Police and TFDA officials seize cannabis jellies from a Bangkok shop
Police and TFDA officials raided a Bangkok shop, seizing 90 cannabis-infused jellies that lacked proper Thai labels and TFDA registration.
The raid was prompted by a severe incident where a family experienced convulsions and lost consciousness after consuming cannabis jelly purchased from the same establishment.
The seized jellies, packaged to resemble children's sweets, are undergoing tests to confirm THC and CBD content, while an employee faces initial charges for selling herbs without permission.

Her initial tasks include hosting a new government TV program, actively debunking political rumors and false accusations on social media, and warning against the spread of fake news to restore public trust.
