"drug haul"

A dramatic vehicle chase in Phayao’s Dok Khamtai district on Sunday night resulted in police seizing 500,000 methamphetamine pills, a large amount of crystal meth, or “ice”, and ketamine from an ambulance that a drug-trafficking gang had used as a transportation cover-up for their operation.

Bangkok police have arrested six suspects and seized a large drug haul of 10 million made-in-Myanmar methamphetamine pills and 398 kilograms of crystal meth or “ice”. A haul that size led the national police chief, Pol General Chakthip Chaijinda, to hold a press conference on Friday at the Royal Thai Police headquarters to announce the seizure. The huge pile of drugs was put on display at the 10.

Drug hauls valued at more than Bt4 billion have been seized during the past three weeks, national police Commissioner Pol General Chakthip Chaijinda announced Thursday.
