The police fact-finding committee against Pol Colonel Chairit Anurit of the Metropolitan Police, who allegedly drove former Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra to Sa Kaew province during her flight on August 23, has ruled that the officer severely breached the police code of ethical conduct for doing so.

He also committed a lesser breach of the ethics code for illegal use of a vehicle during the flight, ruled the committee.

The committee will submit the finding to a disciplinary panel for further consideration of actions against Chairit, said its head, Pol Maj-General Panurat Lakboon.
