A 43-year-old Swedish man was arrested yesterday, 25 December 2022 on Pattaya Beach for possession of crystal meth and a loaded gun,and taking illegal drugs.
According to The Thaiger, the Pattaya police were suspicious of the foreign man’s backpacks before finding a Colt Defender .380 gun and a bag of crystal meth.
In addition, a report said that he was tested positive for an unconfirmed drug.
The Swedish man has now been charged with carrying a gun in public, possession of an unregistered firearm and ammunition, and taking illegal drugs.
It only has been a week before his case as he entered Thailand on 18 December 2022.
That’s awful. He’s carrying a concealed firearm and drugs ! Hope he enjoys his stay in the Thai prison. Cold showers and lots of new friends.
