💨 Abstract

Thai gangs are increasingly recruiting British backpackers as drug mules, exploiting them with promises of free holidays and cash. This trend has raised alarm, with recent arrests of young Britons like Bella Culley and Charlotte Lee highlighting the danger. Since cannabis legalization in Thailand, gangs have seen massive profits, leading to aggressive recruitment drives. Authorities have seized tons of cannabis and arrested hundreds, including 50 Britons, in a joint operation.
