A Thai woman was arrested at Kansai International Airport in Osaka after she smuggled 6 million baht worth of cocaine into Japan.

 

Local news agencies in Japan recently reported that the 23 year old Thai woman, whose identity remains undisclosed, was arrested at Kansai Airport after 760 grammes of cocaine were found in her possession. The drugs were worth approximately 27 million yen, or around 8 million baht.

 

The suspect concealed the drugs in her backpack but could not evade the attention of officials. Japanese security officials became suspicious after noticing that she brought very few belongings with her, carrying only one backpack.

 

Officials examined her bag and found unusual stitching with yellow thread in a suspicious location. Channel 3 reported that the officials later discovered the cocaine hidden in a secret pocket crafted with the yellow thread.

The woman is said to travelled from Malaysia, transiting through China before arriving in Japan. Japanese police have not yet disclosed further details about the case, nor have they confirmed whether the woman admitted to her crime.

The police stated that further investigations are underway to identify other suspects involved.

In a related incident reported in July, a Thai woman named Phatcharin was arrested in Thailand for smuggling drugs into Japan via the same Kansai Airport. Japanese officials found Phatcharin and two other suspects hiding methamphetamine in their backpacks, but they were caught.

 

The three were deported to Thailand after serving their sentences in Japan. However, they are also set to face punishment in Thailand, prompting police to search for and arrest Phatcharin. No further details were provided about the other two suspects.

WorkPoint Today reported that Japan imposes severe penalties for drug-related offences. Anyone caught smuggling drugs into the country faces a prison sentence of at least 10 years and a fine of at least 3 million yen, or approximately 660,000 baht.

 

While drug smuggling into Japan is not commonly reported in Thai news, there were several cases of drug smuggling to South Korea. Recently, a Thai woman was sought by police after tricking an innocent man into delivering drugs to South Korea on her behalf.

Another Thai woman was arrested in Thailand for smuggling drugs into South Korea. She was initially caught in South Korea and imprisoned for three months before being deported and arrested again in Thailand.

She's in for a rough time, as Japanese prisons are just as famous as those for which her country is famous.

Chinese police in Japan?

As Japan is one of the most favorite destinations for Thais, she just made their arrival a bit more uncomfortable.

strange news: why import coke into Japan through TH? Fairytales about coke farms in TH are complete BS. Something is missing in this story. There are 1000s ways to smuggle blow into JP safer and cheaper than through LOS. 

 

PS: "she don't like, she don't like cocaine" 

Nazareth or Eric Clapton?

She's going to regret doing that.

Professionalism on display.  No need to grandstand with 20 people in the photo, no stupid pointing, shorts, sunglasses etc.

 Lol! There is apparently absolutely no truth in the rumour that there are Chinese police in every single country in the World.

That dog handler is prettier than the dog handler whose dog sniffed out the apple in my backpack, from 4 feet away, after I arrived at Newark International Airport, Newark, New Jersey, U.S. of A. 

 

Aaaannnnnddd, completely off the topic, with no relation to the topic at all ...  have you in Thailand heard all the furor about the, allegedly, pickup truck size drones, that have been flying over New Jersey, U.S. of A.???

The whole reason they put those full body scanners in was to catch people with drugs. 

Metal guns show up on the convention old  scanner.

You might say but but but what bout ghost guns made of plastic.

Welp.

You can't fire plastic bullets AFAIK so they'd show up on the old metal scanner too.

 

No more pussy cocaine, ladies. 🤑

If she had been caught in SIngapore then this could be a death penalty case.  

Being a drug mule is a bad idea.  I wonder how much she was paid.

She's the mule. Who is the kingpin? Catch him or her 

She managed to board planes in these different countries with it and nobody picked it up on a scanner ? 

Even just looking at the photo it looks like it would stick out on a machine like a sore thumb as it's so poorly hidden .

Also where did they get the value of 8 million bht as that works out at around 10500bht a gram 😳

She traveled via China, which is a huge source of illegal drugs. 

I think she has just ruined the next 10 years plus of her young life.

I was in BKK in March, and before checking out of my hotel room to head to the airport I threw away the paket of cannabis gummies that I had purchased. Around 16 hours later a sniffer dog walked straight past me at Heathrow.

Imprisoned in Korea and rearrested in Thailand. Double punishment????

Whatever it was, it was not worth it, as she is about to find out!

Yes, saw that on CNN -- why New Jersey of all places? Why so big and why so many?

I feel bad for some of the drug mules.   They have no idea what they are getting into. 

Anyone involved in the drugs  scene gets no sympathy from me 

Do the crime serve the time 😱

Yeah I can’t figure out how they’re getting their value how much it was and US dollars that’s less in a kilo and they’re figuring at 238,800 for less than a kilo I don’t think so TIT

Ay Chihuahua!

There are MEXICANS in China?

Or COLOMBIANS...?!??

Because I don't think China has enough arable farmland to grow coca plants.

They ain't even got enough to feed themselves.

Almost half of China is DRY as <deleted>. 🤣

 

Around 47% of China's land area is classified as arid or semi-arid.

Their prisons don't mix natives and aliens.

Instead, they are segregated each other; foreign convicts get a better treatment than their own country people.

Sounds strange, but true.
