PHUKET TOWN: Police raided the newly-opened Planet Concert Hall disco in Phuket Town soon after midnight on November 29 and checked revelers for drugs and proper ID cards. Ten of the 486 people at the disco on Weerapong-Hongyok Rd tested positive when their urine samples turned purple and will be required to check with police in 10 days when the results of further tests are known. Another 23 did not have ID cards and were each fined 100 baht on the spot, said Phuket Town Police Station Superintendent Pol Col Paween Pongsirin.
