Popular Post rooster59 Posted February 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 15, 2020 European with Zimmer frame arrested by Chonburi police on overstay Image: Naew Na Chonburi immigration officers have proudly posed for photos next to a Belgium man just arrested on overstay. The officers found the Belgian man, 57, walking with his Zimmer frame behind the Burapha hospital in the Bang Saen area on Thursday. They checked him out and found he is on 85 days of overstay. Naew Na reported that Chonburi immigration chief Pol Col Naren Khreuangsanuk had sent in his men to keep Thailand safe and inspire confidence among Thais and foreign tourists. It was all part of IB chief Lt-Gen Sompong Chingduang's strategy to rid Thailand of law breaking foreigners. Naew Na urged the public to keep calling 1178 to report infractions.

Maybe you can find some foreign overstayers in wheelchairs or with even more crippling diseases and take their pictures for all to see. It will really make us public feel safe. 42 1 3 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their PR dept. needs a serious overhaul.

Popular Post geriatrickid Posted February 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 15, 2020 wow. This is pathetic. I am not one to have sympathy for overstayers, but c'mon. There are better uses for manpower and resources. They could have just visited the chap and told him to go home. It's not like he can run away. I feel sorry for the guy now held up for ridicule. Thai immigration come off as bullies here. 15 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does that have to do with IMMIGRATION? So what if this guy had a walking aid- he was STILL 85 days overstay. A couple of days fairynough- 85 days is a deliberate breaking of the law- no sympathy for this sort of person who makes like difficult for those trying to live within the lines. 4 6 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I would have opted out of the photo shoot. The other 9 that took part in the arrest did opt out of the photo oP. Which reminds me of few weeks ago at the BAAC in Noen Maprang a fire alarm went off and before long we had about 10 cops....including the boss cocky on the scene with a solitary fireman. By this time everyone had been herded out of the bank by bank staff and a staffer put out the fire with an extinguisher. Never mind, the fireman, the cops and the bank bosses all got their photo op when the local reporter turned up. They didn't do a d@mn thing! I had to giggle when I saw what transpired.

Popular Post CMNightRider Posted February 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 15, 2020 You have got to be kidding me. I am not aware of any country in the world where immigration officers proudly stand for a photo shoot with their arrested elderly victim along with his walker. This practice should be an embarrassment to the Thai government but apparently they encourage it. ???? 11 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
