Police General Kittirat Panpetch, Deputy Commissioner of the Royal Thai Police Acting Commissioner of the Royal Thai Police Revealing the case of Mr. Rangsiman Rome, MP on the Move Forward Party list There was a discussion about a police officer with the rank of Police Major General entering into a partnership with a casino in a neighboring country. As a result, cracking down on call center gangs in neighboring countries that cause many Thai people to become victims of human trafficking cannot be seriously pursued.

Police General Kittirat said that if there is information about police officers who have committed wrongdoing, they can report the information. Clear evidence has come. The police have an investigation process s
uch as the Police Complaints Committee (P.R.C.) to investigate and take both criminal and disciplinary action. As for the initials being specified, it must be fair to the person in question as well. Emphasize that providing information on any matter is the responsibility of the speaker. If there is evidence in the complaint The Police Commission is ready to investigate, but if accusations are made without evidence, the person being accused can use their right to take legal action.

Reporters also asked: As a commander, have you given orders to check such information or not? Police General Kittirat said that If there is a complaint to the Royal Thai Police There will be an Inspector General of Police who will act in accordance with the rules of the Police Commission and in accordance with the Royal Thai Police Act 2022, which must also be fair to the Royal Thai Police.

However, it is accepted that the negative image of police is real. And news of police officers being involved in illegal activities is a matte
r that affects the image of the Royal Thai Police. Because it causes police to be stereotyped, but confirms that there are many good police officers.

As for the case where the government has an idea to push for legal casinos in Thailand. Personally, I view it as a matter at the policy level. Everything must be within the framework of the law. If it is announced as a police law As a practitioner, I am ready to follow.

For progress in the case of Police General Surachet Hakphan, Deputy Commissioner of the Royal Thai Police. After an arrest warrant was issued for money laundering and he surrendered at the Tao Poon Police Station on April 2, The reporter asked that Is Police General Surachet considered a subordinate of Police General Kitirat? And if you must report yourself to a criminal case, you must report to the Acting Commissioner of the Royal Thai Police. or report to the Prime Minister’s Office

Police General Kittirat confirmed that command clearly lies with the Prime Minister’s Office. But the legal co
mmander is the Commissioner of the Royal Thai Police. But I emphasize that it is not myself. which police officers from the level of Deputy Commissioner of the Royal Thai Police The Inspector General of Police down to all police officers are considered subordinates of the Commissioner of the Royal Thai Police. Therefore, reporting oneself as a suspect according to police regulations is not related to the case. Those accused and charged with a criminal case must report their crimes within 7 days, which is what those charged with criminal cases must do.
