Kamphaeng Phet’s Central Prison conducted a surprise operation following the Department of Corrections’ policy to prevent the smuggling of contraband into the inmates’ quarters. Chathip Rujonseree, the Governor of Kamphaeng Phet Province, today chaired the launch of this special inspection operation to safeguard against the illicit introduction of prohibited items into the prison cells.

 

The operation was a coordinated effort involving Thitiphan Manujuntarat, the Warden of Kamphaeng Phet Central Prison, local police, the Provincial Internal Security Operations Command, the Territorial Defense Volunteers, the Office of Narcotics Control Board Region 6, and prison personnel. They undertook this special search to enforce the Department of Corrections’ mandate and to ensure that prohibited and unauthorised items were not being smuggled into the sleeping quarters.

 

The search operation extended across both male and female sections of the prison. Remarkably, the thorough inspection revealed no contraband. Additionally, a random drug-testing exercise was carried out on some inmates to detect any drug contamination. The results were equally positive, as no traces of narcotics were found in the tests, reported KhaoSod.

All squeaky clean and above board then.

They used the same guys that found no evidence of prostitution in Pattaya! Wonder what their next job will be? 

I guess the jungle drums worked.

Any prison search  anywhere in the world that is done with earnestness and skill is going to find contraband. So if they didn't find any it's because they did not want to. More likely they found plenty of it but they're reporting that they found none. As you get older and wiser I think that your BS meter improves, and you're able to determine nonsense when you hear it.
