BAJ freelance Andrew Drummond has won his campaign to help clear a British businessman framed on drug charges in Thailand.
The businessman Kevin Quill, 43, from Halifax, Yorkshire, who was sentenced to six years in jail in 2000 was acquitted at Pattaya Appeal Court.
Quill was a director in a hotel and gay sex bar when he was framed.
Quill said outside the court: ” I am grateful to Andrew Drummond for his perseverance at some risk to himself”.
Andrew has also been campaigning on behalf of Iain Macdonald, 23, from Inverness who died in a fire above the sex club.
Andrew is appealing against two convictions for criminal libel brought by one of two Scotsmen in the commercial sex business in Thailand.
General Secretary Steve Turner said: “Andrew could have been jailed, deported, or bankrupted as a result of his determination to fight for justice for Quill and MacDonald. No praise is too high for what he has done.
