Pai police arrest three French women found in possession of heroin

[AussieRules]

tricky amount, I doun't know it counts as personal or intent to supply, either is bad enough but the latter a whole pile of trouble to get themselves out of, they should have had the good sense to pay the on the spot fine

[hgma]

Double Ditched!!!

Snitch sale.

[baboon]

Drugs are for mugs!

Really? Tell that to cancer patients and the terminally ill.

[bendejo]

Even 40 years ago the slogan of the French hippies and backpackers on the Asian road was "for me, no problem." While nearly everyone else was doing hash and weed, they were doing morphine and heroin.

[jaidam]

Mesdames! You can easily buy heroin in Marseille or in Paris 10 or 18 arrondissement! Why put yourself at risk in Thailand where you go to prison and will be fleeced by thai-police?!

much cheaper

[Thechook]

These scrubbers look like they are. In thier 80's. Years of substance abuse I Think.

Enjoy the rest of your lives in a Thai prison ladies.

While the bill tribes continue to sell drugs to tourists every day.

Drive to the waterfall on a bike and notice how many locals try to sell you drugs along the way. Been that way for years.

They do that in Pai?

Do those heroin growers also get busted sometimes or are they allowed to grow it?

Pai is drug central for anything they can make or grow in Thailand or Myanmar.

The locals are VERY bold if you drive your scooter around outside the town and on the back roads, with the biggest concentration of them being on the way to the waterfall. It's a gauntlet of drug dealers, mostly female. They try to get your attention as you drive by.

Drugs are everywhere in Thailand. EVERYWHERE! You can get weed, opium, hash, yaabaa, and sometimes herion with very little effort.

Now i understand why my european neece went to Pai and rent a motobike there without license.

I thought all them backpackers go to Pai because it's in the lonely planet and a nice place in the mountains. Never heard of it being a drughole.

[catman20]

should be ashamed of their selves messing around with drugs at there ages

[IamNoone88]

They look like they could not care less.

[terminatorchiangmai]

Had my share of drugs in the past and loved them all.

Would do it again if i was living in a easy county in Europe.

For Thailand my only drugs are beer and whisky.

Pretty sure they where ratted out , but police should also arrest these hill tribes that sold the drugs to them.

[Jim walker]

Wisdom with age has obviously missed this three out. Ah well next time I am watching banged up abroad might recognise the stupid stars

Pai is (was) stunning, but the village has grown into a town with lights & all and, yes, you have the scum pushers up the hill. Why Prayut is not sorting this out I do not know.

They are looking a bit rough now so imagen what they will look like after a 10 stretch.if you are a farang and buy drugs in Thailand the dealer will make his bit then bung you into the laws hand for a few baht more.a vast amount of Thai hate farang and what we stand for.i don't even talk to Thais,even the missus just gets abuse from me 24hrs a day.i call Thailand 'yellow Africa' and I don't know what the <deleted> he'll I'm doing in such a place.

Cheap beer and ThB 1000 shags?

[Inepto Cracy]

We must really stop asking the question, " How stupid can you be ? ".

Some people are taking this question as a chalenge.

[dotpoom]

I am sometimes flummoxed by posts on this site. When a crime is reported you often get comments like it is the only country in the world where crime occurs...or like in this instance...where never before was there ever a person in the whole world ever caught in possession of drugs.

What sheltered lives must some people have lived.

[monty1412]

what gets me is the naivety... surely these folks are not new born babes when it comes to worldly experiences and they must or rather should have had some degree of cognisance that foreigners buying from thai/myanmar sources would have placed then directly in the firing line given the fact that it is more than credible that the MHS BIB were tipped off by the sellers in order to give the BIB a nice win and in turn leave their normal business alone..... I can just see the seller ribbing his hands with glee when they rolled up.. ahhhh here are my insurance policies.. Ill give em a great deal and then call it in and in return the normal bulk of my business is left unchallenged. In another world their would be allot of focus on how and from who police got the tip off but alas here this will not happen ..... these ladies allowed themselves to be pawns in the game....

[affen02]

Three sick middle aged ladies and some in here have already convicted them to life. Has it gone by you that more and more countries now recognizes drug use as a health problem and should be treated as so. We are with 30 or so gram not talking about a major smuggling operation but own use. Take down the dealers, and take them hard, but take a closer look at the photo from the police station and i think you will find that this three women need a hospital bed, not prison for life.

[SOTIRIOS]

....and the drug dealers get off scott-free ....???

555! Read LonelyPlanet: they write what is:
Drug Island
Drug Street and,.....Drug Village

[sanukjim]

I hope that like prison food.At their ages of 56,47,and 42,they can expect a royal decree early release at ages 71,,62 ,and 57.

Another stupid french citizen who believe all is possible in Thailand....

Welcome to Bangkok Hilton.....

"another stupid french citizen", couldn't think about anything more subtle?

Appeared to have been rode hard and put up wet.

Pai is very nice without drugs. There are lots of drugs there but many of the people there are having legit holidays. Your neice very well could have had a normal, drug free holiday.

It's not that everyone there is high, it's just that it is so available if you want it. I've been there a few times and have been offered more times than I can count.

[ThailandLOS]

For being 40+ heroin users, I would say they look fantastic. Heroin usually adds 15-20 years to the people's looks.

[Raymonddiaz]

They look English,or German,definitely not French.

Perhaps you should reflect upon that final thought and make some life changing decisions.

Thais hate farangs like you. They don't hate the rest of us. I agree with you, however that I also don't know why you are living here

[AlQaholic]

"Acting on a tip" who would be so vile as to rat on these harmless old ladies?
