123kg of ‘ice’ seized in Hat Yai

By The Nation

 

Police located and seized 123 kilograms crystal meth or “ice” at a rented house in Songkhla’s Hat Yai district after they arrested a suspected drug courier in Satun on Friday night.

 

This was on top of a previous seizure linked to the same person.

 

Police arrested Pisal Thongthammachart, 29, at the living quarters of a rubber company in Satun’s Khun Kalong district at 8pm.

 

Pol Colonel Sompong Suwanwong, commander of Crime Suppression Sub-division 6, said police traced Pisal after 95kg of crystal meth was found at a room of a resort in Moo 2 village in Tambon Khuan Kalong of Kuang Kalong district on Tuesday.

 

Police checked fingerprints and collected surrounding evidence before obtaining an arrest warrant for Pisal on Thursday.

 

Pisal told police that he was hired by a person he knew only as “Bearwa” to smuggle the drug from Hat Yai to deliver to recipients in Satun. He was paid Bt100,000.

 

He picked up the drugs at a hotel in Hat Yai and kept them at a rented house there before taking the first consignment of 95kg to the resort, but police found it before he could deliver it.
