BANGKOK: A Thai man who says he found 700,000 methamphetamine pills -- with a street value of nearly $6 million -- in a bush, drove the local price of the drug down after handing them out to his friends for free, police said Wednesday.
Prachaub Kanpecth, who normally collects rubbish and forest honey, was charged Tuesday with possession and intent to supply after police caught him with 500,000 meth tablets, known as yaba or “crazy drug”, at his home in central Ayutthaya province.
