TLDR : Answer Summary
Recent reports indicate that a crackdown by Thai immigration authorities has led to the arrest of 70 individuals for failing to report their whereabouts within 24 hours. The deputy commander of immigration highlighted that the majority of those arrested were Thai nationals and individuals from neighboring countries, amid ongoing efforts to address over-stayers and illegal entries on tourist visas.
