Man Dies After Pickup Truck Plunges into Canal in Pathum Thani
Picture from responders. A 19-year-old man lost his life after his pickup truck veered off the road and plunged into a canal in Thanyaburi District, Pathum Thani, in the early hours of the morning of 15 March. The incident occurred at approximately 00:30 along the Khlong 9 Eastern Road, Bueng Sanan Subdistrict. Local police, Ruamkatanyu Foundation rescue workers, and emergency responders from Sanan Rak Municipality rushed to the scene following reports of a vehicle submerged in the water. Upon arrival, authorities found a Nissan pickup truck, registration number unknown, flipped upside down in the canal. Rescue workers recovered the body of the driver, identified as Mr. Kittiphat, aged 19. His body was transported to the Thammasat University Forensic Science Institute for further examination before being released to his family for religious rites. The victim’s 26-year-old girlfriend, Ms. Kamonwan, recounted the harrowing events. She had just finished her shift at a convenience store in Khlong 9, Lam Luk Ka District, when her boyfriend arrived in his pickup truck to escort her home. “He was driving behind me, flashing his headlights to light my way,” she explained. However, as she continued riding her motorcycle, she suddenly lost sight of his vehicle. Moments later, another motorcyclist approached her and asked if she had the contact number for emergency services, informing her that a pickup truck had just crashed into the canal. “When he said it was a white pickup truck, I knew immediately, it was my boyfriend’s car,” she said. Nearby residents braved the water in an attempt to save him, but they were unable to reach him in time. Authorities are investigating the cause of the crash. -- 2025-03-16 -

Police Raid Illegal Bitcoin Mining Operations in Bangkok and Pathum Thani
Picture courtesy of Khoasod. Thai police have dismantled an illegal Bitcoin mining operation spanning multiple locations in Bangkok and Pathum Thani, seizing high-value equipment and uncovering large-scale electricity theft amounting to over 11 million baht. Authorities raided four properties, three abandoned units in Pathum Thani and a luxury residence in the Ram Inthra 65 area of Bangkok, where the mining operation had been set up. The illegal activities not only resulted in significant financial losses but also posed a serious fire hazard due to improper electrical connections. The operation was led by Pol. Maj. Gen. Thatphum Jaruprach, Commissioner of the Economic Crime Suppression Division (ECS), who instructed Pol. Col. Theerapat Yangyuen, head of Sub-Division 3, to collaborate with the Natural Resources and Environmental Crime Suppression Division in carrying out the raid. During the search, officers confiscated: • 63 Bitcoin mining machines • 3 mining control units • 3 large electrical circuit boards • 3 routers • 3 network hubs • 3 modified electricity meters • 1 desktop computer • 1 laptop • 1 mobile phone • 2 bank account books The estimated total value of the seized equipment is over 2 million baht. The raid followed a tip-off from residents in Khlong 6, Rangsit, Thanyaburi District, Pathum Thani, who reported suspicious activities involving abandoned units. Investigations revealed that a group of investors had occupied the properties to set up illegal Bitcoin mining operations. The suspects tampered with electricity meters and transformers to steal electricity, bypassing official power supply systems. They also installed cooling systems and remote monitoring equipment, allowing them to manage the operation from a distance. Further investigation traced the main suspect to a luxury residence in Ram Inthra 65, Bangkok, which was used as the operation’s control centre. Once sufficient evidence was gathered, police obtained search warrants and raided the targeted properties. During the raid on one of the abandoned units, police witnessed illegal direct connections to the power grid. The faulty wiring posed a severe fire risk, which could have led to catastrophic damage. Authorities are now gathering further evidence to prosecute those involved. The investigation will focus on identifying and apprehending the individuals responsible for orchestrating the operation and ensuring they face legal consequences. This case highlights the growing issue of illegal cryptocurrency mining operations in Thailand, which not only cause massive financial losses but also endanger public safety through unregulated and hazardous electrical setups. -- 2025-03-16 -
