Immigration officials inspect Pattaya police and immigration offices following numerous complaints

Pol. Maj. Gen. Pongpat Pongjaroen recently paid a visit to Pattaya police station to inspect prisoner holding facilities to see if they were up to standard before moving on to the Pattaya Immigration office on Soi 8.

The inspection was a result of alleged reports and complaints from a number of institutions that the Pattaya branch too slow in processing offenders and that a number of persons in detention for visa infringements had gone missing while being transferred.

Pol. Maj. Gen. Pongpat did not reveal his findings but instead reiterated the need for enforcement on searching and detaining foreign nationals illegally residing and working in the kingdom.

“These people are taking work away from Thai nationals and degrading the local economy. All Immigration officers must perform their duty in accordance with the correct procedures and investigate and detain foreigners illegally working in the region,” Pongpat said.
