Three police volunteers have been arrested for allegedly selling
methamphetamines they seized from drug suspects stopped at illegal roadside
checkpoints.
Banglamung police apprehended Somyos Jessana, 31; Suriya Hongsam, 28; and
Bunkitti Rattanasin, 43; March 28 in possession of 12.3 g. of crystal
methamphetamines and three mobile phones.
The trio worked as traffic volunteers out of Nongprue Police Station. They
allegedly collected drugs from youths they stopped at checkpoints, then
delivered them to customers in front of a Naklua futsal field.
Police said the volunteers confessed to erecting a checkpoint on Soi Khao
Noi without permission. Real police discovered the plot, however, and sent
an undercover informant with drugs through their checkpoint March 27.
Officers then followed the three until they tried to sell it.
The three were charged with possession of Class 1 narcotics with intent to
distribute.
