In the thrilling yet perilous world of street racing in Thailand, Police Lieutenant General Nithithorn Jintakanon stands as a formidable counterforce, determined to curb the chaotic avenue where passion for speed meets the fringes of legality. His recent spotlight on the grave implications of unlawful street racing by zealous youngsters underscores not just a crackdown but an outright declaration of war against a culture that flirts dangerously with the law and public tranquility. The pulse-racing activities may seem exhilarating under the night sky, but they usher in a torrent of risks, unruly behaviour, and noise that disrupt the peace of ordinary citizens. It’s a fact not lost on the national police force, which has revved up its engines to thwart these illegal escapades and dole out penalties as swiftly as a split-second finish line crossing. From audacious adolescent racers to the clandestine garages modifying their mean machines, no one escapes…

In a gripping tale that unfolded in the serene yet bustling province of Phitsanulok, Thailand, a young man found himself ensnared by the law’s long and watchful arm. The clock had just struck 8:00 AM on June 17, 2025, when the hushed, focused operation was executed at breakneck speed. The meticulous plot was spearheaded by none other than Police Colonel Santi Korkasem, who—alongside an astute team of officers including Police Lieutenant Colonels Woraprach Wuthirak, Piyarach Wessagosol, Marod Khwanmueang, and the intrepid Police Captain Yoschanin Prasertsopa—put an end to an underground empire that had thrived in the clandestine corners of the internet.

THE exiled Iranian crown prince has urged citizens to stage a national uprising to oust the Ayatollah as the regime sits on the brink of collapse.

Iran’s exiled Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi is the eldest son of the former Shah of Iran – the last leader before the dynasty was overthrown in the 1979 Islamic Revolution.
He urged Iranians in a video posted to X on Tuesday: “[The] Islamic Republic has reached its end and is in the process of collapsing.”
Pahlavi called Khamenei a “frightened rat” who “has gone into hiding underground” and “lost control of the situation”.
He added: “What has begun is irreversible.”
Pahlavi – who fled Iran as a teen and has been living just outside of Washington DC since 2001 – believes that Iran’s “future is bright” despite the spiralling conflict.
He also shared how his “heart is with all the defenceless citizens who have been harmed and have fallen victim to Khamenei’s warmongering and delusions”.
Israeli airstrikes have killed at least 585 people across Iran and wounded 1,326 others, a human rights group has said.
Iran has not been publishing regular death tolls during the conflict and has a history of minimising casualties.
Pahlavi added: “The end of the Islamic Republic is the end of its 46-year war against the Iranian nation.
“The regime’s apparatus of repression is falling apart.”
He then called for a “nationwide uprising” to “put an end to this nightmare once and for all”.
Continuing his plea for a revolution, Pahlavi stressed that “now is the time to rise; the time to reclaim Iran,” urging Iranian citizens to “all come forward and bring about the end of this regime”.
He assured that if an uprising were to occur, Iranians shouldn’t fear “the day after the fall” of Khamenei’s rule” and promised the nation wouldn’t “descend into civil war or instability”.
The exiled crown prince said: “We have a plan for Iran’s future and its flourishing.
“We are prepared for the first hundred days after the fall, for the transitional period, and for the reestablishment of a national and democratic government – by the Iranian people and for the Iranian people.”
Addressing Iranian security and state officials, Pahlavi urged them not to “stand against the Iranian people,” adding that the regime’s “fall has begun and is inevitable”.
He said: “Do not sacrifice yourselves for a decaying regime.
“By standing with the people, you can save your lives.”

Pahlavi concluded: “A free and flourishing Iran lies ahead of us.
“May we be together soon.”
Pahlavi has relentlessly spoken out about Iran’s regime and pressed for change, urging President Donald Trump to put “maximum pressure” on the regime.
Iran fired several missile barrages into Tel Aviv in the early hours of Wednesday.
They are now reportedly preparing to launch missiles and other military equipment on US bases in the Middle East should Trump join Israel’s war, say American officials who have reviewed intelligence reports.
In response, Israel fired back with their own tactical strikes and left much of Tehran up in smoke.
Iran initially had roughly 2,000 missiles capable of hitting Israel, but a significant number were destroyed after Israel launched its surprise attack early Friday, Israeli intelligence officials said
In the past six days of the spiralling conflict, Iran has retaliated against Israeli airstrikes by launching some 400 missiles and hundreds of drones at Israel.
Terrified Tehran citizens have been fleeing in the thousands since Friday, with Trump later urging everyone to immediately evacuate the city.
Trump has already ramped up his threats towards the Iranian regime as he claimed on Wednesday the US and Israel know exactly where Iran‘s Supreme Leader is hiding.
The US president called him an “easy target” but said he won’t order any assassination plot “for now”.
Khamenei went to ground after swathes of military top brass and nuclear scientists were wiped out in simultaneous surgical strikes at the start of Israel’s Operation Rising Lion on Friday.
Who was the Shah?
By Annabel Bate, Foreign News Reporter
THE last Shah of Iran was Mohammad Reza Pahlavi.
He ruled from 1941 to 1979, having succeeded his dad Reza Shah.
Mohammad Reza had a pro-Western foreign policy and encouraged economic development in the nation.
What led to his downfall initially however was 1963 The White Revolution – a series of social, political and economic reforms that Mohammad Reza initiated.
This looked to both modernise and westernise Iran.
But the reforms were perceived as controversial and led to some resistance from various religious and political factions.
On February 11, 1979, Iran’s army declared its neutrality, paving the way for the fall of US-backed Shah Mohammad Reza.
