Crime Military and Excise Officials Seize Illegal Cigarettes in Sa Kaeo Raids
Picture courtesy of Kaoded. In a coordinated operation, military personnel from the Burapha Task Force, in collaboration with officials from the Sa Kaeo Excise Department, intercepted two separate attempts to smuggle contraband cigarettes destined for Bangkok. The raids were carried out in Ta Phraya and Aranyaprathet districts, resulting in multiple arrests and the seizure of large quantities of illegal goods. The first operation was conducted by the Ta Phraya Task Force Unit and Border Patrol Police Unit 12, acting on intelligence reports of illicit cigarette trafficking near Ban Noen Sombun, Ta Phraya Subdistrict. Upon arrival at the specified location, authorities apprehended two suspects in possession of a closed-bed vehicle suspected to be used for smuggling. A search of the vehicle revealed 42,810 packs of foreign cigarettes, concealed in the rear compartment. The suspects and evidence were handed over to the Ta Phraya Police Station for legal proceedings. Simultaneously, in Aranyaprathet District, the Khlong Hat Task Force Unit, paramilitary forces from Regiment 13, and officers from Khlong Hat Police Station and the Sa Kaeo Excise Department stopped another suspicious vehicle leaving the Khlong Wa Mai community in Tambon Thap Phrik. A thorough inspection uncovered 10 methamphetamine pills (classified as a Category 1 narcotic), as well as 46,000 packs of untaxed foreign cigarettes and counterfeit products. During interrogation, the driver admitted to being hired by Cambodian nationals to transport the contraband across the border via natural routes, with the goods intended for distribution in Bangkok. He claimed to receive 12,000 baht per delivery. However, the operation was thwarted before he could complete the delivery. The suspect and all seized items were transferred to Khlong Nam Sai Police Station in Aranyaprathet for further investigation and prosecution. Authorities confirmed that operations to combat smuggling and cross-border illegal trade will continue, with increased surveillance in high-risk border areas.

Crime Cambodian Men File Assault Complaint Against Influencer Group After Alleged Mall Attack
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. Two Cambodian nationals have filed a police complaint on 14 May, against a well-known Thai vocational-style influencer and his associates, accusing them of physically assaulting them inside a prominent shopping mall in the Samrong area. The victims insist they did nothing wrong and deny any links to a gang known as “BK Khmer”. The incident reportedly occurred around 16:00 on 11 May, on the fifth floor of the mall, where the two men were sitting peacefully outside a drinks shop. According to their account, the influencer, recognised online for his association with Thai vocational subculture, approached them with a group of five to six individuals. One of the victims, speaking at Samrong Nuea Police Station, claimed the group grabbed him by the neck, forced him into a chair, and repeatedly punched him in the face. His younger brother, who was with him, was allegedly slapped and kicked, suffering injuries in the process. “I asked them, ‘What did I do wrong?’” the older brother recounted. “One of them asked if we were part of the BK Khmer group. I said no, but they wouldn’t listen. They just kept beating me. Then they dragged me to a corner with no CCTV and asked if I was going to file a complaint. I said yes, I didn’t do anything wrong and don’t deserve this. After that, they disappeared.” He firmly denied any association with gangs or illegal activity, saying both he and his brother are legally employed construction workers in Thailand. “We were just sitting there, not causing any trouble. I want to take this all the way through legal channels. This shouldn’t happen to anyone,” he said. Police at Samrong Nuea Station have acknowledged receipt of the complaint and confirmed an investigation is now underway. The names of the suspects, including the influencer, have not yet been officially disclosed. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-05-15. -
