According to a recent report from The Thaiger, officials from the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau (CCIB) in Thailand raided two large e-cigarette warehouses in Pathum Thani Province, seizing 183,350 disposable e-cigarettes worth over 36 million Thai baht (approximately 1.02 million US dollars).
According to reports, 32-year-old warehouse manager Nopphorn, along with five other workers, have been arrested. The raid was initiated based on an early investigation by the CCIB First Division in March, when authorities discovered a large-scale sale of e-cigarettes through a Facebook page in the Bang Kapi district of Bangkok.
According to Thailand's Customs Act of 2017, individuals involved in possessing or accepting e-cigarettes may face charges, including penalties for concealing, distributing, aiding in sales, purchasing, or receiving such items.
According to reports, those involved may face up to five years in prison, a fine up to four times the value of the goods (including tariffs), or a combination of both.
