Police in Muang district in the southern province told a press conference yesterday they arrested Kamol Samuhaseneeto, 38, and seized 113 grams of “ice”, found in capsules.
Following a tip-off, police raided his home in Krabi town and found the drug hidden in the ceiling.
Kamol confessed that he used to be a foreman at a construction site in Bangkok but he lost his job after the flooding late last year. So he decided to sell “ice”, ordering the drug from Bangkok to sell in Krabi. It was sent via parcel delivery on a public bus and he successfully did that once before being arrested the second time he ordered it.
Police accused him of possessing a Narcotic Drug Schedule 1 (crystal meth) for illegal sale.
