Crime Son of Prominent MP Sparks Violence at Songkhla Polling Station
UPDATE Criminal case file against local politician submitted to Attorney-General over election day assault on border police Picture courtesy of Khaosod. The Crime Suppression Division (CSD) has officially handed over a substantial case file against local councillor Siradon Plai-duang, known as “Sor Golf” and nine others to the Attorney-General’s Office, in connection with the violent assault on a border patrol police officer at a polling station during recent elections. Pol Gen Thanayut Wuttijaratsathorn, Special Advisor to the Royal Thai Police, led the investigative team in submitting over 2,000 pages of evidence to Mr Sanjai Chanphong, Director-General of the Department of Criminal Litigation, at the Office of the Attorney-General on Ratchadaphisek Road, Bangkok. According to police, the evidence clearly indicates that Mr Siradon played a key role as the orchestrator of the attack, issuing instructions to associates who executed the assault, despite his absence from the scene. Authorities assert that the suspects worked in a coordinated fashion, amounting to a planned and deliberate attack on a public official performing official duties. “The case file strongly supports the charge of conspiring to assault a law enforcement officer in the line of duty,” Pol Gen Thanayut told reporters. “Although Sor Golf was not physically present at the polling station, his involvement as the mastermind is substantiated through witness testimonies and corroborating evidence.” One suspect remains at large, with police having already secured an arrest warrant. The fugitive is also implicated in a separate case involving illegal online gambling operations under the jurisdiction of the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau. To date, police have issued warrants for 20 individuals in the gambling case and have successfully apprehended six. Mr Sanjai Chanphong, speaking after receiving the case file, confirmed it would be promptly assigned to prosecutors for review ahead of the suspects’ detention deadline. He acknowledged the public interest surrounding the case and said the formation of a special working group would be considered if deemed necessary. The case, which has a statute of limitations of 10 years, continues to draw significant public and media attention amid wider concerns about electoral violence and political interference in law enforcement.

Why do most people NOT smoke weed even though it's legal?
Weed was used in "spiritual practices" ie ceremonies. People are misusing it today. It wasn't meant to be smoked daily just to get a buzz. -

Crime Over 1.3 Million Cartons of Illegal Cigarettes Seized - Fines Almost 1.8 Billion Baht
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. The Excise Department has revealed the results of a sweeping crackdown on illegal tobacco smuggling across Thailand’s eastern provinces, uncovering over 1.3 million cartons of untaxed cigarettes in the first eight months of the fiscal year. The estimated fines related to the seizures have now almost reached an astonishing 1.8 billion baht. Deputy Finance Minister Paopoom Rojanasakul announced the figures during a visit to the Eastern Excise Region 2 office. He noted that the illegal trade includes smuggling via both land and sea, with distribution occurring through various channels including private courier services and online platforms. One recent operation, triggered by a tip-off, led excise officers to a logistics hub in Si Racha district, Chonburi province. There, they discovered 22,760 cartons of untaxed cigarettes, with estimated fines totalling 21.4 million baht. The goods were immediately seized. Authorities have identified two primary smuggling routes: 1. By sea, using boats to bring contraband into coastal provinces such as Chonburi, Rayong, and Samut Prakan. 2. By land, through natural border crossings, particularly along the eastern frontier, with smugglers using vehicles to transport illegal goods into the kingdom. To combat the growing illicit trade, the Excise Department has ramped up collaboration with various agencies, including the Royal Thai Army, Royal Thai Police, Department of Provincial Administration, Customs Department, and the Thai Maritime Enforcement Command Centre. Partnerships with private logistics firms have also been strengthened to improve intelligence-sharing on smuggling networks and online sales activity. From October 2024 to May 2025, the Excise Department’s Region 2 and its local branches recorded a total of 2,898 enforcement cases, an increase of 13% compared to the previous year. These cases generated a combined estimated fine of over 1.8 billion baht. The majority of cases (61.5%) were tobacco-related, followed by alcohol-related offences (27.5%). Breakdown of Seized Items: • Tobacco: 1,783 cases, fines totalling over 1.79 billion baht, with 1,332,148 cartons of foreign cigarettes and 116,768 cartons of domestic cigarettes seized. • Alcohol: 799 cases, fines of 1.9 million baht, with over 15,000 litres of liquor seized. • Fuel and oil products: 28 cases, 166,000 litres confiscated. • Motorcycles: 87 cases, 215 bikes seized. • Playing cards: 32 cases, 2,775 decks seized. • Cars: 39 cases, 254 vehicles seized. • Miscellaneous goods: 130 cases, including various untaxed items. The Excise Department affirmed its commitment to tightening border controls and breaking illegal supply chains, particularly those exploiting online and courier-based distribution systems.
