(Police News photo)Five policemen face disciplinary investigation for allegedly helping TV actress Amelia Jacobs get off lightly on drug charges, the acting Bangkok police chief announced on Tuesday. Pol Lt Gen Sutthipong Wongpin said an internal fact-finding inquiry found that five policemen from two stations, one of them Sai Mai, did Ms Amelia a favour through their testimony in court. No one would help the policemen under investigation because the case concerned illicit drugs, he said. The Metropolitan Police Bureau launched the fact-finding investigation in response to a complaint from lawyer Atchariya Rueangratanapong last month.
