thesetat2013 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 I wonder if they actually believe the ignorance story ( i didnt know it was there).

Popular Post bino Posted March 26, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted March 26, 2014 (edited) Must admit that I am confused by the picture accompanying this story. What does it have to do with a drug bust at the airport? Shouldn't the Chinese woman be sitting at a table, hiding her face, with the drugs in front of her and a bunch of smug looking cops pointing their fingers for the photo-op?

guig Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Reading the Bangkok Post this morning shows this photo concerning the ivory trade. Wrong photo! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses G. Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 I wonder if they actually believe the ignorance story Some people do get tricked into carrying drugs without knowing it. Serving time in a Thai prison (any prison) for the crime of being naive would be a terrible burden indeed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedtripler Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 3 kilos is a lot of "extra weight" even a fairly strong man would probably notice his bag is 3 kilos heavier never mind a little chinese woman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hgma Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Recently suggestions were made for a new visa approach (visa free) towards Chinese toursits/arrivals Surely this is an option for a new visa on arrival when drugdealing a longstay visa in bangkwang! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The police are hardly likely to disclose their follow up moves are they? Disclose their follow up moves? I thought, they always do that. Declare that they will arrest a named criminal 3 days before it happens. Announce that they will bust a joint a week before it happens. This is nice police.........Plenty of advance warning to the criminals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gandalf12 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Thailand should reinstate the death penalty for drug smuggling. Not many would be stupid if they did and it would certainly give a very positive image of Thailand to the rest of the world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maroon Watcher Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Maybe she had sampled too much of the product and thought she could fly away with it. How did they spot her - she had a broad grin on her face - (Disclaimer: the only ice I am an authority on is in my Coke) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
