Banglamung Police officer arrested for drug dealing
Boonlua Chatree
A Banglamung Police officer set for promotion won’t be getting his
stripes after being arrested for allegedly dealing drugs from his
bungalow.
Sen. Sgt. Maj. Sumran Thupthimthet, 53, was taken into custody March 27
outside the SR House Bungalow. He was captured in possession of 10
methamphetamine tablets and investigators found another 85 ya ba pills
and 0.6 g. of crystal methamphetamines hidden inside.
Police said Sumran confessed to purchasing the drugs from a Trat man for
resale. He also failed a drug test and was charged with illegal use of a
Class 1 narcotic.
The arrest of Sumran, who was set to be promoted to captain March 29,
came after officers captured Watchornchai Duangmaung, 16, selling two ya
ba tablets from an apartment at SR House, which the Sumran owns. The
teen told police he bought his drugs from the police officer.
Sumran has been fired from the police force and was denied bail.
