Thaivisa News Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Bangkok:- Metropolitan police have arrested a Nigerian man at his Bangkok rented room for having allegedly sold crystal methamphetamine and cocaine. Onyejiekwe Morgan Chinemeremm, 29, was arrested in a sting operation, Metropolitan Police Commissioner Pol Lt Gen Sriwarah Rangsitpramkul and Pol Col Suthep Chanasit, an inspector of the Metropolitan Police Division 4, told a press conference at 4 pm Tuesday. Presented at the press conference were 31.47 grams of crystal methamphetamine or “ice” and 889.63 grams of cocaine. Suthep said the Nigerian man was arrested at the stairway between the eighth and ninth floors of HR Residence in Bang Kapi district. He was charged with having crystal methamphetamine and cocaine in possession with intent to sell. Suthep said police received tips-off that Nigerian men, who live on the ninth floor of Building 17 of the HR Residence, have been selling drug by hiring a Thai man, identified only as “M” as their drug delivery boy. As a result, Suthep planned the sting operation and had a police informant contact M, asking to buy the crystal meth and cocaine from him. M in turn informed the Nigerian men that his customer would like to buy 30 grams of crystal meth and 200 grams of cocaine for Bt460,000, Suthep said. M led undercover policemen to the Nigerian men’s room to buy the drug and police found two Nigerians in the room. Once, the police identified themselves, the two Nigerians ran out of the room. One fled the scene while Chinemeremm was arrested at the stairway. Chinemeremm admitted that he and his friend smuggled in the drug to sell mostly via post parcels.

zaphod reborn Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Nice work, but he this is only one out of hundreds. It doesn't take a sophisticated sting like this to find them. Just patrol Nana properly and you can round up dozens every night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALLSEEINGEYE Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 you notice they say metro police made the arrest. There is no chance in hell the Lumpini BIB would arrest one of their protected sponsors (partners or whatever you want to call it). Funny how you don't see any of these boys selling their wares East of Asoke. Come on PM this would be an easy clean up, get on it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomacht8 Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 ......police found two Nigerians in the room. Once, the police identified themselves, the two Nigerians ran out of the room. One fled the scene while Chinemeremm was arrested at the stairway.How could easily escape one drug dealer?From the ninth floor just running down the stairs?Sounds a bit stupid, like unprofessional arrest tactic.

casindonet Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Bet that he's happy for not being caught in Indonesia, Malaysia or Singapore......in Thailand he can still continue his business in jail with the protection from the wardens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangkok Barry Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 "Once, the police identified themselves, the two Nigerians ran out of the room." Classic. They didn't think of standing in front of the door to prevent anyone escaping? Just brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre0720 Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Very unfortunate for this Nigerian... Has to revert to selling drugs while waiting for someone to help him transfer his 20 million dollars..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Water Buffalo Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Whats new? And yet these Nigerians are allowed into the country? Really cannot understand the Immigration Authorities. I studied at university in Bangkok with several Nigerians. Some lovely decent people, others not so much. Why should they all be punished? Maybe all the westerners should get kicked out when one commits a crime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredNL Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 (edited) My wife has bought a apartment in Lumpini Bang Kapi a few years ago. The contract says that she is NOT allowed to rent it out to any Africans. Their is a 100,000 THB/day penalty on it. Lumpini is not the only one. Also in the apartment building (Din Daeng) where we are living has similar rules. Owner's commities are allowed to set up rules that limit rights. That this Nigerian was arrested is probably because he was in some other's (officer's) protected area. Edited April 29, 2015 by FredNL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that the price of cocaine these days? 2300 a gram is practically retail. So a very bad deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiangmaiRob Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 If found guilty, and he probably will be, just send the scum to Indonesia for sentencing ... along with all the other dealers/traffickers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cypress Hill Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Nothing like a news item on blacks to bring out the bigoted, hang-'em-high brigade. All you'll get from the same people when some low-life white guy gets caught ripping off pensioners from a boiler room or with a repository of kiddie porn on his computer is a few choice insults and a chorus of "deport and blacklist him". I think most expats are ok folk but, my word, there are some real nasty supremacists in the ranks - especially on here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot say the same for the extreme racists I have had the displeasure to meet. Without exception they have been uninteresting imbeciles.
