Kathu – Two illegal nightclubs were raided in Kathu for allegedly opening over the legal closing times and allowing minors to enter the venue.

Officials from the Department of Provincial Administration (DOPA) led by Mr. Narong Thipsiri and Kathu Police raided two nightclubs ‘Ratree Club’ and ‘Maha Nakhon Phuket’ at 3:30 A.M. on Thursday (June 1st) in the early morning. Both nightclubs are located at the Kathu Intersection.

 

Mr. Narong told the Phuket Express that the raid came after DOPA received complaints from local residents nearby that these nightclubs were opened late daily until the morning and disrupting their sleep. Allegedly, Ratree would be open until around 4 AM and then nightclub goers walked across the road to the ‘Maha Nakhon Phuket’ Club on the opposite side of the street which closes at 6:00 A.M. everyday. The legal closing time is 2:00 A.M.

 

Hundreds of nightclub goers were found in both places. Both nightclubs were found with no legal licenses, added DOPA.

Local plod turning a blind eye for a fee again?

They venues weren’t worried about not having a license… thinking you can’t lose what you don’t have…

Fun busters on the move again. Give the people some entertainment, live is tough enough.
