Rumblecat Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Listen guy's.I am done. You have made me sad. I know I sound like I am boasting.I know I sound rude. It come's with my old background. But guy's, surely, I have done a public service. I have taken criminals who deal in drugs off the street's. I have shown bad policeman that their tactic's do not always work. I have, I modestly say done my best for people and have been recognised and awarded fort this. And,yet, all I get accused of is being a liar and some very rude comment's. C'mon, you provided a mis-spelt link which I sort of think you knew wouldn't work- and even when the spelling is corrected it still doesn't work- and then the actual defunct news story you were linking turns out to have had nothing to do with you what you've been talking about. Possible you just wrote down the wrong link. Spelt it wrong. It happens. But surely you can see why people would be sceptical when someone claims they slapped a senior police officer and force fed them their own mobile phone while watching police did nothing but smirk. I don't think it's unreasonable when you've claimed it was on TV and the national news that people are interested in a link. I mean, I'd love to read that story. Not sure why it's so hard for you just to provide a link to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirchai Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 No privacy at all i had to show my wiener to them while peeing. Its not easy to pee when 2 ugly cops are looking at your sausage. I tried to close the door many times but they kept opening it and started shouting. They also took my phone away from me that time and gave it back after i was finished. There're so many drug dealing Nigerians and other nationalities. You might have been in an area, where more drugs as usual are being sold??? Your movie might be already on coplookatwiener. com Sorry, to hear that they finished you up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshstiles Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 <script type='text/javascript'>window.mod_pagespeed_start = Number(new Date());</script> Yeah,,,,same thought.....maybe you look like a 'person of suspicion'...maybe you dress like a 'drug abuser'...who knows....but police do stereotype in every country. I am sure you weret So everyone is safe with ecstasy then? Simply refuse the to take the test.I have many times and have never given one once besides being 'ordered" so many times to do so. The Asok are and thoglor area's seem the worst. Just curious Hermes but do you look special or something. I mean in 18 years walking the streets drunk, sober or high I've never once been stopped so I'm wondering how comes you've been stopped many times? Yeah....I am wondering the same thing??? I am certain you weren't wearing a suit and tie....maybe you look like a suspicious person or a drug abuser....police everywhere will stereotype people especially foreigners. I have never been stopped along Ekami or Asok and I am there all the time. Maybe you are a troll? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumblecat Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 (edited) I've been stopped quite a few times and searched (sometimes on foot, sometimes taken out of a taxi) and I look pretty respectable. The idea that you must look like a 'suspicious person or a drug abuser' or that anyone who claims to have been stopped 'is a troll' is totally wrong. In fact this Stickman column on the same subject makes that point- there seems to be very little rationale between who gets stopped and searched beyond the fact that they're foreign- http://www.stickmanbangkok.com/StickmanWeeklyColumn2012/Bangkok-police-stop.htm editing for spelling Edited June 4, 2014 by Rumblecat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DoctorB Posted June 4, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted June 4, 2014 Not doubting what you say but... I have worked on Ekamai for 2 1/2 years and this is this first I have heard of anything like this and I talk to dozens of people every day coming to my restaurant & bar Stickman has covered this on his weekly web site numerous times; eg, see his article for 11 May, about three quarters of the way down. Procedures seem to vary. Sometimes it's a pee test, sometimes just a body and wallet search. At night the 2 cops move to just east of Asoke covering Sois 18, 20, 22 etc and the other side of the road, Sois 23 -27; presumably looking for wanderers from Cowboy. This is not bull****; be warned. Also, it's not new; it's been going on for a long time and now the Suthepistas are off the streets conducted with renewed vigour. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snottgoblin Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I dint doubt that people are still being shook down. It's been going on for as long as I have been here 2003, in that area. I haven't myself ever been shook down, and have walked that area many a time, but I don't doubt that it is happening. As for the other Rambo in Wonderland stories, I take that with a large sack of salt, although it has bought much mirth to the forum today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post gigman Posted June 4, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted June 4, 2014 Nobody will force me to do urine test in such conditions . NO WAY. I prefer to be arrested . (just what the charge????) I always keep my passport in case they wants to check my ID. (we must obey their rules...and specially now ..) I always carry my little Mp3 player recorder.....in case... I am not bad or suspicious looking smuck to be treated like that. I have my rights too and they know it. Checking my ID or search is one thing but test on drug this way ....NO WAY.!...There is a tester for saliva and they should have it .! otherwise ambulance with facility to do such tests. If they can not afford it ...not my problem . Nobody will look on my "charlie" in public. How can I be sure they do not want just frame me ??? adding something to my urine. In Australia you must have done drug test if want to be employed in bigger company. Urine test is done under strict observation by medical staff but not in front of you and urine sample is locked this way that non authorized person ( except testing lab) can open it or tamper . Even not supplying temporary mobile cover to do test is just violation of any rights ....and specially if someone is very religious...(what about Muslim woman for eg..??? ) I never ever took illegal drugs and I am not afraid of any intimidation from police. I am too old for this kind of bull.... I am sure that last thing Thailand needs now is this kind of treatment for tourists. Simply some police guys here still working on old rules but those days can be over .... if not then those people will ruin this country if news are spread how they treat us. I have my ED visa and can not find any warnings that coming to Thailand I will be subjected to this kind of treatment. Otherwise I would think twice before entering to such conditions If you do not stand up to your rights ...who will?? It does not matter where you are. I came here, I respect rules of this country and system and I demand respect for me too. Otherwise ...shoot me. P.S I think anybody witnesses or being in such situation should lodge complain to own Embassy and in your country to Thai Embassy. I believe something will be done. . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrfaroukh Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Another good reason why many expats are leaving Thailand and moving to neighboring countries.

hawker9000 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I'm not sure about this, but I think you can require them to take you to the police station for stuff like this (searches, piss test). They won't like it; you'll be "escalating" the situation, but I think it's your right. Maybe a lawyer can chime in. I was hoping the current regime was cleaning house & addressing this kind of behavior by police. Thonglor really seems to be infested with bad apples. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post TheRascal Posted June 6, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted June 6, 2014 Thonglor really seems to be infested with bad apples. My ex got her bag snatched by 2 guys on a motorbike when we were walking down Soi Thonglor. We went to the police station and when she was told to go upstairs to explain what had happened to what I assume was the two most senior guys there they treated her like it was a massive inconvenience to them to break away from watching soaps and listen to her. They couldn't have made it clearer they weren't interested in helping. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaoboi Bebobp Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 In the last eight weeks, I've done 37 Pattaya-BKK-Pattaya bus roundtrips. In two years as of this month, I've done a little more than 100 roundtrips, passing through Ekamai bus station. I'm not questioning the shakedown incident, but I've never seen a cop stir from that police box. Only ones I've seen station themselves at the bus terminal, looking for smoking scofflaws or other likely shakedown victims. It might have been one of these mobile toll cops.

Popular Post cloghead Posted June 6, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted June 6, 2014 I reckon the OP is 'shootin' straight' (as we Texans say) A similar incident happened to me about 4 years ago in Bang Na Since I knew I was 'clean'--a rare occurrence at that time--I acquiesced to their demands When I pulled out my schlong one of them downright fainted, another ran away in terror and the 3rd one shook my hand--either in awe, envy or admiration (maybe all three) I guess that's why the ladies call me 'Tripod'... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lomatopo Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=ekkamai%20drug%20police%20site%3Athaivisa.com https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=ekkamai+drug+police Seems to be a common topic based on the sheer number of threads here over the years. When walking from/to Major via the overhead walkway I often looked down and have seen Police in discussions with both Thai and foreign people who like they've come from/are going to the Eastern Bus Terminal based on their accompanying luggage. My vaguest recollection of the many, many, many threads is there may have been a focus on foreigners with strictly legal, prescription drugs but the position of the Police is often that these are not legal in Thailand owing to some convoluted drug approval agency regulations - i.e. your laws do not apply here - and that you must pay a small fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
