The Central Investigation Bureau (CIB), by the Anti-Trafficking in Persons Division (ATPD), in collaboration with the International Protection Alliance (IPA), arrested Mr. Natthawat (last name withheld), aged 18, according to a Min Buri Criminal Court search warrant on charges of: “Possession, production, having in possession, importing, exporting, or disseminating child pornography for commercial exploitation and importing pornographic data into a computer system.” He was arrested at a condominium in the Saphan Mai area, Bang Khen District, Bangkok.
[The arrest occurred] after receiving a lead that two accounts on the platform X (Twitter), namely Mr. Kankorn (last name withheld) and Mr. Natthawat (last name withheld), had the behavior of producing and disseminating pornographic media to advertise and induce people to subscribe for monthly memberships via the OnlyFans website. From the investigation, it was found that there were suggestive posts regarding sexual intercourse with male students. When officials conducted a sting operation to subscribe, they found a large number of pornographic media files, which clearly included clips involving a child under 18 years of age (only 16 years old) to produce pornographic media.
Officials therefore gathered evidence to request a search warrant for Mr. Natthawat’s room. They found 14 items of evidence, including mobile phones, computers, a DJI video camera, data storage devices, and bank account books, which were seized as evidence. As for Mr. Kankorn, the other suspect, he had been previously arrested in another case. Officials therefore sent Mr. Natthawat to the inquiry officials of Sub-division 4, ATPD, for further legal proceedings. Initially, the suspect confessed that the individuals appearing in the video clips consisted of himself, Mr. Kankorn, and a junior student in the 4th year of secondary school (Grade 10). Mr. Kankorn was responsible for finding people to film the clips, while he himself was responsible for setting up the camera and engaging in sexual intercourse in said clips.
The operation was conducted under the direction of Pol. Lt. Gen. Nattasak Chaowanasai, Commissioner of the CIB; Pol. Maj. Gen. Wittaya Sriprasertpap, Commander of the ATPD; and Pol. Col. Chawinrot Pheemratchathamrong, Superintendent of Sub-division 4, ATPD, who ordered Pol. Maj. Koraek Borirakkul, Inspector of Sub-division 4, ATPD, along with police officers from Sub-division 4, ATPD, to proceed.
