Thai Police Investigate Residence Hosting Nearly 100 Foreign Workers in Samut Sakhon

Samut Sakhon—At 10:30 AM, on January 5th, 2024, Mueang Samut Sakhon police officers and relevant agencies performed an inspection at a townhouse in Baan Suan Rangsi, Mueang, Samut Sakhon, after a local reported almost a hundred foreign workers staying inside the residence.

An unidentified local in Baan Suan Rangsi reported to Mueang Samut Sakhon that two buses transported 97 male foreign workers to a two-story house. The house was first rented a few months ago for foreign workers, with 10 to 20 individuals each time, to stay temporarily before being picked up by a van or a taxi to elsewhere, said one of the locals.

According to a report by the police, 97 of them held a valid passport with MOU contracts from an anonymous company in Pathum Thani.
