Metropolitan Police raided a rented house in Bang Sue, Bangkok, used as a drug den, successfully rescuing a 7-year-old boy from unsafe living conditions.
During the raid, officers arrested eight individuals, including the boy's mother and a nanny, and seized a quantity of methamphetamine, ketamine, and drug paraphernalia.
The operation was prompted by intelligence from activist 'Gun Jompalang', following a tip-off that the boy was living with drug users and allegedly serving customers.
The rescued boy has been placed under state protection and care by the Department of Children and Youth.
