Police raid birthday party at Bangkok resort, arrest 28 people
Police raided a birthday party at a resort in Bangkok and arrested 28 people for violating emergency orders which prohibit gatherings of more than five people. Sutthisan police officers raided the resort in the Ratchadapisek area at around 3:30am today and arrested them for violating the disease control measures.
Bangkok is classified as a “dark red” zone under maximum control with a 9pm curfew, business closures, travel restrictions, and a ban on gatherings of more than five people.
Police received a call about a party held at the resort. Officers say 28 young people and teenagers were found mingling at room number 39 of the resort. Some reportedly told police they were celebrating a friend’s birthday. They were taken to the Sutthisan police station and charged with violating Section 9 of the Emergency Decree Act.
In Chon Buri yesterday, police arrested 18 people for attending a birthday party. Chon Buri is also a “dark red” province with tight restrictions. Police say they found a large amount of alcohol and 40 ecstasy tablets.
