THB.1-Million Cocaine Seized Police Arrest Nigerian in Drug Bust


Thai Metropolitan police busted and arrested a Nigerian and his Thai wife in Bangkok’s Ramkhamhang area. Argument led to confession that they got it for sale from African friends the south.

SAMUTPRAKARN – October 31, 2013 [PDN]: – Police Colonel Sanga Kanpirom, Director of detective department, (metropolitan police unit-4), was in a drug suppression operation. He held a press conference to announce that they had arrested 33-years old Nigerian, Mr. Shibuki Paul Aulloi or ‘Paul,’ and 33 years old, Mrs. Nittaya Embaki, living at house 64/1 moo-5, Bangpla, (Bangplee) in Bangkok, with 12.69 grams of ‘crystal-meth’ and 700-grams of cocaine, worth almost 1 million baht, plus a book for Kasikorn Thai bank account, a black luggage case and 2 phones.

Police Colonel Sanga said that this arrest, was related to the report from a spy, so the arresting team found that Mrs.Nittaya joined with Mr. Shibuki Paul Aulloi, to smuggle and sell crystal meth and cocaine , to both Thai s foreign teens, in the Ramkamhang region. They both lived in the third building of Sansabai Complex at Huamark, Bangkapi, in Bangkok, so police went to observe and found Mrs. Nittaya walking around the building, looking like she was high on drugs, so the police detained her to do a body search, and found that she had ‘crystal meth.’

She confessed that she got the drug from her husband, and then took out the ‘crystal meth’ hidden in her bra to show the police. However, her husband had just went out to deliver drugs at the top of Soi-Ramkamhang 60/4, so the police went to check and found the man walking there, so they arrested him and then came back to search their room. They found cocaine in the luggage and took it as evidence, then also found the back account showing that there was around 1-million Thai baht circulated within it, so the police liaised with the office of the Narcotic Control Board to seize the money in the bank account, which amounted to 380,000 Thai baht.

Mrs. Nittaya further stated to the police that she had been with ,’Paul’ for a year, but only just found that he was a drug dealer, so they quarrelled and then she used ‘crystal meth’ from her husband to lower her stress. It is believed that the man got the drug from his African friends living at a tourist location in the south, before re-selling it in the Ramkhamhang area of Bangkok, to both Thai and foreign teenagers.

And Paul's African friends in the Thai south got it from? Does anyone think that big Thais were involved in this dealing operation providing protection, money, weapons, customers...etc.

[CelticBhoy]

20 thousand quids worth. Hardly a bust. Downey Jnr's weekly intake.

[doremifasol]

They quarreled so she used ‘crystal meth’ from her husband to lower her stress.

Girl....... you are so pathetic!!!

[Andre0720]

Nigerian government will now report one more unemployed citizen....

[JoeThePoster]

Mrs. Nittaya further stated to the police that she had been with ,’Paul’ for a year, but only just found that he was a drug dealer, so they quarrelled and then she used ‘crystal meth’ from her husband to lower her stress.

What luck the police arrived the same day she found out about Paul's dirty business.

[coma]

Is there any of this lot not engaged in drugs or other illegal activity in Thailand ??

As for this as an excuse .... Mrs. Nittaya further stated to the police that she had been with ,’Paul’ for a year, but only just found that he was a drug dealer, so they quarrelled and then she used ‘crystal meth’ from her husband to lower her stress.

Rubbish !

[gemini81]

Its only ok to have meth or coke if you're rich Thai Chinese here, like Red Bull's heir.

[laurentbkk]

a book for Kasikorn Thai bank account, a black luggage case and 2 phones.

WOW ... a black luggage .... that's a scoop ...... that was for the fun , on the other hand .... well done police squad .

[harrycallahan]

Foreign teenagers? Must be doing middle school gap years now.

[maxman71]

Once this pathetic excuse for a human being gets out of the slammer, he'll "rehabilitate" himself by setting up an email scam business...Africa has been referred to as "The Lost Continent"...and for good reason.

[Baerboxer]

And Paul's African friends in the Thai south got it from? Does anyone think that big Thais were involved in this dealing operation providing protection, money, weapons, customers...etc.

No - its all these awful foreigners. See how this wicked Nigerian drug baron married an innocent Thai lady. When she found out about his vile trade she had to imbibe some of the product, purely out of stress.

Well done to the police for taking this pair of the streets. Will they go back through the supply chain for more arrests ? Now that would be worth some photo shoots.

[Jim walker]

Well done and congratulations to the BIB every little helps hope they get locked up for a long time

Of course. If you are rich Thai Chinese laws do not apply to you here. Anything and everything is o.k.

[sirchai]

Why does the Nigerian guy doesn't have a blue head? His own mistake that he got busted.-

[kurnell]

I still can't breathe after my last meeting with a Nigerian in soi 23

Here we go again, the Thai Visa detective squad are up to their theories after reading a little news story and taking it as all the actual facts in the case.

Well the big thai's protection didn't work so well this time did it.

Must be little thai's.

[FarangTalk]

Death row if he pleads innocent, commuted sentence to life if guilty.

Make no mistake; they will execute Africans, they did several Nigerians in one go by firing squad back in 2005.

Yet they still catch them on a regular basis and the jails are full of them. Go figure.

[Africanteacher]

'.....arrested 33-years old Nigerian, Mr. Shibuki Paul Aulloi or ‘Paul',....'

What? Mr. Paul Aulloi is AKA 'Paul'? I wouldn't have guessed.

Unless he was a lone shark (which is highly unbelievable), that's a very small amount of 'whitey stash' they got. All the same, well done. Now to get the obvious ones vending 'isht' in Nana, and giving us, Africans a bad name away from home.

[cbluck58]

I don't think that this guy would have been in a Farang Bike Club - yet again the anti-biker rants previously seen on this site are wrong.

Yes I know not all Swiss are bankers and not all Germans are hopping around in “Lederhosen.” However, how many of the Nigerians here are genuine tourists or honorable business people? I think it ist time for the Thai Embassies to do a little background check on Nigerian high quality tourists and guys in pimp outfits applying for business visas.

Not met many Nigerians overseas that weren't involved in anything illicit, tbh. Although Nigeria is an OPEC country with massive oil reserves, most of it's GDP comes from email scams and drug dealing.

I have not tried it myself, but I believe you get better results when you take crystal meth orally. Taking it in your bra probably does not have the same effect. Selling drugs looks like hard work, they can hardly stay awake.

[kennypowers]

Yes, because this is going to make a dent in the international narcotics trade. Getting these two off the streets will considerably reduce instances of drug taking in local communities. She's a meth head and he's a low level dealer!

The war on drugs. Keep going boys, you'll get there in the end! NOT.

[rucus7]

The Royal Thai police sure missed the mark with this photo op. Why those arrested cooperate is beyond me. Pointing at the drugs and money is not going to shorten your sentence. This picture is more in keeping with reality.

[phitsanulokjohn]

These Nigerians could teach the Thai's a lesson about greed.

[Emdog]

I often wonder why they go to such pains to give full address of folks they have picked up. Is it to encourage going to their now empty home and cleaning it out for them?

took meth to lower the stress levels

and then got so stressed that she was stressed (hooked in meth slang) before she knew it

Damn foreigner!

Nice journalism btw.

[happysanook]

Yea, great

The drug war is nothing more than an excuse to not do real police work.
