Police escorted eight oil tanker crew members to Bangkok for further questioning after arresting them for allegedly stealing three confiscated vessels and smuggling oil. The suspects were apprehended and brought ashore in Songkhla, where initial investigations occurred.

 

Deputy Commissioner of the Central Investigation Bureau (CIB), Jaroonkiat Pankaew, led the operation, which saw the crew members transported to Wing 56 in Songkhla to board a flight to Bangkok. The flight was scheduled to arrive in the capital around 10pm yesterday, June 18. Upon arrival, Special Operations Unit Hanuman officers were expected to escort the suspects to the CIB for continued interrogation before their court appearance the next day.

 

The arrests stemmed from a case involving the theft of three oil tankers seized by police in an ongoing crackdown on illegal oil trading. The suspects had been captured at sea and were brought to shore with the stolen vessels. The operation involved multiple police units, including the Special Operations Unit Matchanu and the Marine Police, ensuring the safety and security of the suspects during their transfer, reported KhaoSod.
