Recently 1.million baht was paid in Kid Chuap for a ypung guy caught with 100 ya bah.

i can not tell you about the bail system in thailand. but i'd like to point out the following aspect:

one of the major lessons i have learned so far while living in thailand is the fact, that is is way too easy here to have access to private loans. to get a loan might take your girlfriend maybe an our or two, but definitely not more.

in every thai household there are goods that can be used as a guarantee to get loans, e.g. gold necklace, gold ring, gold bracelet, motorcycle, car, land document, house document etc, in fact so many. given this situation, it would be very very easy for your girlfriend to get a loan for 30-50k thb at an interest rate she would not be suffering too much. this is very common all around thailand.

what i'm trying to say is if your girlfriend is asking you for cash then be alarmed right away. it is indeed very easy for her to help herself.

the other thing is never ever engage with people involved with drugs. first you are welcome to help, but later when times get rough, you might end up in big trouble, if you are not willing to meet their needs anymore .... and there will be many many needs to come ..... a barrel without ground.

as someone else proposed earlier here in this thread > get a new mobile number and a new girlfriend.
that may sound very harsh to you - but that will save you from a lot of trouble.
think twice - good luck to you.

Drugs like Yabba, meth or whatever the name you want to use is almost number 1 in crimes now within the public domain.
I'll assumed he has been charged.
If he is only charged with possession and a couple of tabs then he will eventually be fined in the court and released.
If he is charged with selling he will do time.
Either way the money being asked now is for the police and not for bail, courts will decide bail,
IMO don't pay anything as it is not going to get him out, as hard as it may seem for your girl and you just let him go through the process of the courts for what ever he was charged with.
If you or your GF start paying now it will never end, and, in the end the result through the courts will be the same.
His house has probably already been searched for other drugs and any meaningful collateral already confiscated.
I haven't mentioned the suspicion of any lawyer on your case trying to help with police before the court case. Just have representation at the court.
Just my opinion.
Good luck. Hope your relationship survives.

well he must already be in jail, the police charge you, take you to court where the court decides if you can have bail, if the court grants bail and you have the cash you can go home, and as I said if you don't have the cash there's a lady there that lends the bond and charges 3,000 a month on 30,000, simple. also if you don't take it you can't get bail again until the next hearing which is every 14 days. also and this is a guess , in the end he will be fined 30,000b anyway , so oddly enough theres a good chance you can say good bye to the cash. as said if you could afford to GIVE him the money then up to you

Thanks for all your replies. This is how it ended for now:

Gf and her uncle (dad's bro) first went to the police station this morning. Apparently, they took her dad, his gf and her kids last Friday because neighbors had concerns about the well-being of the kids. Police found the girl taking meth; dad didn't do anything (and, according to my gf, never had) but was busted anyways (my gf said it's not uncommon in Thailand that all at the scene get busted, especially when drugs are involved). Both were locked up at the station and not allowed any calls (according to my gf it was one of the worst police stations in Bangkok), then transfered to prison another day.

After picking up police report and his belongings from the police station, they went to some court to bail him out. 20k THB at the cashier.

Then on to the prison where she got him out this evening, to bring him home and beg him another time to leave that girl.

Ill transfer her some money to cover the rest of the month until her salary is out because that 20k was all she had saved. She'll send me the police report.

So Dads piss test was negative then ???

Trust that she will figure it out eventually. And if you do really wish for her happiness find a way to say it to her once. Try not to sound too judgmental. You can onky hope she listens. Or if she doesnt eventually she will. But dont keep telling her who to see or not to see, whi to hang out and not, etc. She will feel controlled and would probably rebel about it and engage more in behavior that can provoke you, if she us really doing it to spite you.

My 2cents worth, tell her once to show you care, after that let her be. Its her decision still. You can give an advice but remember that it is still her decision wether or not to take it.

you did see this thread is over a YEAR OLD ....
