A Koh Samui bar owner has been found with 31 condoms of heroin inside his stomach, reported police Maj. Wacharawong Praiphan. The drugs were found after Pascal Maurice Pittet, 53, admitted himself into hospital complaining of sever abdominal pains, which had become unbearable over the weekend, said his doctor, Dulyakit Witthayachanyaphong.
Pittet had returned from Myanmar a few weeks ago, where it is alleged he brought the drugs from. He intended to fly to Switzerland next week, said police Col. Chaiyut Nilawong.
Bar owner will likely face charges of drug trafficking after being discharged from hospital, for which the maximum penalty is life imprisonment, said authorities.
