Crime Crackdown on Fake Medics: 8 Bogus Doctors, 3 Fake Pharmacists & TikToker Arrested
Picture courtesy of Amarin. Authorities have launched a major operation across several provinces to crack down on unlicensed medical practitioners, rogue clinics and illegal pharmacies, resulting in the arrest of 12 suspects, including a popular TikTok influencer who posed as a bone specialist. The coordinated raids, conducted between 21–26 May, followed a series of complaints filed by the Department of Health Service Support, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), provincial public health offices in Nonthaburi and Chonburi, and the Thai Traditional Medical Council. Members of the public also raised concerns about non-medical personnel providing cosmetic treatments and selling medication without licences. Raids Uncover a Network of Medical Fraud Investigations uncovered widespread malpractice involving individuals posing as doctors and pharmacists operating in Chonburi, Nonthaburi, and Bangkok. Authorities discovered unregistered clinics offering general treatment, vitamin injections, laser procedures, and traditional Thai massage therapies, all performed without proper licences. Key arrests include: • Chonburi Province: A 55-year-old man and a 52-year-old woman were caught practising general medicine without registration. Two women, aged 33 and 31, were charged for offering unauthorised vitamin injections at a beauty clinic. • Nonthaburi Province: A 40-year-old woman was arrested for administering injectable products at an unregistered clinic, while a 38-year-old woman was found operating an entirely fake medical facility. Both face charges for practising medicine without a licence. • Bangkok: A 44-year-old male TikTok influencer with over 180,000 followers was arrested for providing unauthorised physical therapy, including joint manipulation. He faces charges for unlicensed practice of Thai traditional medicine. Other arrests in Bangkok included a 33-year-old woman performing laser hair removal without medical credentials and a 30-year-old woman running an illegal clinic in the Bang Khun Thian area. In total, eight locations were raided, resulting in the arrest of nine individuals. Authorities confiscated 176 items, including unauthorised medicines, medical devices, cosmetics, and other evidence, all submitted to the Consumer Protection Police Division (CPPD) for further legal action. Illegal Pharmacies and Fake Cough Syrup Factories Targeted In a related operation, police and the FDA raided three pharmacies in Bangkok’s Chatuchak district on 21 May. These shops were linked to the illegal sale of cough syrup, commonly misused by youths in combination with kratom to create a narcotic cocktail known as “4X100”. Some pharmacies used incentive schemes encouraging repeat purchases, such as point-based VIP membership plans, to boost sales of the controlled substances. Authorities also found expired and substandard medications being sold to the public. Three unqualified individuals were arrested for practising pharmacy without a licence: a 27-year-old woman, a 27-year-old man, and a 35-year-old woman. Two of them had only completed secondary education and the third had only completed Year 9. None were qualified pharmacists and the pharmacies lacked any licensed professionals on-site. A total of 3,378 illegal or substandard pharmaceutical products were seized, including 317 bottles of counterfeit cough syrup. All evidence has been submitted to CPPD investigators. The crackdown follows earlier raids in January and April this year, which led to the closure of two illicit cough syrup factories. Authorities have pledged to continue pursuing those endangering public health through unauthorised medical and pharmaceutical practices. Adapted by Asean Now from Amarin 2025-05-29. -

Views on this latest action from Trump
I wish you lot would start your own forum with this mind numbing nonsense. Yes, I and others don’t have to look, but the algo on AN will chuck up this kind of tat. Kennedy and one or two exceptional others aside, all your presidents are bent; Trump is just all out in the open. You should get yourselves a monarchy. Polite suggestion to op. When starting a topic; have a header and half a paragraph, then point to link. -

Crime Gunmen Launch Attack on Narathiwat Police Station: One Officer Killed, One Seriously Injured
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. In a brazen and deadly assault on the morning of 28 May, a group of approximately ten armed insurgents launched a coordinated attack on Chanae Police Station in Narathiwat province, resulting in the death of one police officer and serious injury to another. The attack occurred at 08:40, when Pol. Sgt. Maj. Teerasak Ontong, commander of a security checkpoint outside Chanae Police Station, was overseeing eight officers on duty. The assailants, armed with military-grade weapons including AK-47s and M16 rifles, concealed themselves in an alley opposite the station before opening fire on the officers. The initial volley of gunfire injured Pol. Lance Corporal Jetsada Promrat, who was hit in the back with the bullet exiting through his abdomen. At the same time, Pol. Sgt. Abdulloh Makasang, stationed in a meeting room on the third floor of the police building, attempted to return fire to support his colleagues but was shot in the head by the attackers. Narathiwat District Chief Pichit Rungprasert quickly mobilised volunteer defence forces and coordinated with military and police reinforcements, who engaged the attackers in a firefight lasting more than 15 minutes. Once the gunfire ceased, police moved in to secure the area. Sgt. Abdulloh was found critically wounded and later succumbed to his injuries at Chanae Hospital. Lance Corporal Jetsada, after receiving emergency treatment, was transferred to Narathiwat Ratchanakarin Hospital for further care. Deputy Narathiwat Governor Wichan Chaisaithip, Deputy Provincial Police Commander Pol. Col. Direk Chomyong, explosive ordnance disposal teams and forensic officers inspected the scene. They found bullet holes in the ground floor windows of the complaints room and in the third-floor meeting room, along with pools of blood. Spent shell casings from M16 and AK-47 rifles, were discovered behind a nearby closed shop, believed to be the attackers’ firing position. Eyewitness reports confirmed that the gunmen had used their knowledge of the area to strike from behind the shop at a corner opposite the station. As Sgt. Abdulloh attempted to assist his fellow officers from above, he was fatally shot through the window. The insurgents fled the scene using their familiarity with the terrain, as reinforcements arrived and intensified the counterattack. Authorities are now continuing their investigation, and additional security has been deployed in the area. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-05-29.
