Nightclub raided: underage entry, drug use and lack of license lead to five-year closure

[webfact]

 

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.

Open the venues till 4 am and see how many more they can close forever... It is common but with a lack of police contrl and law enforcements, things will neve rchange

Just curious how they prove one of the charges, the sale of alcohol to minors.....

Timely delivery of brown envelopes with correct amount is how they stay in business. Lesson learned I hope.

There is a product for dogs called "Happy Wormer"; is it somehow used as a recreational drug?

Maybe it is actually called Happy Jack wormer.

Jeez, people so crazy.

My dog tells me the human equivalent is authentic vindaloo. The after effect is like looking down a shotgun barrel. 😀

Oops, five years, that's a long time. Most likely the customers will be off doing drugs somewhere else when it reopens.
