Popular Post webfact Posted September 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 21, 2021 Picture: Naew Na Thailand's Immigration Bureau chief Lt-Gen Sompong "Big Oud" Chingduang announced the arrest of a middle eastern man who changed his name and passport after being deported and blacklisted for peddling drugs. Mohammed had been arrested in 2018 for selling drugs in the Nana nightlife area of Bangkok. Many people of middle eastern descent live in the area of Soi 3 sometimes referred to as "Little Arabia". Mohammed showed a Jordanian passport at the time of his arrest and was later deported and blacklisted. However, in 2020 he changed his passport and became an Egyptian national and sneaked back into Thailand. He still had the name Mohammed but his middle and surname, date and place of birth and his beard and hair color were all altered so he could slip in unnoticed, reported Naew Na. During a crackdown on middle easterners in the Nana area he was found walking the street and behaving suspiciously. He was found to be on overstay on the Egyptian passport. Naew Na said his arrest in 2018 was because he was in the "Arab Mafia" in the Nana area. He lived there because he hoped to blend in, they said. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2021-09-21 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow ASEAN NOW on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chalawaan Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 The reason we have to do 90 day reports (tho the bad guys don't do them anyway!) Is because their border interdiction training and technology is fossilized dogpoo. There's no way this guy should have made it past the guy with medals for nothing, in the booth at port of entry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just go,s to show how pointand useless the biometric scans are when entering. Surely he was wen entering first time and again when deported. But not matched entering on his Egypt alias??? Or there is somone at a thai immigration border looking the other way while taking a brown envelope..

Deli Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 Did he change his fingerprints as well ? Holy cow, it's so easy nowadays to filter, IF they really would want.

Holy cow, it's so easy nowadays to filter, IF they really would want. But they rather prefer to chase foreigners having a birthday party, Maybe, I am cynical but it seems to me the whole biometrics fiasco was to say to the outside world they were taking measures to combat international crime but in reality they were not. It appears all the fingerprint and face recognition does is link the passport to the biometrics after the first time you enter and then to prove you are the passport holder that entered. It doesn't seem to hold up against changing names and nationalities or countries for those blacklisted, which in some countries it would be difficult to obtain new identity passports especially nationality, but in many Middle Eastern ones not so difficult. Is this what ' Big Joke ' found out and got moved for speaking out about it? Edited September 21, 2021 by Scouse123 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
