A Nigerian drug trafficker's life is in danger after he was busted by Thailand's security operatives.
Emmanuel Okwuduli Ilichukwu arrested in Thailand
Thai police working with the US Drug Enforcement agency have
arrested a Nigerian man who they say is an international drug dealer in
cocaine.
Emmanuel Okwuduli Ilichukwu was arrested in Suksawat Soi 26 on two warrants yesterday.
A force led by deputy tourist police commissioner Surachet Hakpal
went to his property where they found a quantity of ganja in a food
cupboard.
Surachet told the media that the Thais had been working with the
DEA to arrest the Nigerian. He had been on their radar but managed to
avoid capture before.
He had made frequent trips from Bangkok to Nigeria and was involved
in packaging cocaine in plastic and hiding it in electrical appliances.
The drugs found their way to Australia and New Zealand.
He was using Bangkok as a base and also dealing drugs in the Thai capital, reported Thai Rath.
He has been charged with possession and intent to distribute a class 2 drug (cocaine).
