PHUKET: -- Mass police raids of a government housing estate and homes in Baan Don in central Phuket’s Srisoonthorn area netted just two suspects yesterday (Nov 18).

A total of 81 Thalang Police officers and volunteers closed off streets and swooped through Baan Don and the Karn Keha public housing estate in Srisoonthorn, with door-to-door checks by police from 8am to 11am.

Police arrested Eakkachai Latae, 24, after he was found in possession of 1.5 litres of kratom juice and 1.25 litres of what officers called a “kratom cocktail”.

A 23-year-old male Myanmar national named by police only as “Mr Sau” was arrested after he was found illegally staying in the country.

Both men were taken to Thalang Police Station to be charged

“The raids were carried out after residents in these areas filed complaints about ongoing robberies, thefts and drug activities in their community,” said Lt Col Prasan Towon, who led the raids with Lt Col Sarayuth Meeboon.
