Krabi — On June 29th, 2024, Mueang Krabi police received a report of 26 recovering drug addicts escaping from a rehabilitation foundation in Mueang, Krabi.

According to police, the group allegedly stole a long-tail boat to escape to Mueang Krabi. Some were spotted walking on Hemthanon Road. After nearly an hour, police captured 11 of the escapees.

 

The police negotiated with the 11 individuals, who initially resisted returning to the foundation. Fifteen patients remain at large.

..it couldn't have been difficult to capture the fugitives! In the photo, you can see them walking quietly, neither hurrying nor running.

Hello Captain Obvious !

Glad I woke you up. Didn´t seem so obvious to you looking at your initial post.

26 from this drug rehab, 80 from another or the same place? (also on Krabi), I'm seeing a pattern here.
