webfact Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Surachate surrenders, freed on bail after questioning Pol Gen Surachate Hakparn Deputy national police chief, Pol Gen Surachate Hakparn, reported to the enquiry officer at Taopoon police station on Tuesday afternoon, to acknowledge the money laundering charges filed against him. He was granted bail after about four hours of questioning. Pol Gen Surachate told reporters as he left the police station at about 8pm that he has denied all the charges and vows to fight the case in the court. He insisted that he is still regarded as innocent until he is found guilty by the court. The embattled senior police officer decided to surrender after the Criminal Court issued a warrant for his arrest yesterday, as he had ignored three summonses issued by the Taopoon police.

(regarding the "request for an arrest warrant") Sooo, - has the arrest warrant been issued or not? I suspect not! Anyway, last I heard was that "Big Joke" was "on a short holiday" in England! Hmmm!!!

Personally I've enjoyed his antics, heroics over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scouse123 Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 59 minutes ago, Doctor Tom said: And with equal respect to you Sir, that is not the criteria for a straight cop here. He made every effort to ensure that Immigration policy and law was being followed and tried to stamp out payments under the table. For that alone, he should be commended. And for that alone he is hated by many of his less straight colleagues. Yeah, Because that was a great photo opportunity to further his career. Why mess about with Immigration corruption when there is far more money to be earned in online gambling? When he gets up to nonsense, you allow him to play the victim and commend his previous ' deeds ' as though one cancels the other out. He tried to stamp out nothing, but none of them did, it's a pure deflection or somebody up the pole isn't getting their perceived share and you class this as an ' honest cop ' 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anchadian Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 (edited) Deputy National Police Chief Pol Gen Surachate Hakparn will not be suspended from police duty, for now, said Pol Gen Kittirat "Big Tai" Phanphet, acting national police chief. Pol Gen Surachate was moved to inactive duty at the PM's Office following instructions from Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin. This means that he has been suspended from the Deputy National Police Chief position, but not from police duty, and he is still receiving his full wage and welfare. Pol Gen Kittirat explained that there are procedures that need to be followed, and the national police HQ has yet to receive reports about the allegations against Pol Gen Surachate, as the investigative officers are still probing the accusations. Pol Gen Surachate was accused of money laundering in connection with alleged financial transactions from an illegal online gambling network that allegedly involved him and his subordinates. An arrest warrant has been issued for him after he failed to comply with three previous summoning warrants. He turned himself in after the Criminal Court approved the arrest warrant, and he was granted bail yesterday.

Dogmatix Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 No need to worry about Big Joke. His father was the police driver for Thaksin's father-in-law and Thaksin is now back in power and looking for a new police chief available to start in October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the face of it to someone like yourself, he undoubtedly does stack up quite well. However if you had family that are familiar with the under workings of the capital and you visited them fairly regular, you would see and hear not so white a picture.

He’s not stupid. ]There was a warrant out for his arrest by the court for failing to comply with previous orders and that is why he attended the police station for bail so no they don't ' leave the country ' because their egos don't allow it and they think they can bluff their way out, and on many occasions, they can. At the moment they are still gathering statements and information and deciding on further action because not only are there criminal charges involved, the situation is further complicated by the fact that he is a senior police officer, so that comes into play as well. It is not like a member of the public that just jumps bail and disappears. Edited April 3 by Scouse123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
