snoop1130 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 40 long-haired police officers face transfer Forty police officers have been ordered by the Royal Thai Police to immediately report themselves to Pol Lt-Gen Suraphol Phinitchob, commissioner attached to the RTP, for wearing wrong hair in violation of the police regulations. The order was issued by Pol Col Amnart Utaramart, a deputy commander attached to the police operations centre, on Sunday – one day after the Royal Thai Police instructed the police inspector-general and a special task force to conduct a random survey of policemen who defy the police regulation by wearing long hair. The random survey found 40 police officers with ranks from a lance corporal to lieutenant-colonel attached to the Metropolitan Bureau, Satun, Nakhon Si Thammarat and Phang-nga provincial police officers have defied the regulation.

sammieuk1 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Agree they need to get their hair out of their eyes and get on a first aid course and maybe give some basic help to critically injured people mowed down by useless drivers instead of watching and doing nothing.

bluesofa Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 "It was reported that the 40 defiant officers would be temporarily transferred to the police operations centre to assist work." It's one thing to have their hair too long, but how many of them have any medical training to work in an operations centre? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaltsc Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 (edited) "It was reported that the 40 defiant officers would be temporarily transferred to the police operations centre to assist work." Yep.... Long hair, shooting innocent civilians, major bribery or graft/, beating and raping women... When it comes to justice for crimes committed by the police and military , one punishment fits all. Edited February 6, 2018 by jaltsc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emster23 Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Did the 40 happen to be women cops? Long hair prevent them from doing their jobs? Maybe if men they wanted to look like Al Pacino as Serpico in that popular (still) sticker... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, if they wear the gear often enough it makes it impossible to identify the ones running a shakedown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klauskunkel Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 (edited) Is that a hair pin, or tie your hair in a knot RTP style sort of a thing? If it is, it will be copied, sold and used to commit fake police crimes. Edited February 6, 2018 by klauskunkel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
