Second and third rounds on the dossier pipeline, reviewed locally before commit. Retrieval - wayback_pass.py: retries every BLOCKED/DEAD/THIN/ERROR linked source through the Wayback Machine; blocks carry the snapshot date, archive URL and the live verdict. 143 slots retried: 93 fetched, 37 no snapshot, 12 script shells, 1 PDF. - fetch_sources.py: fetch_wayback() helper. - add_extra_sources.py: files staged extra_* finds (web search, not on the DB record) into the store with a provenance note. - Cases re-sourced by web search: 248 (Oslo: Document.no, Avisa Oslo, NRK; the linked Le Parisien piece is case 242 and is marked OFF-CASE), 258 Kharkiv, 260 Singapore, 358 Bangkok, 365 Las Vegas, 388 Verneuil-sur-Seine, 390 Zoersel, 430 Homestead. 341 of 364 cases now hold a fetched article; 11, 66 and 399 have no public text source (podcast, police video, direct victim report). Trimming - auto_trim.py: case-anchored furniture cut for UNTRIMMED blocks. Finds the body run that mentions the case, merges across subheadings and short furniture gaps, drops teasers, share bars, date/URL/caption lines and subscription pitches; refuses pages with no record term or almost no body. 302 blocks trimmed; 16 left on auto-trim-review.md (7 OFF-CASE suspects). Every cut is labelled AUTO-TRIMMED, UNREVIEWED in the dossier; the full extract stays in staging/. Decisions with anchors in trim-decisions-auto.json. - build_cases.py / verify_all.py: banners for auto-trimmed and archived blocks, staged-file check extended to Wayback blocks, flag legend under the record. Detention rule - README "Definitions": the DB field `kidnappings` is the DETENTION violence type (victim, guard, staff or relative held to force submission or execute the theft), distinct from the Kidnapping scenario (taken away and held). - detention-flag-review.md / detention-flag-corrections.json: 40 records reviewed with evidence; 30 set-to-1 proposals accepted by the owner on 2026-09-06 (listed in corrections-approved.md), 10 still open. - apply_detention_wording.py: "Violence Used" in the 70 reviewed summaries now names detention explicitly (62 of 70 labelled), supported by the summary's own text; idempotent; supersedes the batch scripts' wording. Worklist and docs - sofia-worklist.md: 248 decisions, detention rule item replacing the old "no abduction" item, fresh-search section for the textless cases. - README-START-HERE.md: progress notes, run commands, next steps. - Bug fixed in passing: Wayback blocks stored in-memory text with carriage returns; now stored as read back from disk. verify_all.py PASSES (2321 checks).

South Korean, 3 Thais Held in Bangkok Kidnapping Case
|
|
|
|
BANGKOK — Thai police have arrested a 46-year-old South Korean man accused of working with three Thai nationals to kidnap, assault and rob a Chinese man of more than $10,000 in cash and cryptocurrency earlier this month. The suspect, identified only as Lee, denies the charges and claims the victim owed him money.
|
|
|
|
Lee was taken into custody on Nov. 23 at a condominium on Sukhumvit Soi 24 in Bangkok, more than three weeks after the attack. Investigators from the Metropolitan Police Bureau and Bang Rak Police Station carried out the arrest.
|
|
|
|
The 35-year-old Chinese victim told police he was waiting for a taxi on Mahaseth Road on Nov. 1 when three men — two Thais and one South Korean — pulled up in a Toyota sedan, punched him and forced him into the vehicle. He said he was taken to an underground parking area at an unknown location, where the group beat him, stole 50,000 baht (about $1,540) from his bag and forced him to transfer 9,375 USDT in digital currency to an account linked to Lee.
|
|
|
|
The victim said he was released near Saensuk Soi beside Maleenont Tower on Rama IV Road after the transfers.
|
|
|
|
Police arrested the first suspect, Nattapong, 35, at Suvarnabhumi Airport on Nov. 10. A second suspect, Chanon, 24, was arrested on Nov. 12, followed by Tanaphat, 29, on Nov. 18. Lee was the last to be detained.
|
|
|
|
Investigators said Chanon and Tanaphat were recruited by Nattapong, who knew Lee. Police said the two younger Thai suspects did not receive any of the stolen money.
|
|
|
|
All four suspects face charges of robbery using a vehicle, illegal detention, and assault causing physical or mental harm.
