Thai police have arrested a Nigerian man accused of leading a major c@caine tr+fficking network that allegedly moved more than 380 million baht (about $11.5 million) through its accounts within a year.
The suspect, identified as Ikenna Patrick Azubuike, 36, was arrested late Tuesday night outside a condominium in Bangkok’s Yannawa district during an operation codenamed “Clipping the Wings of the Dodorima Boss.”
According to Thai authorities, Azubuike allegedly attempted to evade arrest by reversing his vehicle into officers trying to block his escape, inj¥ring several policemen.
Officers subsequently smashed the vehicle’s windows and disabled the engine before taking him into custody. Police said about 18 grammes of c@caine were recovered from the car.
