The public protection services had already issued warnings for them to clear out at the end of last year but to no avail. They also said that some of the drugs being sold by the vendors could be harmful and their type of business could affect Thailand’s reputation.

The police have charged the vendors with possession of and distributing drugs without a license as well as selling restricted obscene items. The large haul was displayed in front of Lumphini police station.
