Two Cameroon men arrested in Surat Thani for overstaying visa by three years

Two Cameroon men have been arrested in Surat Thani’s Phra Saeng district for overstaying their visa by three years to teach English at a remote school.

Pol Col Wanchana Bowornboon, Surat Thani immigration chief, said the two men were arrested at a school in Moo 8 village in Tambon Sinpoon. One is 31 years old and another 45 years old.

Wanchana said immigration officers will check foreigners in line with a policy of Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister Gen Prawit Wongsuwan who wanted to crack down on foreigners who live illegally in the kingdom.

The two will face charges and deportation, Wanchana added.
