Suddenly, my iPhone showed an ALERT! A remote-controlled helicopter was used to smuggle drugs! If you’re worried about the misuse of drugs in your palce of work, luckily drug testing has become very easy.

Not just drugs! Add to that mobile phones! Where? Into Khon Kaen Central Prison (Thailand) on Sunday. The aircraft flew over the walls of the jail and headed to Zone 2 in the early morning.

Officials conducted a search in a one-kilometre radius around the prison to track down the person who controlled the helicopter but failed to find the suspect. They found the aircraft left with the engine.

The seized aircraft had a camera installed at the front and was estimated to cost between 700,000 and one million baht.
