EyesWideOpen Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) In a real police department, if a policeman commits a crime he is charged and put in jail. If your police department is nothing more than a thinly veiled mafia in nice uniforms like Thailand, then punishment in fact consists of having to step away from the feeding trough, AKA inactive post. But I guess with only a 30 day vacation from the trough, that should not really jeopardize the monthly payments on the Mercedes Benz, and the mia noi will have to lean out her lifestyle for the month.....lol...

Thai at Heart Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I see they were refused bail. Obviously murdering someone is less of a danger to society than running a gambling den. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seajae Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 try to see things positive. and its just gambling dens. what you want. the death penalty for them? they should be removed from the police force loose their pensions and be jailed just like every other criminal but seeing they are the ptp's private army they will get off.

notmyself Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Note that the gambling equipment is not destroyed on site (after collecting forensic evidence) but carefully dismantled and taken away by a private company.Collected by the rental company no doubt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZhouZhou Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 From the original story : "None of them was allowed to be released on bail." So let me get this straight. In Thailand if you kill someone like that actor did, or if you torture a young Burmese girl, you simply post bail and walk away. But god forbid, if you are caught gambling at a underground casino and make the local police look bad, now no bail for you... too funny for words.. bail or not is not up to the police to decide. you are comparing apples with oranges here.

Turning a blind eye to a criminal operation (& probably profiting from it). Unfortunately the corrupt BIB are off to an inactive post but the poor punters are locked up.

We have had plenty of previous instances of the BIB being involved (even running) illegal gambling joints. Anyone who has been around for a while here knows that they are the most corrupt (jointly with PTP) organisation in the country. You need to open both your eyes & your mind. Read Post No: 13.

kimamey Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) And effectively the five senior police get a 30 day vacation. It does say this is whilst there's an investigation. If they're found to be guilty then they shouldn't just be moved to an inactive post but probably sacked/ Of course whether that will happen is another matter but let's hope. I just hope some idiot doesn't come along and claim it's not gambling but some ancient Chinese custom. Edited March 25, 2013 by kimamey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death penalty no, Loosing there job and a prison sentence might be in order, Problem is thailand does,nt really have a police force. Oh it has one, but it is wholly corrupt, incompetent and dare I say it... Criminal. Thai culture and society created this monster, it was no accident. It thrives under the mai bpen rai culture of ignorance, a lack of responsibilty, morals and ethics and gets rich off the greed and malfeasance of the ordinary citizen. There is no investigative policing here; just the usual culture of ham fisted, incompetent bullying that preys on the weak and emboldens the cretins in positions of power. Any person who gives two jots about this country or its people should be sickened and embarrassed by the police here. Farang Talk , i could not have put it any better well done.

Hey maybe there is a ZZ team !!! Could be part of the new tourism campaign, where the government assembles a team of Thai people in room. Then they scour TV for any post that makes fun of Thailand or casts it in a bad light. Then they launch into full attack mode on the poster that would dare question anything Thailand does. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
