Probe after drug suspect dies in cop extortion bid


Recommended Posts

BANGKOK: Royal Thai Police are probing a report which claimed a senior police officer in Nakhon Sawan accidentally killed a drug suspect in a botched attempt to extort him out of B2 million.
An investigation was launched after the claim was made public by celebrity lawyer Decha Kittiwittayanan on Facebook.
According to Mr Decha’s post, the case began with the arrest of a man and woman over drug offences by a team from the provincial police. The officers, he said, pressed the pair into agreeing to pay B1mn to be released.
However, a senior officer, a police colonel, demanded the pair double the amount.
As they negotiated the amount, the officer put a plastic bag over the man’s head to intimidate him, but he suffocated and died instead, the post said. Before sending his body to the hospital, the senior officer instructed his subordinates to ensure the man’s cause of death was listed as a drug overdose.
He then released the woman from police custody, in exchange for keeping her mouth shut.
A subordinate who witnessed the entire thing decided to lodge a complaint, Mr Decha said.

Here's the video from thai rath news twitter feed, be warned it's extremely disturbing, but shows just how corrupt, uncivilised, pitiless and savage the thai police can be when there is money to be had.

The cop forced a confession out of these guys below just at the sight of a unlubricated plunger.  Political prisoners says me.

The appalling story of the Mueng Nakhon Sawan Police suffocating a man to death while trying to extort him for 2 million baht continues with more and more shocking turns. Now details are emerging of the accused police station superintendent Pol Col Thitisan Utthanaphon’s luxury house on a large plot of land in Bangkok with 13 high-end cars.

First, the superintendent was transferred to another precinct until video of the murder was posted online and immediately went viral. Today the Thai court issued warrants for the arrest of 7 of the police officers, including the superintendent, 4 of whom are in custody already.

The chief of the Royal Thai Police General Suwat Chaengyodsuk sent in Pol Maj-Gen Noppasin Phoonsawat to try and find a fugitive police colonel at the center of a murder inquiry.

 

Instead they found luxury cars - lots of them.

 

Pol Col Thitisan Utthanaphol was not at his Ram Inthra home in Bangkok but there were 13 sports and supercars including Porsche, Lamborghini, Ferrari and Mercedes Benz models. 

 

The provenance of the vehicles is being investigated.

Later Sanook discovered an inventory of all the vehicles owned by the former chief of the Muang Nakhon Sawan police in the north of Thailand.

 

It contained the names of 29 models amounting to hundreds of millions of baht.

 

Not bad for someone who Daily News reported yesterday as earning just 43,330 baht a month. 

 

The cop known by the nickname of "Joe Ferrari" was one of the leading lights in the fight against drugs until his abrupt removal from the force after a drug suspect died in custody.

 

The suspect was shown on a video being tortured by placing plastic bags on his head in an alleged extortion incident involving several officers.

Talk about turning a blind eye, surely there must be some honest people within the system who may of thought it odd that this Policeman had such a residence plus lifestyle on His salary.
