Thai immigration officers have detained a 40-year-old French man wanted by Belgium under an Interpol Red Notice for alleged drug trafficking. The suspect, referred to as Brahim, was traced to Patong, Phuket, after receiving an Interpol alert. Thai authorities revoked his permission to remain in the country under Section 12(7) of the Immigration Act 1979, citing him as a threat to public safety or national security.
Brahim was identified through a comparison of his documents with Interpol's information and was subsequently taken into custody for further proceedings. Immigration officials urged the public to report any information about foreigners suspected of breaking Thai laws.
