On Sunday morning officers from the Natural Environment Crime Suppression Department arrested four container truck drivers in Banbeung.  Each truck was loaded with two containers of a red coloured chemical substance, which the drivers claimed they were hired by a steel factory to take this substance to another province. However, they had no official papers to prove their intentions.  They were taken back to the police station where they were all bailed for 100,000 baht each to await the results of the investigation of this mysterious substance.
