Pol. Col. Kullachart Kullachai is back on the job as Pattaya’s police chief after being suspended, not sacked, over unsolved cases of human trafficking.
Kullachart met Oct. 2 with Pol. Maj. Gen. Kittanet Thananantaveesin, commander of Chonburi police, to discuss allegations made by a marijuana dealer that he’d been threatened by a man he believed to be a police officer.
Subin Suksawad, 36, reported to police Oct. 1 that he and four friends were dealing grass from a roadside lot the day before when a man he only knows as “Ko” pulled a gun and told him to leave, as his customers were smoking grass in the area.
Subin said he believed Ko was a cop, but had no proof.
Kullachart told the senior officer that the case was being investigated, but there was no indication yet that “Ko” actually was a cop.
