madmitch Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 The raid in Rawai was conducted under an order by Vice Admiral Somnuk Preampramot (Commander of the Third Area Command in Phuket), Maj Gen Teeraphol Thipjaroen (Phuket Provincial Police Commander), Col Santi Sakuntanak (Commander of the 25th Infantry Regiment) Col Sermpan Sirikong (Phuket Provincial Police Deputy Commander) and Col Pakayot Tanongsak (Chalong Police Chief). Obviously took Phuket's finest Police and Naval brains to organise such a major raid! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zack61 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 I personally am happy to see these bastards taken down having been an innocent victim of their activities during World Cup in 2010. I lost about 100k baht to a travel agent who they had their claws into. Now all my travel arrangements are made on the web using my credit card. Beware of parting with cash during WC.
