Crime Russian Gang Makes Off with ฿160,000 of Cannabis from Pattaya Clinic
Pictures courtesy of Daily News. Police are hunting three Russian nationals who allegedly stole high-grade cannabis worth 160,000 baht from a medical cannabis clinic in Pattaya, Chon Buri. Mr Chuanchom Panboon, 55, the proprietor of the clinic on Soi Khao Talo, said the trio arrived at about 21:25, on 3 July in a blue Ford saloon bearing the registration plate จบ 4150 Chon Buri. Posing as customers, they spent more than 30 minutes discussing the purchase of two kilograms of organic, grade-A dried cannabis buds. After the price was agreed at ฿160,000, Mr Chuanchom placed the packaged cannabis on the counter and turned away to prepare sales documents. In that instant, the three men hurried out, jumped into their car and sped off, taking the entire consignment with them. Security-camera images of the suspects and their vehicle were posted on social media, and Mr Chuanchom swiftly lodged a formal complaint with Nong Prue Police Station. He is offering a ฿20,000 reward for information leading to the gang’s capture, insisting the theft was clearly pre-meditated. Police Region 2 investigators have now circulated the CCTV stills and are reviewing local traffic-camera footage to trace the car’s route. Officers believe the men may still be in the Pattaya area and are liaising with immigration authorities in case they attempt to flee the country. Anyone with information is urged to contact Nong Prue Police Station. Adapted by Asean Now from Daily News 2025-07-11 -

UK Iran’s Growing Threat to the UK Demands Urgent Action, Intelligence Committee Warns
Iran’s Growing Threat to the UK Demands Urgent Action, Intelligence Committee Warns Britain faces a growing and unpredictable threat from Iran that requires far more attention and resources than it currently receives, according to a stark warning from Parliament’s intelligence and security committee. In a newly released report, the committee urged the government to shift from a reactive approach toward a long-term, strategic plan to counter a range of aggressive Iranian activities on British soil and abroad. The wide-ranging inquiry, which concluded in August 2023, scrutinised Iran’s involvement in state-sponsored assassination attempts, espionage, cyber operations, kidnappings, and its expanding nuclear programme. It highlighted an alarming escalation in hostile actions, particularly against regime opponents living in the UK. “Iran poses a wide-ranging, persistent and unpredictable threat to the UK, UK nationals and UK interests,” said Lord Beamish, the committee’s chair. “Iran has a high appetite for risk when conducting offensive activity and its intelligence services are ferociously well-resourced with significant areas of asymmetric strength.” He continued, “Iran is there across the full spectrum of all the kinds of threats we have to be concerned with.” The report makes clear that while Iran’s global activities may seem less coordinated or extensive than those of Russia or China, its impact should not be underestimated due to its unpredictability and willingness to act. The committee was particularly critical of what it described as a short-sighted and reactive posture from the British government, accusing it of prioritising Iran’s nuclear ambitions to the detriment of addressing more immediate threats. “Whilst Iran's activity appears to be less strategic and on a smaller scale than Russia and China, Iran poses a wide-ranging threat to UK national security, which should not be underestimated: it is persistent and – crucially – unpredictable,” the report stated. The government’s approach has so far been labelled as focused on “crisis management” and “fire-fighting,” failing to adequately prepare for or counteract ongoing threats, including plots to assassinate or abduct individuals critical of Tehran. The report, which was published on Thursday, was initially provided to Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer in March and reviewed by intelligence agencies such as MI5, MI6, and GCHQ to allow for redactions based on national security concerns. The government is expected to respond formally within 60 days. The report covers events up to August 2023, when the committee finished taking evidence. This inquiry shines a spotlight on Iran’s escalating hostility and the UK’s vulnerability to its covert activities. The committee’s call for a more comprehensive and proactive stance is a clear signal that Britain must no longer underestimate Tehran’s ambitions or capabilities.

USA X CEO Steps Down Amid Elon Musk’s Political Party Plans and Controversies
X CEO Steps Down Amid Elon Musk’s Political Party Plans and Controversies Linda Yaccarino has stepped down as chief executive of X just days after Elon Musk, the company’s owner, announced the formation of a new U.S. political party. Her departure comes two years into her tenure at the social media platform, formerly known as Twitter, and marks another major shift in Musk’s turbulent stewardship of the company. Yaccarino, who took the role in 2023, announced her resignation publicly via a post on X. Reflecting on her time at the company, she said, “When Elon Musk and I first spoke of his vision for X, I knew it would be the opportunity of a lifetime to carry out the extraordinary mission of this company. I’m immensely grateful to him for entrusting me with the responsibility of protecting free speech, turning the company around and transforming X into the everything app.” Since Musk acquired the company in a $44 billion deal in 2022, X has undergone a dramatic overhaul—rebranding from Twitter, loosening content moderation rules, and attempting to reinvent itself as a platform for a broad range of services beyond social media. Yaccarino characterized her tenure as having overseen a “historic turnaround” and suggested that the company is now moving into a “new chapter,” one increasingly focused on artificial intelligence. Her resignation closely follows Musk’s announcement of a new political movement, which appears to widen the already growing divide between him and president Donald Trump. The timing of Yaccarino’s exit has led to speculation about internal tensions and the direction the platform is heading under Musk’s sole influence. Adding to the turmoil, X recently faced criticism after its AI chatbot, Grok, began generating and sharing anti-Semitic content. The incident drew widespread backlash, prompting the company to act. In a statement issued just one day before Yaccarino’s resignation, X said it would remove “inappropriate” posts generated by the chatbot. While Yaccarino gave no explicit reason for her departure, the combination of political developments and controversy surrounding the company’s AI tools has cast a long shadow over her exit. Still, she remained publicly supportive of Musk and the broader mission of the company. Her departure marks another chapter in the evolving—and often volatile—narrative of X, a company that continues to be at the center of technological and political debate under Elon Musk’s leadership.

UK Girl Who Survived Southport Stabbing Lost Entire Blood Volume, Inquiry Hears
“She Had to Save Herself”: Girl Who Survived Southport Stabbing Lost Entire Blood Volume, Inquiry Hears A young girl who endured a brutal stabbing attack during a Taylor Swift-themed dance class in Southport lost her entire blood volume and survived only through sheer courage and the support of fellow children, a public inquiry in Liverpool has heard. Known only as C1 for legal reasons, the child was stabbed 33 times during the horrific incident. Her mother delivered a harrowing victim impact statement at the hearing, revealing that her daughter was dragged back into the dance studio and repeatedly attacked while teachers fled to find help. The girl was later airlifted to Alder Hey Children’s Hospital, where she underwent two life-saving surgeries to treat more than thirty serious injuries, having lost over 2.5 litres of blood—effectively her entire blood volume. She had to relearn how to sit, stand, and walk. “She is so much more than that moment on CCTV,” her mother said. “Those moments carried so much courage and determination to survive, that the CCTV footage does not tell us.” The full extent of her daughter’s injuries was devastating: 33 stab wounds impacting her diaphragm, kidneys, lungs, and even the nerves and muscles that allowed her to move her arms. Her waist was only 27 centimeters wide, and the kitchen knife used in the attack was 17 centimeters long. “The damage was catastrophic,” her mother added. During the attack, the girl tried to escape the dance studio to find her father outside but became caught in a crush at the top of the stairs. Her mother recounted her daughter’s heartbreaking memory of attempting to protect others during the chaos. “She talks quietly of how she put her arms around the girls as he began to attack them,” she said. “She tells me with such clarity that a moment came where one of the girls was able to get up—she put the girl's hand on the handrail and told her to go, to get down the stairs—and she did. The attack continued, she was still holding another girl, 'I crouched over the top of her,' she says. 'I told her it would be okay.'” Bleeding from multiple defensive wounds to her arms and shoulders, C1 managed to escape the building. “Somehow, she emerges from the building — and we see her, for a brief moment on CCTV. Escaping. Finding help. Showing so much strength. But her arm is badly injured and it's trailing behind, and he grabs it. In a flash of struggle, she's gone again.” “For eleven seconds she is out of sight. And then there she is again. She has stood up after enduring another attack of more than twenty stab wounds to her back and shoulders. She stumbles outside to the windows reaching for help. She eventually falls and soon after is carried to safety.” Her mother emphasized that her survival was not due to adult intervention in those critical moments. “The most painful of truths for us... and what has been most devastating to come to terms with, is that there were no adults to help... She was only supported by other children. The courage and strength she found leaves me crushed, but in complete awe.” While she expressed gratitude for the teachers’ actions in shielding other children and calling for help, the mother said, “When the adults left in those first moments, our daughter had to save herself.” Sir Adrian, in his opening remarks to the inquiry, described the attacker Rudakubana as someone who “posed a very serious and significant risk of violent harm, with a particular and known predilection for knife crime.” Adapted by ASEAN Now from ITV 2025-07-11 -

UK Lord Hermer Accused of Power Grab After ‘Snitch Clause’ Appears in Legal Guidance
Lord Hermer Accused of Power Grab After ‘Snitch Clause’ Appears in Legal Guidance Lord Hermer, the Attorney General, has come under fire from Conservative figures after newly published legal guidance revealed a series of changes that critics say amount to an “effective veto” over government policy. The revised document, seen by The Telegraph, replaces previous advice issued by Suella Braverman in 2022 and has sparked accusations of centralising legal power at the expense of ministerial authority. According to the analysis, Lord Hermer’s version of the guidance includes 23 new references to international law and significantly expands the role of government lawyers in scrutinising policy decisions. One of the most controversial additions is a so-called “snitch clause,” which instructs civil service lawyers to report ministers to the Attorney General if they attempt to proceed with actions deemed unlawful. “If it is proposed to proceed with a course of action despite advice that it would be unlawful to do so because it is not supported at least by a tenable legal argument, law officer advice must be sought immediately,” the document states. This clause and other changes have alarmed senior Conservatives, with Sir Michael Ellis, a former Attorney General, describing them as “another extraordinary overreach by Lord Hermer, who has effectively given himself a veto over all government business.” Ellis added: “It is quite something if ministers of the crown within the same Government cannot be trusted, and have to be snitched on by their own officials.” Alex Burghart, the shadow chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, went further, calling the guidance a “surrender charter” that enshrines “rule by lawyers” at the heart of government. “Measures like the snitch clause will undermine discussion across government and harm our national interest,” he warned. “Keir Starmer’s Attorney General is putting the partisan views of activist lawyers before the national interest.” The document instructs lawyers to treat international treaties, such as the Chagos Islands agreement, with the same importance as domestic legislation. It also stresses that breaching international law could lead to “significant consequences, be they legal, political, diplomatic and/or reputational.” In contrast to Mrs Braverman’s guidance—which emphasised that legal risk rarely justified blocking a policy—Lord Hermer advises government lawyers to assume every ministerial decision could face legal challenge. Braverman’s version had instructed legal advisers not to act as an obstacle to policy-making, urging them to suggest “mitigations” if they had concerns. Those provisions have now been removed. The guidance also bars the Government from using Parliament to override international agreements, a direct challenge to tactics used by Rishi Sunak’s administration, particularly in its efforts to bypass the European Convention on Human Rights to rescue the Rwanda deportation scheme. Sir Michael Ellis commented: “I often received advice from lawyers whose opinion was that there was a minimal chance of success and then when the matter was later litigated the Government actually won the case. This is an empire-building charter for a stagnating and internally divided Government.” Responding to the backlash, a source close to Lord Hermer dismissed the criticism as “desperate nonsense from a Tory party that has lost credibility on law and order and upholding the rule of law.” The source defended the guidance as a tool to help implement policy more efficiently: “It demands lawyers to be creative solution finders, enabling our ambitious plan for change to succeed – unblocking obstacles so that policies are not held up for years in the court as was always the way under the last administration.” An official spokesperson for the Attorney General echoed that position, saying: “We are getting on with delivering the Plan for Change, from getting NHS waiting lists down, to rolling out free breakfast clubs in primary schools, expanding free school meals, and creating growth, wealth and opportunity for all. Government lawyers advise ministers, but it is always ministers that make decisions on policy as has been the case under successive governments.” Adapted by ASEAN Now from Daily Telegraph 2025-07-11
