Police aim to visit 3,900 members of ‘organic marijuana’ Facebook page

By The Nation

Police vowed on Thursday to trace and take legal actions against over 3,900 members of a closed Facebook group that encourages members to grow so-called “organic marijuana”.
 

Pol Maj-General Panumart Boonyalak, commander of the Patrol and Special Operation Division (191), made the threat during a press conference held at 8.30pm to announce the arrest of three suspects.

Panumart identified the three arrested earlier this week as Nattapong Sawetwiharnree, 37, Panuwat Thianprapas, 37, and Resnarin Chutipichian, 30. Police also seized 1.61 kilograms of dried marijuana, 40 cubic centimetres of hashish, and 21 marijuana plants.

 

Panumart said the case began when officers learned that home-grown marijuana, which sellers called “organic marijuana”, was being distributed in Bangkok, especially in the area under the jurisdiction of the Chokechai police station.

 

Police traced a buyer and arrested Nattapong at his house in Pathum Thani’s Thanya Buri district, after which police learned that he sold the drug through a Facebook group called “Let’s Grow Marijuana Version 2”.

 

Police checked the group and traced two more sellers, Panuwat and Resnarin, and arrested them.

 

The suspects said they ordered marijuana seeds from England at the price of Bt500 to Bt600 per seed and grew them for more seeds and to sell plants, dried marijuana and hashish.

 

Police have now acquired the names of the 3,900 group members and will investigate whether they have bought marijuana plants to grow at home, added Pol Colonel Somboon Thiankhao, an officer at the division.

Of course , yes .

Publicly stating that you have infiltrated a group participating in illegal activity and that you will shortly be arresting them , will cause them to get rid of all the evidence that they posses and delete all incriminating posts , giving them a chance to get away .

   Arrest them first and then announce it

Do you think it could possibly be because you are concerned that the police might not catch some pot smokers?

You seem to have misunderstood what I meant .

I was merely commenting on Police procedure and how they handle their investigations , what they were investigating is besides the point .

   If some people want to smoke dope and go through life dopey , completely misunderstanding what other people are say , then , thats entirely up to them .

   I have no problem with that at all , I dont mind having to explain things to dopes

I am all for it!

After all, you hear these stories every day, where people get potted up and kill their partner in a rage or beat their children black and blue.

And then there's all the victims of traffic accidents, because some dope- head ...what was that?

Oh...that was alcohol?

 

....ah...never mind!

Your out of your mind. Those with little or no knowledge concerning the subject should not comment. Ypur statement is very incorrect. Do your home work. Research! Don't participate in witch hunts just to watch an innocent person suffer!!! If you have or might someday take pharmacutitcal drugs prescribed by your doctor, your allowing them to poison you with side affects that are worse than the intended means! Ignorance is your own fault! Research then post your findings.

If you were suggesting that I am an "alcoholic pill poppper" , you would have to make the odds a lot shorter than 10-1.

   You would have to make the odds evens or odds on .

Mate, I thought it would be clear, but apparently I have to spell it out. It was meant as a joke, dummy.

Sanemax loves all forms of government oppression.

"Might makes right" does not equal "sane".
