"National police chief Pol General Chakthip Chaijinda said he had ordered that every unit transfer officers allegedly linked with influential people involved in 16 offences."

"The 16 offences include illegal money lending; bid collusion; illegal fee collection from motorcycle taxis; entertainment and service business establishments violating laws;

illegal goods (including gasoline) traders; gambling-den operators; prostitution; migrant worker traffickers; duping people with faulty promises of jobs abroad;

tourist exploitation; guns-for-hire businesses; illegal debt collection services; war weapons trade; encroachment on public land; bribe-taking on highways and public places;

and drug trafficking."

"He said the police officers who were involved in these offences would have the chance to return to their earlier posts if they come clean about their wrongdoings."

"We have to be fair to them too,'' he said.

Wasn't there a purge last year? Thailand the hub of inactive posts?

"However, they will face disciplinary actions if they were found to be associated with the mafia-type figures or syndicates." Mmm, is that charged with misconduct and a prison term if guilty? Or a slap on the wrist and told to be more discreet!
