Always been the way, and always will be the way. Too much money at stake. They never seem to catch Mr Big in drug smuggling either !

Administering online gambling using 8 computers and 19 phones and they still needed 6,200,000 in cash, was that for the brown envelope, because it didn't work, wrong people came.

Surely it’ll take a lot of work accounting for all 5 million of it and from whom it came. Then all 4.5 million will have to be properly logged into evidence, waiting for when that 4 million will submitted as evidence in court, sure to be a long case in which the public will wonder just where that 3 million in cash came from. Eventually, the Policemen’s Benevolent Fund will be happy to receive this generous donation of 2 million baht. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
