A group of mostly male police officers has gone viral after going undercover as a female dance troupe to catch a notorious drug dealer in Thailand.
The cross-dressing cops shared a picture of themselves on Facebook posing in sparkly dresses and smiling broadly after the successful operation in Tha Luang, eastern Thailand.
Just one of the six officers in the arrest photo appeared to be a biological female.
The suspect, a man named Mekha Fa-wap-wap, was found with 53 methamphetamine pills, more than 200 plastic bags to hold drugs and a mobile phone, according to police.
Cops suspected Mekha of involvement in illegal activity but decided to disguise themselves as dancers during a street festival to catch him off guard.
Police say he now faces charges for possessing category one narcotics for sale and operating an unauthorized slot machine.
Mekha remains in police custody awaiting further legal proceedings.
Recently, cops in the capital, Bangkok dressed up as a lion dance troupe during the Lunar New Year to nab a repeat offender.
