On March 29, Bangkok Post reported that two Myanmar nationals have been arrested in the Thai-Myanmar border town of Mae Sot in Tak province with an anti-drone jamming device that was reportedly intended for use in the conflict-torn neighbouring country.
The arrests followed a tip-off about an attempt to have the device delivered to an address in Myanmar, said Col Nattakorn Rueantip, commander of the Ratchamanu Task Force.
Authorities set up a sting and contacted the suspects, whose names appeared as the senders. They were asked to contact the delivery service to retrieve the package due to transport problems, he said. When the duo arrived, police asked to inspect the package, which was found to contain the device.
