Authorities mounted an operation after residents lodged complaints about repeated loud and unauthorised parties at a local hotel, in Nong Prue area.

 

Mr. Phatcharapach Sritanyanon, Chief of Bang Lamung District, ordered the inspection following growing concerns from locals. The operation was led by Mr. Nathaphop Yomchinda, Deputy District Chief, accompanied by Pol. Lt. Col. Jamlong Jinpala of Nong Prue Police Station, Mr. Kittisak Monkaew from Pong Subdistrict Municipality, and supported by over 50 personnel from immigration, tourist police, and local administration forces.

 

The raid targeted Pattaya Mansion, located at 70/2 Moo 6, Nong Prue. Authorities had first sent in undercover officers to observe the situation, where they confirmed a raucous poolside party was underway. More than 200 foreign tourists, predominantly Indian nationals, were found swimming and drinking by the poolside, with loud music blaring throughout the venue.

 

 

The coordinated raid caught many attendees by surprise, causing chaos as officers entered. Once the situation was under control, officials began verifying identity documents, particularly of young women allegedly hired to entertain guests. Drug tests were also conducted, and no illegal substances or underage individuals were found.

 

Following the inspection, authorities reviewed the hotel’s operating licences and documents from tour guides responsible for bringing tourists to the venue, to ensure all were in full legal compliance.

 

The raid came in response to a wave of complaints from nearby residents who claimed the noise from nightly parties had disrupted their lives for over a month. Locals reported that the music made it impossible to sleep, prompting swift and decisive action from the district office.

 

Officials have since issued a stern reminder that all entertainment venues must adhere to laws regulating noise levels and operating permits. Any violations will be met with legal proceedings as per the rule of law.

 

Authorities also stated that they will continue monitoring and enforcing compliance to ensure the peace and well-being of residents is maintained.

The Indians beating the Thais in making noise that kills your sleep. That means something.

 

Read that the Indian clubs on Walking Street set new levels of deafening noise.

 

Here in the village you might be the unlucky looser if there is some family party in the neighborhood with a stage built up.

Two story high speaker towers.

Windows shattering.

Until midnight is the norm.

It is and will always remain a "strange people".

Gosh!  Three departments, 50+ personnel, BMW smart cars, mounted cavalry, and a deflated blimp!

 

No drugs, no underage hookers, no visa violations, documents in order, no arrests.

 

Alternatively, they could have sent ONE police officer on a scooter to tell them to be quiet........

All pomp and circumstance for nothing.  It's an excuse to prove RTP/Army do work (occasionally) and do exist.

"Surprise raid?"  "Uncover"  it is no surprise it took the cops so long to get off their backsides and face some public... Uncover? Something as loud as a 747 is hardly hidden "...nightly parties had disrupted their lives for over a month. Locals reported that the music made it impossible to sleep, prompting swift and decisive action from the district office."

somehow those two don't quite mesh, unless you  consider one month to respond as "swift".

In a sane country, a cop on the beat would stop by and tell the party goers to turn the music down and keep it down. Do this on day one, not day 30. Don't need a whole raid and all that
