Early this morning morning saw the seizure of over 12 million methamphetamine pills by military personnel in the Wiang Haeng district of Chiang Mai.
The Pha Muang task force’s rangers of the Royal Thai Army discovered two suspicious pickup trucks parked in a garden along the Ban Mai Muang Jod road in the Piang Luang Tambon at around 5am, today, October 17.
A group of 15 to 20 individuals were observed loading bags onto the two vehicles. However, as the soldiers approached, the group dispersed hastily, leaving the fully loaded vehicles behind.
Upon inspection, the vehicles were found to contain 61 rucksacks, each packed with 200,000 methamphetamine pills. The total count of seized pills was 12.2 million.
A suspect was apprehended in the vicinity of the scene, but the rest of the group remains at large.
