A police raid on a residence in Phuket City led to the arrest of three suspects and the seizure of 55.45 grams of crystal methamphetamine, police said.
Police and district officials in Phuket City arrested three suspects in a raid on a residence in Soi Phunphol 11 in Talad Nuea on Thursday, June 25, and seized 55.45 grams of crystal methamphetamine, according to the source report.
The suspects were identified as Mr. Kung, 52, from Phuket, Ms. Toey, 39, from Chiang Rai, and Mr. Chan, 36, from Phuket.
Authorities said they confiscated six bags of crystal methamphetamine, a digital scale, drug-use paraphernalia, modified straws used for portioning, and a wooden savings box. Investigators also seized three mobile phones — an iPhone 17 Pro Max, an iPhone 16 Pro Max and a Realme Note 60 — which the report said contained chat records on the LINE application linking the suspects through drug-related conversations.
All three were charged with jointly possessing crystal methamphetamine for sale without authorization. Ms. Toey and Mr. Chan were also charged with illegal drug use.
The suspects were taken to Phuket City Police Station for further investigation and prosecution.
