These will probably get a more severe punishment than any of the culprits causing carnage on the roads.

That's what they have to time to check for instead of checking vehicle safety and drivers mental sanity.

wow .... major gambling syndicate busted here. 4 unfortunate guys killing time. 1340 baht confiscated.

 

I've seen Thai guys bet much much more on a single golf hole.

 

Yes, I suppose they broke some law, but what a waste of time for the cops involved. Phuket District Chief of Police, a Navy Commander and others !!

 

What the hell were they doing at this piss-ant nothing situation ?

 

You'd think these senior officers would have something .... anything .... better to do with their time. Nah, photo opportunity.

 

A junior cop with a message "pack it in now boys, you've been dobbed in" would've been sufficient.
