    Aussie Arrested over 200 Million Baht Chemicals

    Aussie Arrested over 200 Million Baht Chemicals - Phuket Wan

    AN AUSTRALIAN man is being held in Phuket Prison over possession of chemicals that police say could have been sold for as much as 200 million baht.

    The man was arrested on Monday and refused bail. It is understood there was an outstanding warrant for his apprehension.

    The chemical involved is a base ingredient in the methamphetamine known in Thailand as ya-ice.

    Police named the man as Youssef David, 25. Officials at the jail said Mr David had had visitors from Australia.

    The jail, in Phuket City, was built to hold 700 but has more than 1100 inmates at present.

    I wonder if it was for personal use?
    Or maybe he is a dealer?

    Nope, not a daily threat in my life. I always read these to see why the person was arrested. Have yet to find one that I had much sympathy for.

    Irrelevant info! The guy has had his own cell.

    If he pleads guilty he will get six months .The guy is not playing ball so don't know what will happen.My mate interviewed him for two hours and said he cried like a baby! The prosecutor who drove down from BKK is a bit pissed too as he is being lent on from the Aussies.
