Gen Prayuth told media in Bangkok on Tuesday that he had received a complaint regarding the officer from a local.

Phuket Provincial Police Commander Teerapol Thipjaroen told the Phuket Gazette that Maj Thanturong Wuthiwong was the officer in question, whose transfer was confirmed yesterday.

Samo Samo - just transfer and move any problem somewhere else to go away and die - the typical Thai solution to everything.

"“I was accused of using a weapon to threaten the operator of an entertainment venue. I have witnesses who can corroborate that I didn’t use any weapon that day. As for the complaint that I received benefits (tea money), I have already confirmed that the allegations are not true,” said Maj Thanturong.

 

Case closed, I feel sorry for this poor guy.  He didn't use his weapon "that day" and he confirms his own innocence.

What transfering does is take away their opportunity to make as much in bribes as before thus costing them money.What the higher ups do not want to do is fire them because that would set a precedent  and when the higher ups get caught later they would face the same verdict.
