She also claimed Mr. Seksan beat her time to time.The image itself became viral on the online community, where individuals doctored the image into more innocent-looking action like drinking orange juice or blowing air into balloons.Sek Loso eventually apologized to the public and agreed to undergo a period of rehab. He was not charged with any crime; the police said drug addicts get automatic amnesty from prosecution if they come forward and agree to be rehabilitated. Mr. Seksan completed his rehab session in 2011.Today, Mr. Seksan met with Pol.Gen. Adul Saengsingkaew, chief of the Royal Thai Police, and told him that all the history of drugs use is far behind him.

greg71 Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Id be wary as he still dabbles, his newish drummer has a huge meth problem and was kicked from his previous band for not wanting to quit.As this yaa bah crap takes only 3 day to clear a test here by the way, Id be testing him daily .

Popular Post Briggsy Posted June 25, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted June 25, 2013 Could you imagine such a story or photo from a Western rock star. What a gulf in culture this story demonstrates. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete66 Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 I hope he's quit for good. He's a great songwriter. Nothing creative about doing meth. Looks like his (ex)-wife "outing" him was the catalyst that forced him to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete66 Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 So how did the cops help him quit? will they help him to stop beating up woman as well? They helped him by telling him he'd have to spend "time inside" (and I don't mean with the Mrs) if he kept using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacovl46 Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 the police said drug addicts get automatic amnesty from prosecution if they come forward and agree to be rehabilitated. Never knew that The cops said that after they found out about the picture. They asked him to come in and make a statement and if he decides to get clean they won't press charges. And it totally makes sense, too. Why punish someone who's willing to get clean for wanting to get clean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm being released from celebrity rehab on July 3rd and my GF has just got some primo seats (NOT free) for Sek's return to the big mango. I hope he's as drug-free as I hope to be.

ginjag Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 (edited) the police said drug addicts get automatic amnesty from prosecution if they come forward and agree to be rehabilitated. Never knew that All the convicted druggies locked in Thai prisons, (that are burting at the seams) ---then how is it they all do not want to be REHABILITATED. Most of the offenders are rural villagers, not knowing when they are due to be released..... or is it money persons that can be rehabilitated ???? just wondering --as everyone would ask to be rehab.
