Last night i'm out hanging with friends, around 3am i taxi to go home, around Asok/Petchburi area there's a police checkpoint, they pull us over, pat me down, trying to intimidate, etc. Eventually they are sifting through my wallet and find Xanax, they go apeshit, laughing like "we got him" like i'm some kind of criminal, they ask for my passport and prescription for for the pills, which i don't have or carry around with me 24/7. I insisted we go to the hospital where i've been given the medicine before, they laughed and said "no, we take you to Onnut jail" all the while laughing giggling. I said "take me to the hospital they have documentation on it etc" but they didnt give a shit.
Eventually they said "call someone who speak Thai, if not you will sleep in jail tonight" so i call my GF, also called the hospital asking them to give the police all/any info they have about me on file (which would prove i've been prescribed Xanax before).
Finally after 3 hours of bullshit they said "ok you free to go".
WTF is this shit?
People who have done nothing wrong have to spend hours in a police station , for nothing , WTF.
