Thai cops punished by Hello Kitty

[moggie]

Sanrio's march towards world domination continues, now infiltrating law enforcement:

Police chiefs in the Thai capital, Bangkok, have come up with a new way of punishing officers who break the rules - an eye-catching Hello Kitty armband.

The armband is large, bright pink and has a Hello Kitty motif with two hearts embroidered on it.

From today, officers who are late, park in the wrong place or commit other minor transgressions will have to wear it for several days.

The armband is designed to shame the wearer, police officials said.

Sure, they claim it's a punishment, but don't be surprised when cute pink Hello Kitty tasers start appearing.
