of ok (ish).I always think on my trips to Pattaya how appropriate the prevailing odour is one of barely filtered shite and piss mixed with som tam and diesel fumes. Eau de Nil a la Pattaya is the fragrance I believe it's now called and I suspect that moron Noyes splashes it all over.
BRILLIANT! BEST LAUGH I'VE HAD FOR AGES – THANKS GARRY!!!
Magnus picture should have read read " should be in jail, since long for long" If that ain't the truth. Drew can try and wiggle, but the net is closing as sure as day follows night 🙂
I'll be following the accounts of the trial of DN on you blog given that it is likely the only truthful source of news on it. I can't see how DN can get out of this… And if he gets put in the slammer how will his wife support herself?
I doubt the noise is short of a few bob
I agree, Gerry, it's dysfunctional in the western sense. But Thais give greater prominence to presentation over substance, the concept of no conflict, and the perception that people's position in the hierarchy is all important. Normally, that puts farangs at the bottom of the heap unless money is involved.
So Noyes is still going ahead with his plan to show the Pattaya Courts that Niels Colov has been to jail? Weird!
