"Police bust"

Bangkok police have called on the Office of the Narcotics Control Board to help find the source of the narcotics that the 28 suspects allegedly used at a party on Saturday, Wang Thong Lang deputy superintendent Pol Lt-Colonel Chaowarit Ngernchalard said on Sunday.

Thai police have arrested a Nigerian drug suspect and three Thai alleged accomplices along with a large amount of narcotics in Bangkok and Nonthaburi.

Police have arrested a group of 19 Thais and are hunting for a Taiwanese national for alleged involvement in operating a call centre that tricked a retired police major to deposit Bt1.5 million in their bank account.

The Police Immigration Bureau has announced a major bust of a transnational call-centre scam gang that saw 19 Chinese and 25 Taiwanese suspects arrested from several rented houses in Bangkok and nearby provinces as well as Pattaya City.
