Re: 4 French Arrested for Using Drugs in Siem Reap
It was more than just a joint or two. The copper leading the raid showed me a video of when they searched the owner's house, apparently they were dealing a fair bit.soup wrote: ↑Fri Dec 22, 2017 3:20 pmIt's not the weed they're worried about, it's the meth and the X.AndyKK wrote: ↑Fri Dec 22, 2017 12:24 pmhanno wrote: ↑Fri Dec 22, 2017 12:19 pmDoesn't happen often but I agree with chorlton. A few years ago they raided one of the Happy Pizza places in Siem Reap and everyone inside got arrested, happy or not. I have always been wary of places were people light up, way to easy for the police to target everybody around for a shake-down.
I thought people went to eat Pizza, not to engage in joint smoking. Are the "happy pizza's" legal?
Moreover, the town of SR is much smaller than PP so the coppers have less money to make and less crime to focus on. Chasing small-time users are what they have to do.

Re: 4 French Arrested for Using Drugs in Siem Reap
I am not worried about a drug test as I do not do drugs. But having your face plastered all over the press getting caught up in a drug raid might not be so good career-wise.Barang_doa_slae wrote: ↑Fri Dec 22, 2017 3:21 pm No evidence but being piss tested in a touristic establishment police raid? Haven’t you been local long enough to shrug off at the possibility? Seems to me that not only occurrences are as rare as tigers sightings, walking out of it should be basic top bloque expat level.

Re: 4 French Arrested for Using Drugs in Siem Reap
these are REALLY small time dealers
now these guys were dealers;
As i understand it the Mexican cartel has already moved into Australia and is dealing coke there were it goes for upwards of $50,000 /kilo wholesale ( compare that to 20 in the states) and on the street, $200-250/grm!!
barley enough for a good time party for all of them18 packages of crystal methamphetamine weighing 3.46 grams, one package of dried marijuana weighing 12.34 grams, one package of ecstasy weighing 46.5 grams, a drug scale and other drug related materials.
now these guys were dealers;

AUSTRALIA: Australia has seized more than Aus$1.0 billion (B289.40 billion) of crystal meth its biggest ever bust of the highly-addictive drug, police said today (Dec 22).
Commonly known as “ice”, the massive 1.2 ton haul was intercepted after being offloaded from a boat, the Valkoista, which authorities believe came from China.
Australia has the world’s highest per capita consumption of crystal meth and the country has become an increasingly attractive destination for drug-smugglers, with street prices soaring.
Much of the ice hitting its streets comes from China and the Golden Triangle region where the borders of Myanmar, Thailand and Laos meet.

Re: 4 French Arrested for Using Drugs in Siem Reap
It's pretty much impossible to get coke into Australia, which is why they have a terrible meth problem. In the UK because we have easy access to good quality coke we don't really see meth.phuketrichard wrote: ↑Fri Dec 22, 2017 4:50 pm these are REALLY small time dealersbarley enough for a good time party for all of them18 packages of crystal methamphetamine weighing 3.46 grams, one package of dried marijuana weighing 12.34 grams, one package of ecstasy weighing 46.5 grams, a drug scale and other drug related materials.

buy 1 kilo $50,000 grand, put a 50% hit on it, make a ton of $$
Bali decades ago was the transshipment point for coke from Amsterdam and the states, for a long time

Cocaine is smuggled across the Pacific into Australia now. There have been seem huge busts recently. 500kgs last Xmas and 2 x 1.5 tonne shipments seized in the Pacific on the way to Australia this year.
