Coss Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Four border patrol policemen were given a death sentence Wednesday for possessing a large number of metamphetamine tablets with the intent to sell. They were arrested in a sting operation three years ago. The Criminal Court handed down the maximum penalty to the four Chiang Mai-based officers, overruling a legal condition that subjects convicts to a threefold sentence. The convictions over the use and forgery of documents, and the unauthorised possession of firearms were also overruled by the death sentence. The four convicts are Senior Sgt-Major Phoomiphiphat Thammasuhiran, Senior Sgt-Major Wiroj Moolphrao, Sgt-Major Tawan Kosutho and Sgt-Major Suthas Saipanya. In the sting operation, they sold 150,000 tablets to an undercover agent for Bt11.25 billion. The court dismissed their claim that they were investigating a drug-related case and that they had been tortured into making a confession.

bust Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 Any chance their collegues were pissed on not being cut into the deal. Pisses me off that the police will do drug deals with the DKBA but harrass the IDP's in the area. Hang the fuckers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khunsanuk Posted February 25, 2011 Report Share Posted February 25, 2011 Hi, "Almost 100 baht per pill!" More like 75,000 Baht per pill, so that is almost certainly a typo. You would also probably need a large truck to transport 11.25 billion Baht Sanuk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
