An 37 year-old Egyptian man has been arrested for mafia ties and running a protection racket in Bangkok. Police said the man is an alleged drug dealer and had alleged ties to a foreign mafia gang in Bangkok.
An investigation revealed the man is connected to the sale of Narcotics and is tied to a mafia gang. The gang collected money from foreigners in exchange for alleged protection. The group claimed they could provide safety to foreigners against people the police couldn’t catch or and or those under their protection.
Foreigners payed monthly and those who refused faced threats and some were even harmed by the foreign gang.
The mafia gang would also visit entertainment venues in Bangkok with the goal to sell drugs to foreigners. Police checked Mohamed’s visa history and discovered he had overstayed in Thailand for 1,772 days.
The suspect admitted that he had previously been in legal trouble for selling crystal meth in 2017. He has since been arrested and is waiting for prosecution.

They could have deported him right away when he got arrested for selling drugs in 2017. Same problem as in Cambodia, they should get rid of those fuckers first chance they have.

Missed opportunity. Surely Thai law enforcement will learn from this mistake, right?
Re: Egyptian Busted for Running Foreigner Protection Racket and Selling Drugs
Deporting is the easy way out for this guy. A good few years in the BKK Hilton is a better option, he may learn the error of his ways, if he survives.

He will end up in the IDC and spend a couple of years there with the four gay Egyptians who run the cell on the first floor as the Egyptian embassy don't bother to help with deportation.
