28 home-made guns, more than 1,500 shots, and other products seized in Muang region of Chachoengsao state, along with a young brother, have been taken and sold for making and selling guns online.
Sarawut Wanit, 23, of Bang Khla district, and his 17- year- old brother ( name withheld ), were arrested during a police raid on a commercial building in tambon Bang Phra of Muang district, Pol Maj Gen Theeradet Thumsuthee, investigative commander of the Metropolitan Police Bureau ( MPB), said on Thursday.
Mr. Sarawut was originally wanted because he evaded military recruitment on an arrest permit issued by the Chachoengsao Provincial Court.
During the attack on Wednesday, authorities seized 28 residence- made weapons, 1, 559 rounds of ammunition, 28 weapons barrels and other things.
The boys are accused of colluding, making, repairing, and modifying guns and ammunition for selling without consent, and possessing them without consent.
Police were called to a Facebook page called Khlang Saeng Dek Chang (technical college students ‘ arsenal ), according to Pol Maj Gen Theeradet, after being informed of the incident. They discovered that it was well-liked by gun buyers, especially those in technical and technical colleges.
According to Pol Maj Gen Theeradet, MPB researchers learned that the outlawed weapons were produced in Chachoengsao and sold to young people all over the nation.
When they visited Chachoengsao to collect information, they discovered a gun-making facility along the Bang Pakong River in the eastern state of Muang. Eventually, they learned that a manufacturing facility was located close to the center of Muang.
When they searched the second floor, they discovered the two offenders making weapons on the top floor.

The expanded investigation, according to Pol Maj Gen Theeradet, revealed that the boys had sold more than 1, 000 artillery before being detained.
During doubting, Sarawut confessed to all expenses. He claimed to have completed Mathayom Suksa 6 but had not studied concepts or related fields to the authorities. He discovered that he could make guns himself, and when he discovered that they would produce high-quality guns, he made it his job. He shared the weapons for sales on Khlang Saeng Dek Chang’s Instagram page.
As his site was common, he said, there were some false Fb pages using the same name. He criticized those sites for tricking users into sending money but not for the delivery of guns.
Officials at the Muang police stop handed over Mr. Sarawut and his brother for legal actions.  ,
