Operation Unit 238, tasked with protecting the city of Lamduan, successfully apprehended a drug gang following a high-speed car chase. The operation ended with two young men in custody and almost 70,000 methamphetamine pills confiscated.

 

Another suspect managed to escape during the pursuit yesterday. Anupong Suksomnit, the Provincial Police Region of Sisaket, revealed the details of the drug bust, which took place at 9.30pm yesterday.

 

Authorities from Operation Unit 238 had been tracking 31 year old Aphist and 26 year old Theerachai. The team seized 68,000 methamphetamine pills, a Honda car, and a notebook containing details of drug delivery locations and customer phone numbers.

 

The crackdown was initiated after investigators learned of a plan to transport drugs into Sisaket province. The officers followed a suspicious grey Honda Jazz, which sped away when they signalled it to stop for a search. The vehicle soon lost control and crashed, resulting in the capture of the two young men. However, another suspect managed to escape.
