My neighbor told me,Claudio was arrested by the tourist police last night, he's been running www.thaivisaservice.com for years, is this a sign of a new crackdown?

That doesn't sound good I hope his visa was in order.

Nice to see the Tourist police are entering into the festive spirit.

Could have been anything and not neccesarily releated to his visa run service. Why do you think it may be part of a crackdown?

Geez, that is TOTALLY spurious, erroneous, err, (lemme use a smaller word for the T/V readers ; how about BAD info.

I didn't know the company but a quick Google found it. When I called, HE (as in the Claudio referenced in the O/P's post) answered the business’s mobile number. When I mentioned it was on Thai Visa that he'd been arrested he laughed out loud.

Anyway, it took all of 10 seconds on Google and a 3 baht mobile call to prove this post abso-tively, posi-lutely wrong.

NOTE 2 MODZ; perhaps it might be better to just delete this mis-informative post.

As this is all hearsay at the moment and not fact I will close it.

If anyone can come up with and factual information it may be re opened.

CLOSED.
