59 nabbed for violating curfew in Chiang Mai

By The Nation

 

 

The authorities arrested 59 people at different checkpoints in Chiang Mai on Sunday (April 5) for violating the 10pm to 4am curfew order.

 

Pol Maj-General Pichet Chiranantasin, chief of Chiang Mai Police Station, said on Monday that police had set up checkpoints across the province to monitor the implementation of the curfew and arrest violators.

 

“Nine people were arrested by the Chiang Mai Police Station, the highest number, followed by eight each at Mae Ping and Phu Ping Ratchaniwet police stations,” he said, adding that the rest were nabbed at other corners of the province.

 

“Each and every violator will face charges of violating curfew orders without exception.”

 

He added that most of the violators claimed they were returning home after having drinks and had lost track of time.

 

“Every checkpoint has been ordered to file charges against violators without any exception and check their alcohol levels,” he added.

Always a few that have to try to evade the regulations.

Hope they enjoy a few baht less in their pockets with a 15 day stay somewhere squalid!

Good, they now see they are not so hi-so more  light in the  pocket.

40.000 ridiculous, but 1500 and a couple of weeks on rice soup and then curfew at  home, good results, now get this on national  tv that will keep them in.

In the present situation Im not sure jailing people is the right thing to be doing, you could end up getting raped and end up HIV

It's from Chiang Mai News in English, Facebook page. So I assume she wouldn't have seen it.
