Report Heroin Smuggling Bust Uncovered at Phuket Airport
Picture courtesy of Phuket News In a dramatic sting operation, an American man has been arrested at Phuket International Airport, attempting to smuggle over six kilogrammes of heroin out of Thailand. The revelation, the result of a coordinated effort involving the Tourist Police, Customs, and narcotics officers, has sent shockwaves throughout the region. The suspect, identified as 61-year-old Tyler Trong Luong, was apprehended on July 16 while preparing to board a flight to Doha, with onward tickets to Brussels and France. Immigration authorities revealed that Luong had hidden 6.6kg of heroin in ten boxes of Coffee Mate creamer within his checked luggage. Following a tip-off from international law enforcement partners, Police Lieutenant General Saksira Pueak-am, head of the Tourist Police, ordered an urgent investigation. Teams from Tourist Police Divisions 2 and 3, along with Customs and Narcotics Suppression Units, diligently tracked Luong’s movements between July 14-16. As he checked in at the airport, officers swiftly acted. An X-ray of his luggage exposed suspicious contents, leading to the discovery of heroin wrapped in yellow tape, cleverly disguised in the creamer boxes. Luong allegedly stated that he was unaware of the drugs, claiming he was merely helping a French acquaintance by transporting the bags to France. The police investigation is now widening to uncover any other individuals involved in this brazen smuggling attempt. Luong faces serious charges under Thailand’s stringent narcotics laws. This operation highlights the critical cooperation between international and Thai authorities, showcasing their commitment to combatting drug trafficking. With the heroin's estimated street value exceeding 30 million Thai Baht, this arrest represents a significant victory against international narcotics networks.
