Popular Post Jonathan Fairfield Posted October 30, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2018 Six Mae Sot police officers suspended after two Chinese fugitives escape By The Nation File photo The Mae Sot police chief and five of his subordinates have been moved to inactive posts after two Chinese fugitives escaped from detention during a party at the police station. National police chief Pol General Jakthip Chaijinda signed an order on Tuesday to have second acting Mae Sot police station chief Pol Colonel Manas Sornpraphan and five other senior officers moved to inactive posts at the police headquarters in Bangkok. Police sources said the order came after two Chinese fugitives, who are wanted back home, escaped their detention cell on Friday night while police officers were enjoying a party hosted by a Chinese migrant in the district. The two fugitives were among the 12 Chinese people arrested on October 23 after Immigration Bureau acting chief Maj-General Surachate Hakpal ordered Mae Sot police to investigate allegations that Chinese migrants were providing wireless Internet access from Thailand to casinos on the Myanmar side. Police also seized 50 sets of wireless Internet streaming devices from the detainees. On Friday, the Mae Sot Court slapped a Bt3,000 fine on each of the 12 detainees and ordered them to be deported back to Myanmar. However, sources said two of the detainees, who have now escaped, were to be handed over to the Chinese authorities.

This would be serious if it wasn't so screamingly funny. You'd think that for a police force that's found its way into the public eye, lately, and for all the wrong reasons, they'd be doing every last thing possible to show their better side, but this bit of news just takes the entire biscuit. 9 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely these guys were already inactive to allow the fugitives to escape. 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would depend on how much was in the escape plan budget of the Chinese migrant who threw the party. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes indeed, especially as they (fugitives) were working for the gambling mafia in the casinos across the border. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
