Basically - a cop sold drugs (marijuana) to a 23 year old farang and his 18 year old girl, then arrested him and asked to 30,000 baht to let the farang off.

I've seen backpackers walking down KSR smoking the funny grass -- right past the police! Wonder how many times a cop in need of money tries this routine there.

Just a brief inconvenience for the cop: the horror, a corrupt Pattaya cop! He'll get a couple weeks 'inactive' and will be right back extorting people in a month or two. Is his name in the article? Would be interesting to go to the police station in a couple months and ask for him (though I have a personal policy against voluntarily entering police stations, I'm sure someone would be happy to do it).

English:

Rogue Police Officer Caught in Shakedown.

On Tuesday a 21 year old British national walked into Pattaya Police station in Soi 9 and told officers he was being shaken down for money by one of their own officers. The man, Marc Ture, told them he had been engaged in conversation by a Thai man in Pattayaland Soi 3, better known as Boyztown, on Monday. He alleged the man had managed to slip an amount of marijuana into his pockets and not long afterwards he was approached by a police sergeant who asked to search his person. The Englishman was shocked when the policeman found a quantity of marijuana and he told the policeman he didnÃ¢??t know how it got there. The sergeant told the Englishman not to worry and if he handed over 30,000 baht to the policeman he would forget all about the offence. The Englishman told the sergeant he didnÃ¢??t have this kind of money on him but he would obtain it and pay him on Tuesday. The policeman agreed and an appointment was made for Tuesday at the EnglishmanÃ¢??s hotel in Soi 2. Marc Ture then went to the Pattaya police station and told his story. Senior officers then laid a trap for their rogue colleague. The sergeant arrived with the man who had originally planted the marijuana on Marc Ture, but the tables were turned when waiting officers arrested the rogue pair. It is likely the sergeant will be moved to a very inactive post.

Ok, so I got the 30,000 baht part right!

But really, where did they come up with the 21 year old? Ã Â¸ÂÃ Â¸Â²Ã Â¸Â¢Ã Â¸Â¸ 23 Ã Â¸?Ã Â¸Âµ - looks like 23 to me.

"Shocked, shocked to [discover something]!": In Casablanca, Capt. Renault (Claude Rains) says Rick's must be closed down, because he is "shocked, shocked to find gambling is going on there!" He is then presented with his gambling winnings. In everyday usage, the phrase is best used to convey that someone is displaying hypocritical shock, but people also use it to refer to a sense of shock that may be sincere but still seems naive because it is caused by a well-known, if lamentable, phenomenon.

:shocked:

I wouldnt be hanging around Pattaya for very long if I was the 23 year old. He might end up slipping off his balcony.
