Armed police have launched overnight patrols at durian farms in Thailand after thousands of pounds worth of the valuable fruit was stolen by thieves.
Gun-wielding officers will be making rounds in durian orchards in Trat province from 6 PM to dawn, making sure farmers can safely harvest their produce - with retails locally for up to 200 Baht (4.81 GBP) a kilogram.
