[webfact]

 

A Thai drug suspect accused Pathum Thani Provincial Police officers of illegally reducing her sentence, extorting 300,000 baht and raping her.

 

The Thai woman and her boyfriend sought help from the non-profit organisation Saimai Survive. The organisation accompanied them in filing a complaint at the Office of the Prime Minister at Government House yesterday, December 11.

 

Addressing the media, the couple recounted their ordeal, stating that they had been apprehended by seven officers from the Pathum Thani Provincial Police on charges of possessing ketamine. Subsequently, they were transported to the police station for interrogation, where they were individually questioned in separate rooms.

The woman stated that officers checked her mobile phone and banking application. She had about 360,000 baht in her bank account at that time. After finding the money, officers offered her the option of paying them 300,000 baht in exchange for her freedom.

He raped her then asked for another 30,000 baht. What a friggin filthy animal. 

Still, I guess nothing really surprises us anymore when it comes to Thailands finest.

Sounds real to me, that is how it usually works.

Thailands finest at work... 

[Scouse123]

Absolute pieces of filth, and these prats are supposedly upholding the law.

 

There is no law or justice in this country.

 

The Police are just gangsters in uniform and the courts no better, as they go along with it knowing it is wrong.

 

They are all morally bankrupt.

She knew what would happen.

The mafia here I mean the police here are so corrupt, and they do it in the wide open. Nobody cares there’s no accountability TIT.

What's funny is they openly sell ketamine on the beach in Jomtien alongside the road. There are multiple cars and motorbikes there with people selling it. The police really need to do a better job of policing the beach in the late night and early morning hours. All these kids are high as a kite on drugs, driving their motorbikes at unsafe speeds and causing a hazard by double and triple parking on the road.
