Two men held with speed pills
Cheewin Sattha

Two Burmese men have been charged with smuggling more than 5,000 speed pills
into Thailand via Pang Ma Pha district of this northern province.

Pang Ma Pha district officials led by assistant district chief Adul
Nuipakdi, apprehended Mok Mong Tai, 41, and Jai Nong, 21, and seized 5,400
amphetamine pills and a pistol from the two during a body search at Muang
Pam village in Tambon Tham Lod on Friday night.

The assistant district chief said he believed the two Shan men were about to
deliver the drugs to customers in Ban Wana Luang-reportedly a major centre
for drug abuse and prostitution among the Red Muser hilltribe people.
