Crime Thai Authorities Arrest Woman for Selling Meth from Grocery Shack in Pattaya
Picture courtesy of SiamChon. Local officials and police in Bang Lamung District have arrested a 55-year-old woman for selling methamphetamine from a small roadside grocery stall that served as a front for drug dealing to local youths and factory workers. The operation was carried out under the direction of Mr. Patcharapach Sritanyanon, District Chief of Bang Lamung, in coordination with the Bang Lamung Police Station. Acting on community intelligence and as part of the Ministry of Interior’s “No Drugs, No Dealers” initiative, officials launched a sting operation targeting drug activity in the Takhiantia area. Residents in Moo 5 had alerted authorities to suspicious activity at a zinc-roofed grocery shop that reportedly served as a hub for drug sales. Undercover officers monitored the premises and noted a constant stream of motorcycles arriving and leaving, a clear sign of illicit dealings. A controlled buy was arranged, during which an undercover agent successfully purchased four methamphetamine pills for 200 baht. Once the transaction was completed, police immediately moved in. The suspect, identified as Ms. Nookorn, a native of Si Sa Ket province, was apprehended while standing calmly in front of her shop. The marked banknotes used in the undercover purchase were found in the apron she was wearing. A further search of the premises revealed 290 methamphetamine tablets concealed in a plastic zip bag hidden behind a corrugated metal sheet in the shop. Ms. Nookorn confessed that the drugs belonged to her and that she had acquired them from a man known only as “Mr. M” in the Pong area, purchasing them at 30 baht per pill and reselling them for 50 baht each. Authorities have taken the suspect and the confiscated drugs to Bang Lamung Police Station for formal charges and legal proceedings. Officials reiterated their commitment to rooting out drug trafficking in local communities and warned that further raids would continue under the zero-tolerance policy.

Accident Road Crash Claims Life of Young Woman in Ayutthaya
Picture courtesy of Workpoint. A 21-year-old woman has died in a crash, after the motorcycle she was riding pillion on was struck and she was thrown beneath a passing trailer lorry. The incident occurred on Highway 3056 in Uthai district, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya province. Police Lieutenant Pallop Intharachet, of Uthai Police Station, responded to reports of a collision involving a motorcycle and an articulated lorry. Emergency responders from the Ayutthaya Ruamjai Rescue Unit also attended the scene. The deceased has been identified as Ms Supriya, a resident of Nong Saeng district in Saraburi province. She sustained fatal head injuries and severe trauma to her body. Her partner, Mr Krissadaphong also 21 and from the same district, suffered facial and bodily injuries and was treated at the scene before being taken to hospital. According to reports, the couple had been travelling from Saraburi to visit the woman’s mother and friends in Pathum Thani. Mr Krissadaphong, who was driving the black Honda Wave motorcycle, told police that another motorcycle veered left as if to discard rubbish, causing a collision. He was unable to brake in time, resulting in their bike toppling over. Ms Supriya was thrown into the path of a trailer lorry and crushed beneath its rear wheels. The other motorcyclist fled the scene and remains unidentified. The driver of the trailer lorry, 59-year-old Mr Tawee, from Nonthaburi, said he had been travelling in the left lane en route to deliver goods in Chonburi when the collision occurred. “I didn’t see the motorcycle until I felt something under the rear wheels,” he stated. “I tried to swerve but couldn’t avoid it in time. I’m deeply saddened by what’s happened.” An eyewitness, 62-year-old Mr Sombat, who was driving a staff shuttle van behind the motorcyclists, confirmed the collision between the two bikes. He said the victim’s motorcycle fell just as the lorry passed by, leading to the fatal impact. He also noted that his own vehicle narrowly avoided hitting the wreckage, but was struck by a following car. Police have documented the scene, interviewed witnesses, and taken both the lorry driver and the injured boyfriend for further questioning. An investigation is ongoing to determine the exact cause and whether charges will be filed. Adapted by Asean Now from Workpoint 2025-07-25 -

Crime Tensions Explode: Thai Boxer Hits Cambodian Worker After Deadly Military Clash
Picture via Facebook/ ข่าววงไหน ตลาดล่างนิวส์ A viral video of a former Thai boxing star slapping a Cambodian worker in a market has ignited fears of escalating ethnic violence. The incident comes in the wake of a deadly clash between Thai and Cambodian forces on July 24. Anger is brewing online, with many condemning the ex-boxer’s actions as reckless and inflammatory. Earlier today, Thailand's Ministry of Public Health announced that 12 Thai nationals were killed in attacks by the Cambodian military, including a soldier and numerous innocent civilians. A 15-year-old boy was among the tragic victims, further intensifying the country's grief and anger. Reports from Thailand’s Army Region 2 indicate that the Cambodian military appeared to target civilians deliberately, hitting a hospital, a residential area in Surin province, and a convenience store at a petrol station in Sisaket province. The strikes on these civilian areas have drawn widespread outrage and condemnation across Thailand. In response to the attacks, some Thai netizens and online influencers have dangerously called for retaliation against Cambodians in Thailand. Suggestions range from urging police to arrest undocumented Cambodian workers to advocating for more extreme measures. Amid this tense atmosphere, the unnamed former boxer posted a video of himself confronting Cambodian workers in a market. Picture via Facebook/ ข่าววงไหน ตลาดล่างนิวส์ In the footage, he implores one worker to speak with Cambodian soldiers to halt attacks on Thai civilians and coerces another to condemn the military actions on camera. When one man smiled instead of speaking, the boxer slapped him in frustration, issuing a verbal warning that Cambodian soldiers might escape punishment, but their compatriots in Thailand would not. The video sparked widespread condemnation online, with many Thais criticising the boxer for inflaming already tense relations. Emphasising the potential consequences, some pointed out that retaliatory actions could endanger the numerous Thai nationals living and working in Cambodia. In response to the backlash, the ex-boxer removed the video from his Facebook account; however, he has not yet made a public apology or clarified his actions. Concerns remain high as to whether this incident might escalate tensions further. As the situation develops, many express hope for a peaceful resolution and stress the importance of leaving conflict management to authorities rather than individuals resorting to violence.
