The Phuket Provincial Police intensified their crusade against the unlawful sale and distribution of SIM cards, leading to the arrest of a suspect identified as Korn.

 

Police reported that the 38 year old man was apprehended yesterday at about 1pm, in the Phuket Wittayalai area. During the arrest, 20 activated SIM cards along with two Thai ID card readers were confiscated.

 

Further investigations ensued at an undisclosed area which resulted in the seizure of additional 27 unregistered SIM cards accompanied by 15 more Thai ID card readers.

 

Korn has been moved to the Phuket City Police Station and is officially charged with the illegal dissemination and marketing of SIM cards, particularly for distributing a registered SIM card to an individual whose identity cannot be authenticated.
