Police arrested a Thai van driver after finding 43 undocumented Myanmar migrants crammed inside his vehicle following a chase in Kanchanaburi yesterday, August 5.
The operation took place at around 5am after police and other security agencies received intelligence that a smuggling network was transporting undocumented migrants through Kanchanaburi.
A search of the van found 43 Myanmar nationals, none of whom were able to produce passports or other travel documents.
Police charged Woraphan with assisting undocumented migrants to evade arrest by providing transportation and shelter.
In similar news, in a significant crackdown on illegal immigration, 200 Myanmar migrants were deported from Ranong as part of Thailand’s ongoing efforts to address the influx of undocumented workers.
