Security in danger: Investigations into a serious crime in Hua Hin!

It is no secret that our beautiful city of Hua Hin is in the focus of the security authorities. Today is January 20, 2026 and there are currently valid reasons for concern. The Chief of Police of the Provincial Police Region 7 has been informed of a serious incident that could significantly affect the public's sense of security. This incident, which took place in a major tourism area, has raised alarm bells. Even the entire country's tourism image is at stake, as Nation Thailand reports.

Urgent instructions were issued to the commanders of the Region 7 Provincial Police and the Prachuap Khiri Khan Provincial Police to arrest the suspect. Pol Lt Gen Phisit Tanprasert and Pol Maj Gen Athorn Chinthong are in charge here. According to them, the suspect is considered dangerous and an arrest warrant was issued by the Hua Hin Provincial Court. Investigators have been instructed to collect all available evidence, from forensic clues to CCTV footage and witness statements, to strengthen the case file.

Safety first

A major security operation is also imminent! Police in Prachuap Khiri Khan have launched a comprehensive operation to ensure security during upcoming festivals such as Halloween and Loy Krathong. The official opening ceremony will take place on October 31st at 5:00 p.m. at the Hua Hin Clock Tower. Police General Major Athorn Chinthong is leading this operation and is supported by over 120 emergency services, including police officers, district administrations and volunteer organizations, as Wochenblitz reports.

The measures aim to combat crimes against life and property in particular and to ensure the safety of locals and tourists. Checks at transport hubs, train stations, accommodation and tourist zones will be increased to prevent illegal activities such as gambling and drug trafficking. Strict regulations against entertainment establishments that exceed legal closing times are also part of the plan to strengthen the feeling of safety in the city.
