Popular Post snoop1130 Posted August 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 25, 2023 A woman from Phetchaburi, known as Ae Rai Rhon Khon, was apprehended today, while disguised as a tourist and transporting drugs in a passenger van. Authorities seized nearly 50,000 methamphetamine pills as she prepared to enter Kanchanaburi. The arrest followed a tip-off about a drug trafficking operation from a neighbouring country into Thailand. Ae Rai Rhon Khon was seen acting suspiciously on a passenger van travelling from Sankhlaburi to Kanchanaburi. Upon inspection, authorities found her carrying two bags filled with a large quantity of drugs, including 48,200 methamphetamine pills, 270 grammes of heroin, and 90 grammes of ice (methamphetamine). The total value of the drugs was estimated to be around 5 million baht. The drug trafficking suspect, identified as 43 year old Passiyawee (surname withheld), from Rai Khon, Ban Lad District, Phetchaburi, confessed during interrogation. She revealed that she had been recruited by a man to pick up the drugs from a drug dealer of Burmese nationality at the Thai-Burmese border near the Three Pagodas Pass. The drugs were to be delivered to a drug trafficking network in Kanchanaburi. For her services, she would receive 80,000 baht.

Popular Post MartinL Posted August 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 25, 2023 "Woman caught with 5 million baht worth of drugs disguised as a tourist". Were the drugs dressed-up like a UK-style Guy? How do they know the drugs were disguised as a tourist and not another category of visitor? Another one; "Pickup driver kills motorcyclist fleeing alcohol test in Bangkok". No, it wasn't the bike rider fleeing the test - he was on his way home from work - but the pickup driver. There's some really amateurish headline writing on here today. Granted, much of this is simply copy from other sources, rather than AN originals, but they're still amateurish. 2 7 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's stopped her little excursions across the provinces paid for with drug money... hope she likes time locked away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndomitableSpirit Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 The drugs were probably wearing board shorts or summer dresses and flip flops while being carried in an elephant designed bag. ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she gets a high blood pressure reading and feels a bit sick due to the stress of going to prison on the first day...... I am sure she will be helicopters to a private air conditioned hospital room to relax with basic comforts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
