Col Anchulee, accompanied by lawyer Sittha Biabangkerd, claimed that a Facebook user “Tum Leenutaphong” posted the untrue and demeaning personal information about her on four occasions since early February, which affected her career and her family.

Police were collecting evidence for the division to consider and proceed with legal action against the Facebook user.

“It is illegal to post untrue information on social media. People need to think carefully before posting anything,” Col Anchulee added.
