Fire Station Director Transferred Over Prurient Dance Party

BANGKOK — A fire station chief has been suspended for inviting erotic dancers to a celebration inside the station.

Teerayuth Bhumipakdi, who oversees the Tungmahamek Fire Station on Yen Akat Road, was transferred to an inactive post and faces a disciplinary probe into the lewd party, footage of which was later uploaded online where it drew criticism.

“Someone has to be held responsible,” Tewanuwat Anirutthewa, head of the municipal disaster relief agency, told reporters Tuesday. “The images that came out were inappropriate.”
