It is frightening to think where this country will be in 10 years time!!!

 

Thailand is a jungle to me where the strong prey on the weak on so many levels.

 

All this saving face/wai-ing,monetary bribes to make problems go away are running this country

into the ground.

 

Another example of women treated as commodities where infact the countries output would decline

dramatically if left up to the males....

In the UK impersonating a police office is a serious offence...

 

In Thailand it seems it is treated as a joke.

Police officer, two others linked to Pattaya extortion and rape

A police lance corporal in Chon Buri’s Nong Prue precinct and two civilians have surrendered to police and denied an accusation that they had abducted a 22-year-old woman from her Pattaya apartment and coerced her into having sex.

 

The suspects allegedly tried to extort money from the woman and two of them forced her to have sex with them in exchange for her release last Saturday.

 

Muang Pattaya Police Station superintendent Pol Colonel Apichai Krobphetch said on Monday that the lance corporal and two other suspects had been brought to police by the Nong Prue precinct superintendent.

 

The three men denied the accusation of extortion and rape but admitted to being the men filmed by the apartment’s CCTV footage.

Apichai said he would ask the victim to provide more information and identify the suspects before deciding what charges to file.

 

 

He said he had already requested that the policeman’s supervisor dismiss him from the civil service pending the investigation.

 

In a police complaint filed on Sunday, the Nakhon Phanom woman, whose name was withheld, claimed two men wearing clothing similar to police uniforms had raided her apartment in Soi Bongkot of southern Pattaya City area.

 

A male friend had gone to see her at the apartment, but he was followed by the three suspects, who said they were investigating suspected illegal activity.

 

The suspects then allegedly conducted a search for “illegal items” at the woman's room and demanded Bt30,000 “to clear the criminal case” involving unspecified charges.

 

The woman and her friend were then allegedly detained at a Pattaya motel where they were threatened and told to pay the money. The policeman left with the man, leaving the woman alone in the room with two men who claimed to be police volunteers.

 

After she gave them Bt2,700 in cash, the two suspects allegedly coerced her into having sex with each of them in exchange for her release.

Thankfully CCTV was found or this case would never have seen the light of day: police prosecuting police - it just doesn't happen.  The world awaits justice on this case.  Best case scenario - a public warning; a wai to the victim and 500 baht fine.

I think it's time the word Royal was removed from the Police force, never has a word been  so disrespected as much in this country. Same can be said for the "junta"

The only legalised crime syndicate is called....

[Bangkok Barry]

Amazing how many Thais have not yet woken up to the fact that they can now be caught out by CCTV - and that includes the boys in brown seeking 'donations'.

If the boyfriend corroborates....
Really sad state of affairs. I had been thinking a lot of the accusations were trumped up, until I had an IO try to extort 16,000 baht from me to make a visa application go smoothly.

In the UK you have a proper effective police force.  This is Thailand and it doesn't operate that way. The law comes way down the list after money, face and sex.

The Thai police have been rogues for years. Attempts to contain them have been negligible and are unlikely to pick impact anytime soon.
