A notorious nightclub in the Lam Luk Ka district was stormed and dismantled by the Ministry of Interior (MOI) for allowing underage visitors and drug use.

 

The raid, conducted last night, alarmed over 300 patrons, with some discarding drugs such as ice, ketamine, and happy wormer on the floor. Out of the total patrons, 137 tested positive for drug use.

 

Ansit Sampantarat, Director of the Department of Provincial Administration (DOPA) under the MOI, spearheaded the operation. He was assisted by Ronnarong Thipsiri, the DOPA inspector, the chief of the law enforcement operations centre, officials from the investigation and legal affairs office, the MOI, and specialist officers from the Narcotics Control Board (NCB) Region 1. More than 50 border patrol officers participated in the operation.

 

The infamous club, located in Khu Khot, Lam Luk Ka district, Pathum Thani province, was subjected to this operation following several complaints lodged by the locals. They claimed that the establishment allowed individuals younger than 20 years old access, facilitated drug abuse, and sold narcotics within its premises.
