This Monday, two Bangkok police officers were suspended from civil duties following accusations that they had coerced women into sex.
Metropolitan Police Bureau chief Kamronwit Thoopkrachang announced the suspensions. Pol Sub Lt Thatree Suebsamarn, a deputy inspector at Thong Lor police station, will be suspended following his accused rape of a Laotian teenager, which took place while he was moonlighting as a cab driver.
Pol Sen Sgt Maj Worawit Nukulkij has been suspended following an ignominious video that surfaced online, in which he is chased through Bangkok streets by a man who accuses him of having taken his sister to a hotel.
The Bangkok Post reports that Worawit stands accused of having blackmailed the woman into sex.
