CHIANG RAI -- A police sergeant major said to be an "influential person" was among three people arrested with 180,000 methamphetamine pills after a long surveillance operation in northern Thailand.
Pol Lt Gen Thanitsak Theerasawat, chief of the Region 5 Provincial Police, said Pol Senior Sgt Maj Seri Duangchaiprasert, 49, who was attached to the provincial police headquarters, was caught along with Apinpat Jirapacharapiyavach, 28, and Itthipol Chanta, 41.
The three men were major drug dealers, Pol Lt Gen Thanitsak said. They smuggled drugs from neighbouring countries for sale in Chiang Rai and nearby provinces.
