The officer pretended that he was going to visit a relative who was serving a sentence at the prison,” he added.“The officer talked to him until Mr Atthichai revealed that he kept ya bah in his house in Mai Khao,” Mr Supoj explained.Mr Atthachai was taken to Thalang District Office for questioning.“He confessed that he sold ya bah to Mai Khao residents and people living in the area… We also found he was arrested for possession of and selling drugs in August last year. He posted bail and was still waiting for his case to be heard in court,” Mr Supoj said.Mr Atthachai was charged with possession of a Category 1 narcotic with intent to sell, he added.Source: http://www.phuketgazette.net/phuket_news/2013/Phuket-Prison-used-to-lure-meth-dealer-21218.html-- Phuket Gazette 2013-2013-06-01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangarang Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Cant believe he fell for something like that. You would think a dealer would be smart enough to make a sale at a decent distance away from any police station let alone prison.Although I picture the bust being something like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
