Popular Post webfact Posted November 18, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 18, 2020 Seven policemen tested for narcotics after drugs allegedly found in van By THE NATION Seven policemen stationed at Kiak Kai Intersection were sent for a narcotics test after images of drugs and related equipment found in a police van went viral on social media. On Tuesday, Move Forward MP Rangsiman Rome claimed on his Facebook page and Twitter account to have found drugs and drugs-taking tools in the van parked in an area where pro-democracy protests were taking place. The photos were shared thousands of times. In response, police officers who used the van were reportedly ordered to undergo a narcotics test. However, all seven test results at Vajira Hospital came back negative. The police said several belongings were stolen from the van, including an iPhone, a watch, a flashlight, headphones, a loudspeaker and a radio.

Which makes perfect sense as everyone knows drug possession makes for a better arrest charge than 'protesting'. So the police were just following normal operating procedures and doing their job.

spidermike007 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Something smells very fishy here. The drugs were either intended to consume, to sell, or to plant as evidence. In regards to the tests, has anyone heard of any active police ever being charged with a crime, let alone gone to prison? Ever? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeNata Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 The van was transporting 12 policemen. After the scandal the General asked “who of you didn’t used drugs lately? Ok, you can be tested” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes there was a Policeman who lived near to me ,him and another Policeman were arrested for transporting drugs down from Mae Sai,for their boss,they got 25 years,and they did not grass up the boss,as they knew they would most likely end up dead.but like you say not many..... regards worgeordie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andycoops Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 It's a well known tactic here to plant drugs on people when searching them. Which is why you should always empty your own pockets, bag etc and not let the fuzz do it themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
