In a shocking case, a former naval officer has been arrested for running an illegal abortion clinic in Bangkok. The individual, identified as 55-year-old Lieutenant Thanaboon Kritkulthitthada, was caught by police at a clinic in Soi Phetchaburi 31, Makkasan, Ratchathewi District. The arrest came after local residents reported suspicious activities at the location.

 

Upon raiding the clinic, officers from the Metropolitan Police Investigation Unit discovered Thanaboon performing medical procedures on a patient. When asked to present his medical license, the suspect was unable to provide one. During questioning, Thanaboon confessed that he was not a licensed doctor but had been performing illegal abortions at the clinic.

 

 

Police Major General Teeradej Thamsutheer, commander of the Metropolitan Police Investigation Division, stated that Thanaboon admitted to all charges and had previously been arrested for conducting illegal abortions. Authorities are now investigating further to determine if there are any additional crimes related to this case.

 

Thanaboon will be charged with practicing medicine without a license under the Medical Profession Act of 1982. The police are also expanding their investigation to see if he was involved in other illegal activities.

 

The public is urged to report any suspicious activities related to illegal medical practices, as authorities are cracking down on such dangerous operations.

I wonder what they consider or what he actually to that promoted suspicious activity? If he had been doing this illegally for some time then he must have established some type of demeanor making himself to look and act the part of a doctor.
