Here is another example of Thailand attracting poor quality tourists.
A Russian DJ arrested with coke and ketamine.
You have to wonder why he isn’t in Russia fighting in the war?
These types come to Thailand, have no legal way to earn enough or get a work permit to be able to survive here.
So, they stupidly turn to breaking the law.
Get arrested, thrown in jail and deported back to Russia which will certainly garner attention and probably end himself on the front lines of the war.
SURAT THANI: A Russian man, 37, was arrested on Koh Phangan island in this southern province Saturday evening with packets of cocaine and ketamine.
Police said that the man, a well-known DJ on Koh Phangan and Koh Samui islands, was arrested in a sting operation at the Hua Thian pier in Tambon Ban Tai on Koh Phangan at 7pm on Saturday.
Police found with the foreigner packets containing 3.32 grammes of cocaine and 2.04g of ketamine, an electronic cigarette and 13,000 baht in cash.
Police quoted the Russian man as saying that he was a well-known DJ on both southern tourist islands and sourced narcotics from a Telegram chat app user named Coco Islands.
Police said in the sting operation they contacted the foreigner through the latter’s WhatsApp contact.
