Picture: Naew Na

 

Thailand's immigration bureau chief Lt-Gen Sompong Chingduang gave details of joint operations between crime suppression, customs and the AITF or Airport Interdiction Task Force at Suvarnabhumi airport. 

 

They stopped a Mr Dutra a Brazilian travelling on a Brazilian passport from Ethiopia, reported Naew Na from the IB briefing yesterday.

 

Dutra had mixed 1,880 grams of cocaine with spirits making a sticky kind of paste that contained sediment and was thus not of the appearance of normal spirits. 

 

A test with a reagent called ONCB 052 COBALT THIOCYANATE revealed the presence of the  Class 2 prohibited substance. 

 

It was the second cocaine bust from Ethiopia that Thaivisa has reported on this week.

have just been sacrificial lambs....

Great a new ATL (acronym to learn).....but what about the smart BMW, surely this could have a role and an image in this engaging story.

found? or were tipped off, sacrificing the small guy so the big shipment could get through giving the police something to show off?

Yeah, that will trigger suspicion !

I guess he will have to quarantine for a 140 years now.

He can't be the sharpest tool in the squad if the booze becomes a pudding... Maybe this is why they sacrificed him.

... he will be rewarded with a govt ministerial job and... oh wait he's not Thai is he... off to jail!

Nobody told him they don't allow booze in ASQ?
