YALA : A policeman and two of his female colleagues face dismissal and charges over the gang rape of a woman officer.
The victim, attached to the Bannang Sata district police office, was allegedly lured by one of the other policewomen to a pub and then to an apartment, where she was sexually assaulted by the policeman and several other men.
Pol Lt Gen Paithoon Chuchaiya, chief of the Police Operation Centre for the Southern Border Provinces, has recommended that the Royal Thai Police Office dismiss the three officers.
National police chief Wichean Potephosree deplored the attack as "utterly despicable" and vowed to take swift legal and disciplinary action against those responsible.
The three accused officers surrendered to answer the charges at the operation centre yesterday.
The suspected rapist was identified as Pol L/C Siwapong Ngernniem, of Pattani's Yarang district police station, and the two female accused as Pol L/C Shiwarat sae Tong, 23, of the Bannang Sata district station, and Pol L/C Natrata Chukao, from the operation centre.
Pol L/C Tipaya Kueakul, 23, of the Bannang Sata station, filed a complaint saying she had been lured by Pol L/C Shiwarat to a pub in Yala municipality on the night of Nov 14.
She was later taken to an apartment on Siroros Road in Muang district, where she was assaulted and detained by Pol L/C Shiwarat.
After she passed out, she was raped by Pol L/C Siwapong and many male friends of Pol L/C Shiwarat.
The police investigation also implicated Pol L/C Natrata in planning the sexual assault.
Police are searching for the other suspected rapists.
Pol Gen Wichean said it was appalling that law enforcement officers themselves had broken the law.
He said the fact that it was a sex crime committed by police against a fellow officer made it an even more serious and unpardonable offence.
"These are police officers who bullied and took advantage of a female officer who was their friend. It is utterly despicable," said Pol Gen Wichean.
