Seven Prathum Thani Provincial Police officers and an alleged police spy turned themselves in at Pratunam Chulalongkorn Police Station in Bangkok on charges of extorting money and raping a female drug suspect.

 

A Thai woman and her boyfriend sought justice after accusing seven police officers in the central province of Prathum Thani of extorting 300,000 baht from them when they were arrested for drug possession. The officers allegedly gave them a lighter sentence in exchange for the money.

 

The woman also accused a police officer in the group of raping her and demanding another 30,000 baht. The rapist claimed that he had helped her negotiate with a senior police officer, so he should get something special in return. She had to comply with his request, fearing that her friend would be severely punished.

 

After the couple went public with the matter on December 11, seven accused police officers visited Pratuman Chulalongkorn Police Station on December 13 to acknowledge the accusations.

What a mess... and only 30,000 baht for rape? for starters, those guys should be jailed like for ever and the woman compensated for no less than much, much bigger amount than what she's asking now...

I best not comment on what I think of the Thai RTP ...  as it goes against community standards. 

 

enough said about Thais and the Police here.

I think you misunderstood. The police officer was demanding an extra 30,000 from her.

30,000 baht for rape?  I'll have two.

A morbid sense of humour, but yes, in some bars it will cost that much to spend the night with a woman...

I suggest you read the story again, she hadnt asked for compensation, she was told by the police officer that he wanted 30k more

Read the whole paragraph again.

"The rapist claimed that he had helped her negotiate with a senior police officer, so he should get something special in return."

Well, i just hope that the "something special" will be a life sentence and not to see day light again as a free man...

Not just a few rotten apples the whole orchard is cancerous 🤔

I wonder what evidence they have, besides their testimony? I think the couple can now expect a tougher sentence for embarrassing the police.

The 300,000 baht withdrawals from an ATM during the time they were in custody will take some explaining.

RTP scum.

Transfered to inactive duty, until forgotten about.

Not amusing in the slightest.

 

Rather sad but only to be expected from you.

You read this wrong... So your reply is not accurate.... The policeman asked for an additional 30,000 baht and some sex because he negotiated the deal for her to pay the 300,000 and have the charges dropped

The entire sector more like it. Even glyphosate couldn't kill that plague of weeds.

Keeping it clean.

If they were drug dealers maybe the paid in cash and no trace, lets hope they got it from the ATM,

Petch check your translations!, writing this drivel, it's not up to police, to sentence anyone. A lighter Charge yes NOT SENTANCING that is up to the courts surely. I could be wrong about Thai law as I'm just a mere Falang.

What is a police spy? I never heard of that position in the police force before.

  Amazing Thailand indeed.

In this case an undercover extortionist and rapist.

Hint, don't yell with capitals unless you can spell. It just makes you look more dim than you probably are.

All done via ATM according to the original news, so should be traceable.

Normally you could probably think informant, but this doesn't add up. Sounds like someone the police have used to do the dirty deeds for whatever twisted reasons they may have had.

Right there.

Will those dealing with the accused police officers be squeaky clean themselves?  That's the problem with rotten apples, you often find that the whole sackful is much the same. I'd suggest that sorting out the corruption and wrong doing in some areas of authority (picking my words carefully) is an impossible task.

 

People who live in glass houses............and all that.
