Crime Bangkok Police Arrest “Young Entrepreneurs” Gang for Disguised E-Cigarette Deliveries
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. Metropolitan Police Division 3 have arrested two members of a criminal group known as “Young Entrepreneurs”, who exploited a national e-cigarette shortage by distributing illegal products while posing as food delivery riders. The suspects, identified as Mr. Pongsiri (27), known as Pong, and Mr. Phat (27), known as Pok, were detained after a covert police operation in the Thong Romklao market area of Min Buri. Officers seized a large quantity of illegal vaping products disguised in parcels intended for online delivery. Under the command of Pol Col Krit Komnoi, the operation was carried out by a team led by Pol Lt Col Jamnong Prasopsukmangdee. Investigators uncovered that the group had been operating an online e-cigarette distribution service from a seemingly closed shop front. Orders were placed via social media or messaging apps, with payments made by bank transfer. Products were then delivered by couriers impersonating Line Man food delivery drivers, complete with uniforms and delivery boxes mounted on motorbikes. Surveillance confirmed the operation’s method: one suspect was seen in a Line Man jacket placing parcels into a delivery box and riding away on a red-and-black Honda Wave motorcycle. Officers intercepted him on Romklao Road and searched the parcels, uncovering nine popular disposable e-cigarette devices. A subsequent raid on the store revealed further inventory: • 18 standard e-cigarette devices • 85 disposable e-cigarettes • 229 bottles of e-liquid • 1,013 accessories including pods and coils In total, 1,354 illegal items were seized, along with marketing materials, QR code payment signs linked to a Kasikorn Bank account, a tablet running inventory software, and sales records showing daily earnings of up to 100,000 baht. During interrogation, Pong admitted the group called themselves “Young Entrepreneurs” and had been active since the government launched a crackdown on e-cigarette distribution, which had caused product shortages and driven up prices. He stated that the shop was leased by associates “Ms. Patch” and “Mr. Mam”, who handled online orders. Pok managed inventory and packaging, while Pong acted as the delivery rider to avoid suspicion. Their customer base stretched across Bangkok’s outer districts, including Romklao, Lat Krabang, Min Buri, and Nong Chok, with deliveries reportedly made as far as Nakhon Nayok for a fee of 800 baht. Both suspects face two main charges: 1. Illegal sale and distribution of e-cigarettes and e-liquids, in violation of Consumer Protection Board Order No. 9/2558. Penalty: up to 3 years’ imprisonment, a 600,000 baht fine, or both. 2. Possession of smuggled goods not declared through customs, violating Section 246 of the Customs Act B.E. 2560. Penalty: up to 5 years’ imprisonment, a 500,000 baht fine, or both. The accused and all seized items have been transferred to Min Buri Police Station for further legal proceedings.

Community Panic in Nonthaburi, ‘Suspicious Package’ Turns Out to Be Life-Sized Sex Doll
Pictures courtesy of Kaoded. Residents of a condominium complex in Muang Thong Thani, Nonthaburi, were left startled in the early hours of 16 May, after a suspicious package sparked a security scare, only to reveal a surprising and humorous twist. At approximately 01:00, local police from Pak Kret Police Station were alerted to the presence of a large, unattended box near a communal rubbish area behind a condominium on Soi C12, Bond Street Road. Concerned citizens reported the object as potentially hazardous, prompting officers to attend the scene with caution. On arrival, officers discovered a large cardboard box, approximately 1.8 metres long and 40 centimetres wide, roughly the size of a human body, lying next to the bins. Following strict protocol, police opened the box with care, only to be greeted first by layers of black foam padding and a pink cloth. What they uncovered beneath caused initial alarm, a seemingly headless human body. However, further inspection revealed the “body” to be a hyper-realistic silicone sex doll, complete with a separate head wrapped in a black cloth bag. The doll, still in pristine condition, appeared unused. What had begun as a tense situation quickly turned to laughter and relief among the responding officers and the growing number of onlookers. Many had feared the worst, only to witness one of the more bizarre incidents in recent local memory. Police now believe that the doll’s owner may have discarded it discreetly, either out of dissatisfaction with its appearance, fear of discovery by guests, or simple embarrassment. Given the quality and condition of the doll, it is presumed to be a high-end item with a considerable price tag. To prevent further panic, the police have removed the doll from the scene and taken it into custody at Pak Kret Police Station. Officers noted that had it been left unattended, future passersby or refuse collectors might have made additional emergency calls, mistaking it for something far more sinister. While no crime has been committed, the unusual discovery has prompted plenty of chuckles and a reminder of the strange surprises life and night shifts, can deliver.
