Sources at the police station told the media that following the robbery when officers looked at CCTV they thought it might be a colleague.

Perfectly understandable, Jo Ferrai's position seems to be vacant and he wanted to deposit the requisite funds to be in with a shout of promotion.

More good news about the completely corrupt police force.

 

Wonderful bandits in brown.

I don't think they serve anyone they expect the people to serve them same as the rest of the government 

A Thai policeman, No, I don't believe you.

They also had to buy their own gear as well as a gun.  I bought my brother in-law, now ex BIL his duty weapon back in 2016, when the department bought weapons for then, that they had to pay for as well, he gave the gun to my ex-FIL.  I also bought him a vest to wear.  Tried to buy one from the states and have it shipped but they classified it as an illegal product, and a weapon of war.  It was a Type 2 Bullet proof vest for christs sake......weapon of war, go figure.  Many of the RTP guys work as security for gold shops themselves, so you have to wonder about this guy if the shop he robbed was one he had worked at doing security.

Anucha  Bumcrack?  Epic name.

Im sure you meant "establish" rather than "maintain".. hard to maintain something when you dont have it to start with

My wife  saw this on the news last night and straight away said he was a policeman ! I said I thought not there's no way to tell dressed in the pink panda suit  but she was right..she's often right ????

She's Thai , she's always right . 

Wow. Usually you get robbed by poilce without the mask and gun but just holding your car/ mb license 

Just another franchisee working the franchise. 

 

To protect and to serve. The RTP. Serving their bank accounts. 

Color me shocked! Yawn.

And they prosecute farang for saying the bad things.

 

Home grown again.

Plus a law enforcement officer.

 

Who do you trust in Thailand???

..........................the expression charming .

Teacher ' Can anyone put charming in a sentence ?  little boy ' my sister is charming .

Very good says teacher now can anyone put charming in a sentence twice ?

A little girl ' I have 2 sisters and they are both charming.'

Hmm says teacher , what about 3 times in a sentence.

little Tommy says ' My sister at breakfast today say she was pregnant , my dad said Charming charming tha's just bloody charming !

When the baby was born Tommy goes to school and announces the fact to the class. The teacher asks "did the baby come by stork?" "No." says Tommy "my sister said it came from a <deleted> on the Isle of Wight."

"deleted?" there lives a bird called a <deleted>. It is very similar to a cormorant and not that far removed from a carpet of some pile.

Pay police a decent salary BUT really throw the book at them when they break the law as they should be held to a higher standard. I think Singapore made this change.

Yes, I agree.

 

Good salaries, strict/elevated entrance requirements, good pension (that can be lost) and as you say, throw the book at them for any misdemeanours.

Since when did the RTP serve the people? This country has always been a police state and is now totally run by corrupt police and military. Sadly most people just shrug & say "what can we do" instead of taking to the streets in mass action.

They're too busy scamming each other.

That is the Big C we shop at sometimes.  Not a good PR time for the Thai Police lately like there ever was.  Think the whole police force needs an enema and start from scratch.  Police were called to our village once and they asked who would pay gas money for them to come.  

Honestly, who’s surprised by this?

Singapore certainly did. Lee Kuan Yew did a great job there. That was a tiny island with just a couple million people, though. Thailand is much larger, and the corruption here is probably also on a different scale.
