Thailand will close legal loopholes relating to firearm classification and online sales in its gun control efforts, its police chief said yesterday, a day after a teenager was arrested following a deadly shooting at a mall that left two people dead.
There are more than 10,000 such legally imported guns in circulation in Thailand, and police will work with other government agencies to reclassify them as deadly firearms to block their import, Torsak said A Reuters search of e-commerce platforms Lazada and Shopee, among the most popular in South-east Asia, on Wednesday showed several types of blank guns for sale at prices starting at around 5,000 baht .Authorities can boost gun control by improving enforcement, including creating a faster mechanism to block websites and online services that offer to sell or modify firearms, said Krisanaphong.
Last October, a former policeman killed 35 people, including 22 children, at a nursery in northeastern Thailand. And in 2020, a soldier shot and killed at least 29 people in another northeastern Thai city.
