Two Pakistan drug traffickers nabbed at Suvarnabhumi Airport

BANGKOK (TNA) – Thai customs officials on Monday arrested two Pakistani nationals for smuggling 1.4 kilogrammes of heroin into the kingdom.

Ahmed Sted Asad, 46 and Iqeal Muhammad Abid, 44 were detained at Suvarnabhumi Airport, while waiting for a flight transfer to Thailand's Andaman island resort of Phuket.

Thai authorities had received information that persons from Pakistan would attempt to smuggle narcotics from Karachi into Thailand, so they conducted body searches on the two suspects.

X-ray detectors indicated suspicious objects in their stomachs, so they were given laxatives.

Packages of heroin weighing 1.43 kgs and worth some Bt4.8 million (over US$136,000) were found.

The duo confessed that they had been hired to smuggle heroin into Thailand ten times. Each time, they were paid US$1,000. They were on their way to deliver the drugs to a customer in Phuket, but refused to identify the customer.

Customs officials transferred them to the Narcotics Suppression Bureau for further investigation. (TNA)

Refusing to name the recipient? That should be worth another 5 years (or more) hard time no doubt.

RTP could milk a bull to make a latte - if they had an urge for one.

This just means that the recipient is well connected.
