A wanted figure connected with a high-profile web gambling case involving a staggering 140 million baht was apprehended at Don Mueang Airport after arriving from Singapore. The 38 year old man, firm in his denial of all charges, has been detained for further investigation.

 

Just past 1.30am on Wednesday, at Don Mueang Airport, a specialised unit from the Immigration Checkpoint 2 (BKK2) took Weera ‘Boy’ Namsup into custody. His capture followed his journey via Thai Lion Air, flight SL-105 from Changi Airport in Singapore, which landed at 10.40pm yesterday.

 

Upon Boy’s arrival at Don Mueang Airport, BKK2 officers presented him with a warrant from the Thanyaburi Provincial Court relating to varied charges. These included assisting others in committing illegal offences, acting as an officer unrighteously or neglecting duty, instigating fear or using violence to intimidate, and disguising oneself as an officer and performing unauthorised actions as such, reported KhaoSod.
