Elderly Swiss man busted with gun at Phuket Airport

An 82-year-old Swiss man, Kurt Fritz Loliger, was arrested at Phuket International Airport on October 7 after a handgun was found in his luggage during a routine security check. The firearm, identified as a short-barrel ASTRA cal 6.35 a25 model, was detected at Gate 81 of the International Passenger Terminal around 8:30 pm. The airport’s X-ray image officer flagged the suspicious item, leading to Loliger’s detention by the Sakhu Police for further investigation. The incident has raised security concerns, with authorities emphasising strict firearm policies and legal consequences regardless of age or nationality.
