The arrest was announced at a press conference at the Royal Thai Police headquarters by Pol General Chalermkiart Sriworakhan. 
Chalermkiart said police staked out an apartment on Soi Lard Pra Khao 37 in Lard Prao district at 10pm after learning that a major drug ring had been storing drugs there to distribute in Bang Khen, Chatuchak, Lard Prao, Khan Na Yao and Min Buri districts.
