Police have arrested the landlord of an apartment building in Klong Luang district in Pathum Thani, where six tigers were kept caged.
Police and environment officials found five males and one female tiger in three cages on the rooftop of the five-storey Ritthibundit Apartment block. They arrested Surasak Boonthienthong, 29, who presented himself as the landlord and owner of the tigers.
Wildlife officials in Ratchaburi have been contacted to take the tigers and check their DNA to
determine their origin. The arrest stems from a previous wildlife-trade case in Nonthaburi’s Bang Kluay district.
