In a significant crackdown on illegal drug activities, Thai police apprehended three foreign nationals accused of selling processed cannabis and ketamine, seizing over 300 kilogrammes of evidence. The operation was led by Police Lieutenant General Siam Boonsom, Commander of the Metropolitan Police Bureau, with involvement from Police Major General Noppasil Poolasawat.

 

The suspects, identified as Le Quy Phuc, Nguyen Van Viet, and Mai Hung, were arrested on April 9 following a thorough investigation prompted by an informant's tip-off. The evidence seized included 305.2 kilogrammes of dried cannabis flowers and 450 grammes of ketamine. The cannabis was discovered packaged in plastic bags across two floors of a residence in Chok Chai 4, Bangkok, while the ketamine was concealed in a suspect's underwear.

 

Police Colonel Santi Kornkasem and crime suppression officers carried out the successful raid after securing a search warrant from the Criminal Court. The operation revealed that the trio was involved in illegal activities, leading to their arrest.

 

 

 

The suspects face multiple charges, including violating laws related to the handling and sale of controlled herbs for commercial purposes, as well as working without a permit or outside the legal boundaries established for foreign nationals. They are also charged with unauthorized possession of ketamine, a category two narcotic.

 

All suspects and confiscated materials have been transferred to the Crime Suppression Division for further legal proceedings. This bust highlights the ongoing efforts of Thai authorities to combat illegal drug trafficking and ensure compliance with the nation's drug laws, reported The Thaiger.

I don't understand the fascination with Ketamine.  Even some 25 years ago when I was much younger and dumber it was just never something I thought was enjoyable.

What is happening in Thailand now has happened in NZ for a few years now, the Chinese were invited to come to NZ.

The British Hong Kong police said the mafia would not come to NZ.

Well what a load of krup that was, the Mafia moved in big time and are responsible for infiltrating big bike gangs and selling Meth, the number one problem in NZ.

And now the Thai news reports nearly everyday of chinese assaults on people and drug busts are becoming a daily event, never saw this amount of crime in Thailand from Chinese tourists who were virtually on guided tours a few years ago, may Buddha help Thailand
