(Photo via Facebook)Mae Hong Son governor Suebsak Iamwicharn was involved in the sex trade scandal in his province, deputy national police chief Srivara Ransibrahmanakul insisted Thursday. Pol Gen Srivara said police have not summoned Mr Suebsak since the provincial governor has already been questioned by a disciplinary panel set up by the Interior Ministry. The governor was previously implicated by the mother of a girl forced into prostitution, who said that Mr Suebsak was a client of the human trafficking gang. Meanwhile, Mr Suebsak was questioned for four hours Thursday by a five-member panel, led by interior deputy permanent secretary Prayoon Ratanasenee, in Mae Hong Son. Mr Suebsak said he would respect the inquiry results when they come out.
