BANGKOK: Police say they have identified the mastermind of a fuel-smuggling operation after three modified fishing boats that escaped with 4-5 million baht in diesel were recaptured on Monday (June 17).
The captain of one boat hid a GPS navigation device under his bunk and used it to lead the two other boats out of police detention in Sattahip, Chonburi, Central Investigation Bureau (CIB) deputy chief Jaroonkiart Pankaew said on Tuesday.
