The son-in-law of a Koh Larn hotel owner was arrested for possession
of an illegal gun.
Wannarat Boonyarit, 39, was taken into custody Nov. 27 by patrol
officers who spotted him lurking in the shadows near the Long Talay
Resort. Officers found a loaded .22 Magnum King Cobra handgun on him,
along with 10 rounds of ammunition.
Wannarat said his father in law owns the Long Talay Resort and he was
carrying the gun only for self-protection, as his family was away and
left him in charge. The gun, however, was unregistered and Wannarat was
booked on charges of possession of an illegal weapon and ammunition.
