Pattaya Pub Raid Uncovers Two Pubgoers on Illegal Drugs

Pattaya —

Two unidentified pubgoers were found to have taken illegal drugs during a Pattaya police raid on an entertainment venue early Wednesday morning, October 18th. The venue also did not have an operating license.

The 2 AM raid on the “Rave” nightclub located in South Pattaya in the Banglamung district, was carried out following a tip from concerned citizens. About 50 customers were found inside the venue, drinking and dancing, when the police arrived.

Pattaya police separated the customers into groups of males and females, before checking their ID cards as well as testing their urine for substance abuse. Two unidentified individuals were discovered to have consumed illegal drugs, while none were underage.

Following this discovery, police found a sachet with residue resembling a certain illicit substance in a garbage bin inside the men’s restroom. It was subsequently collected as evidence.

The two alleged substance abusers were taken to the Pattaya Police Station for legal proceedings. Police also arrested the venue operators and charged them for operating an entertainment venue without permission and selling alcohol past legal hours as venues are supposed to close between midnight to 2AM based on licensing and zoning.
