The Pattaya Immigration Police arrested a marijuana dealer and one of his customers during a sale. While patrolling the South Pattaya entertainment area on Soi 7, district officers noticed a Thai man passing a suspicious looking cigarette to a foreigner. Stopping them on a routine check, the guarded butt turned out to contain marijuana.

Officers searched suspect Amnat Bamrungkit and found 3 homemade cigarettes in his possession that contained the class 5 illegal drug marijuana. The police kept the cigarettes as evidence. The foreign customer was identified as a Norwegian man, Jan Erik Groulefe, 47, but the police didn’t find any illegal narcotics in his possession.

Police escorted the foreigner back to his hotel on Soi 8 and searched his room. They found 1 bag of dry marijuana on the desk beside the bed. The police charged both men with illegal drug possession and transferred them to the Soi 9 police station for processing.

Presume this is him...........hardly just a cigarette was it? Suggest you check with local police as to his fate. Tourist Police number.......038 425937. Should point out the Tourist Police office and Soi 9 Police Station are not in the same location.......but they might be able to point you in the right direction.
