€˜Pregnant€™ transvestite arrested with drugs haul
Boonlua Chatree
Police have arrested the transvestite leader of a bizarre drugs gang whose members included two women and whose favored method of transporting their goods was to tape the packages to their stomachs to make it look as if they were pregnant.
The leader and two accomplices of the €œpregnant transvestite€ gang are paraded before the media.
A press briefing was held at Pattaya Police Station on December 28 during which station superintendent Pol Col Nopadol Wongnom and deputy superintendent of crime suppression Pol Lt Col. Supachat Piemmanat presented the three gang members to the media, along with a haul of the drugs they had been carrying.
The leader of the gang was identified as Taweesak Kammul, also known as May, an 18-year-old transvestite from Chiang Rai Province who was arrested at Suanthiwaree Village on the Thappraya Road Detour along with 1,956 pills of ya ba that were hidden in his underwear. Taweesak confessed that he had received the drugs from a dealer in Chiang Rai, and that he had taken ya ba with him on domestic airline flights many times. When he transported the drugs he was dressed in women€™s clothes and put the packages into his underwear, or wrapped them in cloth and taped them to his stomach. The drugs were sold in Pattaya City to gang members who then sold the pills to customers.
The other two accused were Miss Muay Chinsri, 39, of Nakornpanom Province, and Miss Wariya Chaikrao, 37, of Ratchaburi Province. A police undercover officer had arrested them in the street next to Pattaya Memorial Hospital. They had 1,200 tabs of ya ba that was placed in a plastic bag that was wrapped with tape, and were in a baht bus ready to deliver the drugs when they were arrested.
Police have extended their investigations to pursue other members of the gang, which they know is a large operator in the North.
