No it's not.

The order is to find out how the photo was made aware to the general public.

National police chief orders probe of Lao drug lord’s connection with Thai police

 

 

BANGKOK: -- Royal Thai Police commissioner Pol Gen Chakthip Chaijinda has ordered an investigation into the connection between  the arrested Lao drug kingpin Xaysana Kaewpimpa and some certain Thai police following the posting of several photographs on the Internet showing the drug suspect posing with both local and immigration police.

 

The photographs posted by a Laotian poster went viral on the social media with many viewers questioning their relationship.

 

Pol Gen Chakthip said he has not yet seen the photographs but has ordered the probe into the relationship between these officers and the alleged drug kingpin.

 

According to the Laotian net users, Xaysana was widely known as a young generation businessman who got rich from hotel and sawmill businesses. He was also well-known as a collector of supercars.

Caught with their pants down again! But no one will remember in a week or so. Consequences are for the poor and the politically misaligned. 

Let me offer a clue = money

Maybe.. but what exactly does the photo show. What does it prove what has the guy done (besides having bad friends or acquaintances).  It could mean a lot.. or nothing..  I can see why more proof is needed.

Pol Gen Chakthip has ordered an investigation into why he didn't get his cut.

CCTV didn't work???

No, no, no and No! It´s just a friendly photo/photos with a happy tourist crossing the border. What´s the fuzz?
All other ones in different places is just for a happy man that want to show appreciation for his visa.

How embarrassing, being pictured with such dirty low life scum. This is cruelty beyond compare.  If there were any justice in this world the poor drug dealer would  be compensated for having to endure such a  despicable degrading act. 

Here comes another committee, and then....nada

The Big cop jealous he did get his money TIT

This investigation will go nowhere. Just like the enquiry into Bangkok City police chief Sanit Mahathavorn who collects monthly 50,000 baht envelopes from Thai Beverage. Entitlement money from alcohol or drugs it doesn't matter; it is still money.

Perhaps there should be an investigation into why the RTP seniors don't have control of their men and why their men are not focused on real police work!

 

Example: more and more drug traffickers caught with big shipments but no progress whatever on massive reduction (any reduction) in the drugs trade and (expect for a high profile case a few days ago now involving Thai 'celebrities) no progress whatever on the big guys.

Oops, the perp who posted the pics is in Laos and out of the junta's jurisdiction.

The first thing out of an officials mouth when confronted with an embarrassing situation is: I haven't seen it yet, I haven't heard it yet, I haven't read it yet.

In this case it's:

We would like to see that there is something more nefarious at work here, so that corruption or illegal activities can be prevented or reduced. Until you legalize and teach kids what drugs are and do, this problem will continue to create all kinds of problems. Plenty of experiments show that happy and well-fed people do not need drugs. And, if there is no money to be made for selling the drugs in the first place, there won't be so much push towards a use. It is an ideological question. I thought we learned a long time ago that prohibition did not get rid of drugs, just got rid of some people and made others very rich, for some time. Of course, there is a long line of people who got rich thanks to that, which might explain the reluctance from fixing the problem in the first place.

 

Very disappointing, but I think the drug lord was just posing while crossing the border as part of a vehicle rally.

 

 

So how about a link to the actual picture in question?

 

Then we may be able to form an educated opinion.

Yeah, even in this day of electronic mass media and fast spreading of news, if the authorities can't or won't or don't act, the effect of the information, damning or not is small.

Great read as always. Your ending was correct. If a thing is illegal it draws a premium. Drugs are like curiosity killed the cat. Never experimented never wanted to. Different generation no so daring erring on the side of caution got me to where I am today with no mental or health problems and a darn sight wealthier. 

The money should have reached to the top...

And this is what comes with 'promoting' incapable small world thinkers with no aligned knowledge or focus to senior positions, through position buying and nepotism.

Absolutely nothing will come of this. Why? Nobody here in a position of power, influence, authority, wealth, or who has family connection will ever be pursued by this administration. They are doing everything within their power to protect those people.

 

When was the last time you saw a man with rank, power, or current authority arrested and convicted? Never. It just does not, and will not happen. He is not interested. He is interested in protecting them, not taking them down. All of this bluster is just meant for public consumption. Would this clown have posed with this kingpin if he thought there was even a 1% chance something would come of it? Never in a million years. This guy is not dumb. He is simply corrupt to the bone.
