897kgs of crystal methamphetamine bound for Taiwan seized at Bangkok port

[Jonathan Fairfield]

 

Thai customs officials seized 897 kilograms of crystal meth at Bangkok port today (Saturday). The drugs were being transported to Taiwan.

 

Customs officials attributed the seizure to a tipoff from an informant, who told the authorities that a huge haul of illegal narcotics was to be shipped today.

 

Customs officials found 24 cardboard boxes and had all of them X-rayed, revealing several packs stacked together in each box. Samples of the contents were tested and found to be crystal methamphetamine, or “ice”.

Can't have $$$ leaving the country now, can we. 

 

How long until the crystal meth is released on bail?

Does Customs get a cut of the spoils?

Do they not have teams of sniffer dogs working around the ports... or do they just rely on informants?

Oooi. Who took 3kg? A ton shipped with 10% to Ferrari Joe’s syndicate. Won’t be using that port again.
