The Office of the Narcotics Control Board (ONCB) announced the arrests of two alleged drug smugglers and the confiscation of 6 million methamphetamine pills and properties in dispute worth more than 21 million baht.

 

Police General Roy Ingkapairote, Deputy police chief of the Narcotics Suppression Bureau (NSB), ordered the ONCB police to conduct an expanding investigation of two drug networks which eventually led to the arrests on Sunday, June 26th.

 

In the first case, suspect Wattana Sriwilai, 48, was captured along with 1,976,000 methamphetamine tablets while reportedly in the process of transferring them onto a 6-wheel vehicle. He told the police that he was hired by a Lao man, whose name was unknown and who he claimed to be unable to contact, for 100,000 baht to drive the truck to transport the drugs from Mueang Khon Kaen District, Khon Kaen, to Saraburi province.

It sounds like they arrest the driver from the article headlight it sounds like they arrested to king pin drug smugglers TIT

Do the pills sell for only 3.5 baht? Maybe so low because everyone is stoned on pot now.

I wonder what was the biggest shipment to NOT get caught.

 

probably 500 million pills.   lol.  Maybe 1 billion pills.    

 

I like these articles, but that looks like the amount cooked up in about 20 minutes in the jungles of the Shan state.
