Thai-German actress Marie Broenner, 33 and her partner, prominent businessman Asmakorn Singhsikornkul, were released on bail after an early-morning confrontation with police at a Bangkok drink-driving checkpoint turned into a heated altercation.

 

The incident occurred at around 03:10 on 24 August, when officers from Wang Thonglang police station were operating an alcohol checkpoint on Pradit Manutham Road outside a car showroom. A green Porsche, driven by Ms Broenner with Mr Asmakorn in the passenger seat and two other women in the back, was stopped by police.

 

Officers signalled for the vehicle to pull over for a breathalyser test, but Ms Broenner initially refused to get out of the car. Mr Asmakorn then stepped out, claimed to know senior officers and began shouting angrily at police.

 

After several minutes, Ms Broenner eventually left the car but repeatedly declined to take the alcohol test despite police requests. Officers informed her that her actions constituted an offence of driving under the influence and placed her under arrest.

 

 

During the arrest, Mr Asmakorn allegedly became aggressive, verbally abused officers and attempted to obstruct the arrest. Witnesses reported that he challenged an officer to a fight, shouting expletives and demanding a “man-to-man” confrontation. Police restrained him at the scene.

 

The officer involved, Police Sergeant Udomsak Promchat, later filed a complaint against Mr Asmakorn, accusing him of insulting, obstructing and threatening police in the line of duty.

 

Both Ms Broenner and Mr Asmakorn were granted temporary release on bail and are scheduled to return to Wang Thonglang police station on 25 August to formally hear the charges before being taken to court.

Thailands finest "do you know who I am"/"I know your boss" brigade.

How dare you to stop a Porsche!

My single digit license plate cost more than your house!

 

I hope justice will be served.

Otherwise it's just another example why police is a helpless crowd.
