A woman uninterested in giving a drunken Pattaya traffic cop a hug complained to police the Thai man had harassed her.
Thitima Mitsamrong, 22, told police she was standing outside the Marine Disco early July 28 when Kampan Wiangnon, 34, got over a motorbike and tried to flirt and hug her. She said she spurned his advances, as he was clearly drunk, but the traffic department ticket writer kept harassing her, saying she must do what he said because he was a Pattaya Police Station officer.
Kampan Wiangnon (front right) is brought in for questioning after allegedly attempting to use his badge to harass a woman on Walking Street.
Real Pattaya police rounded up the pencil pusher, who reportedly confessed to harassing Thitima. The woman declined to press charges, but urged police to scold Kampan not to bother other women the same way. Police said they would file a report with his city supervisor, who might issue a reprimand for allegedly trying to use his city position for personal gain.
