National police announced the results of four major drugs' busts yesterday.

 

Leading the way was the arrest on a warrant of a major dealer known by the nickname of "Ek Uan" or Jirat Pensophonwit in Ayuthaya.

 

A total of 38,464,552 baht worth of gold bullion, jewelry, cash and watches was found in his two safes. Six other associates were later arrested in the Bangkok area and deputy police chief Chalernkiat Sriworakhan said that the total assets seized amounted to almost 200 million baht.

 

Two of the other cases involved Nigerian's and cocaine.

 

Thai woman Nusara Chamkrom, 26, and Francis Okenwa from Nigeria aged 32, were arrested after 1.8 kilos of cocaine was seized at Suvarnabhumi airport on Friday. The drugs had come from Dubai.

 

In South Pattaya police arrested Kenneth Chiboge Prince also from Nigeria. A suspect package sent via private courier from Peru had been opened by police and found to contain 950 grams of cocaine. This led to the arrest of the recipient named on the package.

 

While in Rayong eight Thais were arrested with almost 200 kilos of ganja and 187 Ya Ba tablets on Saturday.

The use of the word SMILES is probably the understatement of the year !

So many thoughts going through their heads ! :passifier:

Why do I suspect the thoughts running through the cops heads involves new cars and very healthy looking bank balances? The chances of none of that going astray is zero.

Remember the 100+ police applicants caught paying 400,000b each to cheat on the entrance exam in one province alone one year?

 

Time to get that return on investment.

holy cow   !   that's alot of cash    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sadly, it will go to those who need it least.  Professional policemen would not beam quite so much.  Those smiles suggest the money will find its way to unworthy pockets.

Well for your information, i have put flesh on my claims.

A fact which a few members on here can verify, so stop getting your knickers in a twist about something you know nothing about.

Honest and trustworthy, just like the lawyers, taxi drivers and jetski renters.

I've been here a similar amount of time, and love the place, warts and all.

 

The legal mafia are some of the warts. I've lost a brother in law to them. You need to remember these are the boys who, when one of their own was killed and dragged under a car for hundreds of metres, first thought about how much money they could make out of the situation.

 

You say you love Thailand, but you are yet to acknowledge one of its biggest problems.

What he said was way more "constuctive" than your comment.

I'd love to hear how you justify that remark.
