On 9th February 2023, the Department of Corrections hosted a ceremony to transfer a French inmate at Central Women Correctional Institution. On this occasion, Ms. Soraya Rittiaram, Director of the Institution, and Mr. Christophe Hemmings, Consul, Embassy of France, are the official representatives in surrendering the prisoner and returning her to serve her remaining sentence in France. This is the first transfer ceremony of 2023 and in accordance with the Treaty between the Kingdom of Thailand and the French Republic on the Transfer of Sentenced Persons and on Co-operation in the Enforcement of Penal Sentences. We trust that serving sentence in the homeland could facilitate family visits, increase the ability to life adjustment and better rehabilitation.
