The official story:
Apparently though, he was arrested Friday evening for 'abuse of power' and is being detained.
http://www.khaosodenglish.com/news/2019 ... tive-post/The immigration chief, who was seen as a rising star in the police force, was abruptly transferred to an inactive post according to an order released Saturday.

Re: Death Island- Koh Tao
Scottish freelance journalist, Andrew MacGregor Marshall reports that one of Thailand’s most senior and well known policemen, Lt-General Surachate Hakparn was arrested in Bangkok on Friday night.
He was an ally of the Deputy Prime Minister but apparently is now out of favour with the palace.
In 2018 he shot to international infamy when he publicly attacked the credibility of a 19 yo London girl after she reported that she was drugged, raped and robbed on Koh Tao, Thailand. His arrest appears completely unrelated to those events.

Apparently it's rumored that he has been sent to the King's own private prison. Andrew did an article about it a couple years ago.

That's what happens when you become popular and "good" at your job. You make enemies inside the establishment as well as outside. He has obviously trod on someone's tea money donor.

Good for Big Joke. He is a xenophobic fool. He believed his own hype and nationalist agenda. Guess what Thai's you are really not that great.

Re: Thailand's Immigration chief (Big Joke) arrested
https://thethaiger.com/news/bangkok/sur ... JmAzwafMJ0Former Immigration Bureau chief Surachate Hakparn, and confidant of Deputy PM Prawit Wongsuwan, said nothing yesterday about his abrupt transfer to an inactive post at the RTP HQ in Bangkok.
In his first public appearance following the transfer order from the national police chief Pol General Chakthip Chaijinda back to ‘inactive duties”, Surachate reported to work at the Royal Thai Police headquarters just before lunchtime yesterday. He smiled for the media throng but had little to say.
But he answered a phone call from a journalist who wanted to know about the transfer.
“It’s inappropriate for me to talk about it. Let the boss provide the explanation. I don’t feel it’s right for me to talk,” Surachate responded. When asked if he was all right, the officer said there was no problem at all.

pczz has trouble reading and understanding English. He has admitted that he does not read posts and does not understand that Thailand does not have a Retirement visa, it is a long stay O-A visa.phuketrichard wrote: ↑Tue Apr 09, 2019 8:01 am everyone pays for retirement extensions in Thailand
