Thailand’s Natural Resources and Environment Crime Division (NRECD) will take over, from Phachi district police, the investigation into a chemical recycling company in Ayutthaya province, accused of dumping industrial waste at an old warehouse and in nearby areas.

 

Pitaya Pramotvoraphan, deputy director-general of Pollution Control Department, said that the warehouse had been used by Aek Uthai, a chemical recycling company, to store industrial waste instead of recycling it.

 

About 50 tonnes of industrial waste in plastic and iron barrels and big bags were found stored in the 1.25 hectare compound when officials from the Pollution Department and Industrial Works Department, NRECD police and other officials inspected the facility. Industrial waste was also found dumped in a pit and covered with soil and used wire outside the warehouse.

Who seem to have been very negligent in their duties?

Environmental Police?
