Police look set to launch a massive crackdown on mafia gangs and foreign criminals hiding out in major tourist spots, following the arrest of a Russian mafia boss on Monday.
Pol Lt Gen Sakda Chuenpakdi, acting commander of the Immigration Bureau, stressed the need to crack down on foreign criminals posing as tourists in major tourist provinces, such as Pattaya, Samui Phuket, Krabi and Chiang Mai, according to Pol Col Chaiyos Warakchunkiat, chief of the Chon Buri immigration office.
Russian criminal gangs are the main target in Pattaya, where Russians make up a large proportion of tourists, Pol Col Chaiyos said. He said the crackdown will also target foreign criminals from other countries (danskerne står også på listen) not only Russians.
