UDON THANI –  A cyber police operation in Udon Thani led to the arrest of an Australian man for allegedly purchasing weapon silencers online.

 

On 18th June, Police Colonel Apirak Champarsi, head of the Subdivision of Cyber Crime 3, executed a search warrant at a house in Ban Phue, Udon Thani, after uncovering a significant cache of firearm silencers allegedly ordered via an online platform.

 

During the search, officers encountered Aditya, the house's resident, and Mr Adam, an Australian national.

Authorities seized three black rifles, three black silencers, and approximately 3,500 rounds of unspecified ammunition.

 

The initial confession by the suspect admitted ownership of four silencers, purchased through an online retailer.

 

Subsequently, Aditya and Mr Adam were charged with "joint possession of firearms without local authority registration and possession of military equipment without permission from the Ministry of Defence, violating the Military Equipment Control Act of 1987, section 15".

 

They have been handed over to the Ban Theuem Police Station for legal proceedings.
