On May 26, 2025, police arrested a 47-year-old woman identified as Ms. Manohra (surname withheld) at Phaholyothin Road 89 in Pathum Thani province, acting on an arrest warrant issued by Khon Kaen Provincial Court on April 26, 2024. She faces charges including allowing others to use her bank account for technological crimes, abetting fraud, and conspiracy to input false data into computer systems.

The investigation traces back to 2564 (2021), when Ms. Manohra and her girlfriend allegedly deceived victims by posing as attractive women promoting a real estate investment opportunity involving land purchases and townhouse construction. Victims were promised high investment returns and transferred money totaling approximately 920,520 baht into Ms. Manohra's bank account before the suspects disappeared without providing the promised returns.

During initial interrogation, Ms. Manohra confessed to all charges but denied knowledge of the fraud scheme. She maintains she was merely the account holder and claims her girlfriend was the mastermind who used the account. Police detained her and referred the case to Ban Pet Police Station in Khon Kaen province for further investigation and to track down her accomplice.

At a Thai boxing match held at World Siam Stadium in Tawannana on May 25, 2026, a dispute erupted over a fight between Nong Gift from Cha Ha Phayak and Mafiar, a student of Aphidet, for a 300,000-baht education scholarship. Mafiar from the blue corner won the decision on points. However, after the referee announced the result, Nong Gift's corner coach protested the decision. This led to Malakaw S. Thosapol, a former boxer and current trainer at Cha Ha Phayak camp, throwing a right hook punch at the referee's face. Staff members quickly intervened and stopped the incident. Malakaw later apologized to the referee and posted an acknowledgment of his wrongdoing. Nattapong Khunaksa, the manager of World Siam Stadium in Tawannana, subsequently announced an indefinite ban on the individual from entering the stadium.

On May 26, 2025, at TK Palace Hotel, Sawaeng Boonmee, Secretary-General of the Election Commission (EC), presided over the opening ceremony of the Quality Political Party Curriculum Trainer Workshop, 2nd batch of 2025. Sawaeng stated that while good laws and constitutional reforms are important foundations for legitimate political competition, having sound legislation alone does not guarantee success. He pointed out that despite Thailand having excellent constitutions in 1997 and what was called an "anti-corruption" constitution in 2017, Thai politics has made little progress over nearly 30 years, with corruption indices remaining among ASEAN's worst. Sawaeng emphasized that the real problem lies with people, not laws, and urged against weaponizing democracy for partisan political goals. He stressed that good politics requires three elements: good political players, good voters, and good election administrators. While affirming that Thailand has the world's most transparent electoral system, Sawaeng acknowledged that all three groups face accusations—politicians are accused of vote-buying, citizens still accept payments for votes, and the EC faces questions about impartiality. He noted that the electoral system belongs to the people and called for collective responsibility rather than scapegoating any single institution.

The family of Nawin Tar has been cleared of involvement following clarification from Namphueng (Hisonan'amhuan), his wife, regarding criticism over a 1990s actress's child playing rough and breaking a restaurant's glass door. The restaurant owner initially had a civil conversation with the actress, but when damage costs of over 10,000 baht were presented, the actress stopped responding to calls and messages.

On social media, speculation linked the incident to Nawin Tar, with comments directed at him and criticism extending to the child. A popular social media page hinted at a 1990s-era actress who was once famous but hasn't appeared in recent work, has two children, and confirmed the family is not related to Nawin Tar.

Namphueng went live on social media to address the issue, firmly stating no connection to her own family and expressing sympathy for the child being attacked in comments. She offered to help hire a lawyer for the actress if she wanted to sue those criticizing her child.

Namphueng stated: "People sent me news and everyone wrote 'N.T., N.T.' saying the child broke the glass. I apologize. The child didn't know any better. You can't blame a child. Whether it's our child or someone else's, if they grow up they won't do it again. They don't want their parents to lose money. But adults with negative thoughts sit around criticizing."

She continued: "Don't say the parents taught poorly. Hasn't your child ever made a mistake? Thai society gives chances to people. Those who don't fit society's norms sit commenting for attention. If not, new standards are coming and you'll be sued."

Navin Tar added during the live stream: "If you're going to criticize, criticize the parents, not the child. Don't mention the child."

Namphueng further stated: "If that person is being harassed and criticized in comments, I will help them file a lawsuit myself. Stop saying the child wasn't educated, wasn't disciplined—blame the parents, not the child."

She concluded: "This makes me angry, not because of our child, but because you're talking about a child. Don't say the child wasn't taught. Don't criticize the child. How old are they?"

Namphueng announced her willingness to fund a lawsuit for the parents: "Today I can speak because we have money to hire a lawyer. But if that child's parents are facing financial difficulties right now, they might not have money to sue commenters. I want to announce here that I'm willing to send a lawyer to help them file a lawsuit. This would set a standard for Thai society and stop strange criticism that traumatizes children. Because your comment today is online, when the child grows up and searches, it becomes part of their history, their family's history. If it were your family, you wouldn't want this to happen."
