มาตรา 131/1 — การตรวจพิสูจน์ทางวิทยาศาสตร์

คำแปลภาษาไทย

Where it is necessary to use scientific evidence to prove facts under Section 131, the inquiry official shall have the power to have any person, object, or document examined by scientific methods in cases of criminal offenses carrying a maximum penalty of imprisonment exceeding three years. If the examination under paragraph one requires the collection of samples of blood, tissue, skin, hair or body hair, saliva, urine, feces, secretions, genetic material, or components of the body from the accused, the injured person, or a person concerned, the responsible inquiry official shall have the power to have a physician or an expert carry out such examination. However, it must be done only so far as necessary and appropriate, using the method that causes the least pain possible, and it must not be dangerous to the body or health of that person; and the accused, the injured person, or the person concerned must give consent. If the accused or the injured person does not consent without reasonable cause, or if the accused or the injured person obstructs or prevents a person concerned from giving consent without reasonable cause, it shall be presumed at the outset that the facts are as the examination result would have shown, had the examination been carried out, to the detriment of the accused or the injured person, as the case may be. The expenses of the examination under this Section shall be paid from the budget in accordance with the regulations prescribed by the Royal Thai Police, the Ministry of Interior, the Ministry of Justice, or the Office of the Attorney General, as the case may be, with the approval of the Ministry of Finance.
