French National Ordered Deported from Thailand by Prime Minister After Violent Incident on Koh Samui

Prime Minister and Interior Minister Anutin Charnvirakul has signed an order expelling French citizen Kevin Dimino from Thailand. This marks the second deportation under the Interior Ministry’s new enforcement measures. The decision follows a violent incident on Koh Samui, where Dimino is accused of threatening, assaulting, and intimidating others, causing public disturbance and sowing disarray within the community. This case underscores the authorities' firm stance against illegal activities by foreigners in Thailand. The Ministry of Interior has announced its policy to take swifter and more decisive actions against foreigners who engage in illegal activities, aiming to maintain safety and order within the country. This deportation order is a concrete manifestation of that policy. Thailand, while a popular tourist destination, also emphasizes its role as a law-abiding nation, and will take decisive action when the conduct of foreigners threatens societal safety. This measure serves to remind all foreigners residing in Thailand of the importance of adhering to local laws and social norms. It also demonstrates the government's resolve to protect the safety and security of its citizens. Source: Pattaya News
