Pol Gen Chakthip leads police in arresting Sek Loso

By Thai PBS

 

 

The national police chief Pol Gen Chakthip Chaijinda led a team of elite Arintharat police force in arresting rock star Seksan Sukpimai or Sek Loso from his house in Bang Khen district on Sunday evening after he defied police repeated police requests for him to voluntarily turn himself in.

 

A team of police from Kanna Yao police station, led by Pol Col Singh Singdet, was despatched to Sek’s house in Nanthawan housing estate on Sukhapibaan 5 road in Bang Khen to make the arrest after the Nakhon Si Thammarat issued a warrant for his arrest on charges of carrying a gun in public and firing the gun in public in Nakhon Si Thammarat on Friday night.

 

Police laid siege to his house after the rocker refused to open the door of his house and refused to surrender to acknowledge the charges. He reportedly locked himself on the second floor room of his house.

Rock on Sek! 

[ezzra]

A rocker with rocks in his head, good musician who's most of the time

thrives on controversy for nothing...

[leeneeds]

 Sek Loso or is that 

sick Loso?

 

 

[Samui Bodoh]

Leaving aside any comment on gun possession...

 

He has a cool name!

[Thaiwrath]

This might set a good precedent for the B.I.B.

Instead asking politely for people to come in for a chat, when they have a warrant issued against them, go and actually arrest them !

It just might work.

Regardless of his name, he is one sad individual. Arrogant, entitled, bully, wife beater, cheater, deserter, junkie - now there are more suitable names. Hardly a role model.

Pol General arrests Rock Star. Now that is service, the best I can get is a dirty look from a police corporal

[Somtamnication]

Wow. Police doing their job. Finally!

[mok199]

typicle thai male...plays guitar, runs from responsibilty....and does both poorly

 

[Sir Dude]

He should be tossed into jail...period. That would wipe that smug grin off his face and give him a good-hiding at the same time. PoS. 

[mikebell]

Police arrest Hi-so Lo-so is a staggering turn of events.

Maybe, he came to our town for a concert, he's a bit of a god up country, hundreds  went.

...cut off his hair shave off all his facial hair... shave his arse and make him walk backward down main street.

Why the team of commandos, was this guy the Thai equivalent of Rambo.. 

[klauskunkel]

good musician, but...

basically the poster child for what's wrong with many Thai males: immature, idiotic, irresponsible, full of himself, and he also beats his wife/girl friend.

He's already a jackass (apparently), so given the gun related charge involved, and possibility he's high on Yaba, they were right to go in heavy, secure the area, and see how it goes. 

 

He looks very calm, almost amused, in the photos.  Probably just smoking weed.  Arresting stoners typically not a problem.  Even the regular BiB could have handled this.  Stand outside 7-11 and wait for him to show up for Mountain Dew, Doritos and Snickers bars.  LOL!

How racist, and totally uncalled for.

[saminoz]

Absolutely shameless and unnecessary piece of self promotion by the Police Commander.

These <deleted> will do anything for a photo op!

Are you saying it's only Thai men that have these characteristics?

There are always people here who think they are superior to the Thais and need to put them down to feel better themselves.

 

I just think I am superior to everyone else  (just joking for those who did not catch the emoticons)

[Sealbash]

Wow. Police doing their job. Finally!

Yes, the prisons have been empty until now.

Just imagine this in a country where the police are accountable for their actions.

I totally agree. The sad thing is that it probably only happened this time because a police General saw a great opportunity for a New Years photo op.

I wouldn't say typical, but certainly there are many like him, full of themselves- and time they were taken down a peg or two. 

[bheard]

They have to send the national police chief to arrest Mr Important? No one else can do it? Does that mean all his subordinates are incapable of arresting one man? Doesn't the national police chief have more important things to do than arrest people?
