Burma Bill Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago 3 hours ago, JoePai said: Has to be someone in the UK co-ordinating this, too many similarities Thanks and, yes, I agree. Interestingly, there have been several big cannabis busts by UK authorities at Manchester Airport in the north of England with many of the drug couriers arriving from Thailand. For reference: TWO drug mules were caught with 40kg of drugs in their suitcases as they were leaving Manchester Airport after an around-the-world flight.......After hours of air miles from Thailand and a connection in France, the duo were rumbled, and they later admitted a charge of being concerned in the fraudulent evasion of the prohibition on the importation of cannabis. https://www.warringtonguardian.co.uk/news/24775511.pair-manchester-airport-40kg-drugs-bangkok-flight/ Last year 26,924kg of cannabis was seized from around 750 smugglers flying into UK airports. This quantity is nearly five times more than the 5,609kg of cannabis seized for the whole of 2023, when 134 suspects were arrested.............In 2024, 430 suspects were arrested at Heathrow Airport where 14,617kg of cannabis was seized. The next worst affected airports were Manchester Airport, where around 135 arrests were made and 4,815kg of cannabis seized, and Birmingham Airport, where 40 arrests were made and 1,410kg cannabis seized..............Of the suspects, 460 were arrested having arrived from Thailand; https://www.nationalcrimeagency.gov.uk/news/smugglers-prevented-from-bringing-27-tonnes-of-cannabis-into-the-uk-in-2024#:~:text=In one case last year,its kind at Manchester Airport. 1

That's the end they need to find but from what I've seen the UK police are to busy arresting people for "hate speech" posts on social media. I am sort of surprised that the Brits did not make a deal with Singapore adn thai authorities to let 1 or 2 through. Just so they could follow the trail. Although I am sure once these guys see the inside of Smui prison they will realize the error of their ways. The other side of this is that life might have been so bad that prison is a releif. Anyway yes, it's a good thing these people are getting caught here in Singapore. They will have a shorter time in jail for these crimes in Singapore, but then they may have a shorter time on tis earth. 1

ronster Posted 8 hours ago Posted 8 hours ago Is this the third bunch of idiots to get caught in basically a week ? How dumb would you have to be to try this knowing 2 other groups got caught in consecutive days within a week 🙄🙈 Wonder how they arrested them at the airport as not loads of security people around in samui really so would be possible to do a runner , although guess still would have details when they checked in who they were. Wonder if they arrested them all waiting at the gate or at the point where they ask you to wait to see if your luggage appears on the screen.

TigerandDog Posted 8 hours ago Posted 8 hours ago My question is, as the 4 arrested are not minors, and they're obviously guilty, why are their faces not being shown.?

Next day on the minibus to PP got to talking about weed with some passengers. A young European fellow with a mullet said some Aussies at his hotel had some great stuff the night before, said they went into Thailand that morning, taking their stash with them. I flipped, it was back when T was originally PM (2003) and there was some gruesome police killings at the time relating to drugs, a shoot first and ask questions later thing. Mullet boy said "what do you expect them to do, throw it away?" uuuuummmmmmmmmmmmmm................ Assumption of intelligence is so passe. Knew a guy once back in the 90's who was in a Northern border town, Mai Hong Son or Pai maybe and a friendly Thai with a 4x4 asked if he wanted to join for a trip into the hills. Next thing he knows there's Burmese loading kilos of smack onto the jeep and he realises he's the fall guy for a cross-border smuggling trip. Terrified. Last I heard he was run over and killed by a minibus in Bangkok..

How incredibly stupid of them and the kingpin in the uk. Yes, if you are him reading this in the uk you are stupid. He probably doesn't care about the ones who get caught, but I should imagine some got through to give him a wild profit margin in the UK...
