webfact Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Fourteen Thais who sneaked across border to avoid quarantine bailed at 40K each by court Picture: 77kaoded Thai media 77khaoded reported that 14 Thais were arrested on Tuesday sneaking across the Cambodian border at a natural point of entry. They are all workers at a casino in Poi Pet and wanted to avoid having to do 14 day state quarantine. The workers said they had been in Cambodia for 2 months and wanted to go home and visit relatives. Picture: 77kaoded The provincial Sa Kaeo court bailed them all for 40,000 baht each after they were charged under the Covid-19 regulations. Sources suggested they are all connected to an influential gambling figure called "Sia Po" who allegedly tried to get the authorities to turn a blind eye to allowing the workers not to quarantine. This request was rejected. The workers have now agreed to go into quarantine.
