Thai police arrested a 54-year-old Israeli man in his apartment in Bangkok's Huai Khwang district on suspicion of luring women he met on a dating app, offering them drugged cake, and secretly filming them during sexual encounters. The arrest occurred Tuesday after police received a complaint. Officers found approximately 15 grams of methamphetamine, 50 packaging bags, a digital scale, and a cake tray in the apartment. A 44-year-old Thai woman was also arrested during the raid, though her specific charges and connection to the Israeli man's alleged crimes were not immediately clear. Police stated the suspect is believed to have been in Thailand illegally for 2,095 days, his visa having expired in 2021. Legal proceedings and further investigation are ongoing.
