Busted ‘Ice Boy’ spills the beans

PATONG: Kathu Police Superintendent Col Grissak Songmoonnak and four Drug Suppression officers from Kathu police station arrested four ya bah (methamphetamine) and ya ice (crystal methamphetamine) dealers on Tuesday night.

Krisada “Boy” Seangrot, 19, from Nakhon Sri Thammarat, was arrested at 8.30 pm at the fountain in front of Jungceylon shopping center in a sting operation in which police arranged to buy 200 pills for 38,000 baht.

After a little persuasion, Boy agreed to call three dealers to join him in the dragnet, Col Grissak told the Gazette.

Boy was escorted from the shopping mall to Chalermpornlert House, where police arrested Thidawan “Gay” Bongben, her brother Saharat, and female colleague Phanomwan Sunma – all from Bangkok – for possession of 23 ya bah pills and three bags of high-grade ya ice.

All four arrested confessed to being dealers of Class 1 drugs, said Col Grissak.
