On May 20, 2025, Police General Pattanasak Bupasuwan, commander of the Crime Suppression Division, authorized an operation called 'The Red Line' to arrest 10 suspects involved in a mule account network across eight provinces nationwide. The suspects include Jongruk (29), Winas (28), Pattanpong (32), Tinbhat (22), Yongyut (51), Chanitkan (24), Korrachit (37), Pattanaporn (39), Nathavut (27), and Passit (37), operating under arrest warrants No. 525-535/2025 issued by the Thonburi Criminal Court on May 8, 2025, on charges of fraud, unauthorized computer data entry, and money laundering. Two Cambodian nationals, Miss Chankhema (25) and Mr. Sophorn (44), were also sought for operating transfer accounts within the network.

The investigation stemmed from the Anti-Online Fraud Center's (ACSC) policy to suppress online criminal networks. A doctor reported being targeted by the 'Sergeant Poi Pet' gang, who used video calls with fake police station backgrounds and forged court documents to intimidate victims into sharing their phone screens for five consecutive days. Victims were then coerced into transferring their entire bank balances to designated accounts.

The suspects operated as multi-level mule accounts, including primary transfer accounts, temporary holding accounts, and deep-level transfer accounts, with some serving as 'cash mule couriers' withdrawing money nationwide to break the financial trail. Records from Thai Police Online show the group was linked to over 76 cases with total damages exceeding 123 million baht. During interrogation, one suspect confessed to being victimized by the same gang and provided evidence assisting the investigation. However, all arrested suspects denied the charges and claimed no involvement in the fraud scheme. They remain in custody pending further legal proceedings.

At 2:30 PM on May 20, 2025, renowned Muay Thai promoter Seiyabote Nattadej Wichirratnawongse from Phetchyindee camp, along with fighters Boonmee and Snail, discussed plans for their Wan Kanchai Episode 2 fight.

Seiyabote stated he will continue promoting Snail regardless of whether Episode 2 happens, keeping her as a fighter in Sitsongchai camp with a fixed purse of 20,000 baht per fight. He emphasized that if they fight again, it must be Muay Thai at Rajdamnoen Stadium, the largest venue with proper standards.

When asked about profit motives, Seiyabote noted this fight generated record viewership in the millions compared to typical tens of thousands. He pointed out fighters were fully compensated and tickets remained standard price, with organizer Kanchai covering all expenses.

Boonmee said he wanted rest after intense training stress but will continue training. He expressed preference for international boxing or MMA, and confirmed Episode 2 will definitely happen.

Boonmee praised his opponent's growth and maturity through the experience. Snail stated the incident inspired her to pursue professional fighting and found the viral images cute rather than offensive. She emphasized she and Boonmee hold no grudges and view their upcoming fight purely as sports competition.

After the interview, both fighters shook hands to confirm their friendship. When encouraged to kiss cheeks by Snail's friend, they playfully hesitated, joking about previous online backlash before Snail obliged.

Deputy Interior Minister Arthit Sampaththirat revealed on May 20, 2569 that a steering committee has approved commemorative activities for Queen Ramphai Barni of the Seventh Reign marking the 100th anniversary of celebrating her royal legacy, to be held at central, regional, and international levels. The Interior Ministry has notified all 76 provincial governors to organize regional events allowing the public and all sectors to collectively express loyalty and reverence for her gracious legacy. The ministry has directed the 76 provinces to conduct commemorative activities between May 22, 2569 and December 31, 2570. On May 22, 2569 at 7:00 AM, Buddhist chanting ceremonies and merit-making alms-giving will be held at provincial halls or suitable venues, presided over by provincial governors and coordinated with central activities. Sampaththirat invited all Thai citizens to participate in the Buddhist chanting ceremony and merit-making on Friday, May 22, 2569 at 7:00 AM at designated provincial locations, requesting attendees wear traditional Thai dress or formal attire in white or cream tones to collectively pay respects and honor her gracious legacy.

On May 20, 2569, Nong Khai authorities reported that on May 18, District Officer Chakrapong Punthaepheng of Muang Nong Khai District received notice from village security volunteers that five suspicious bags and sacks were discovered along the Mekong River near Ban Hin Ngom. Upon inspection, officials found 146 packages of suspected narcotics inside the sacks.

On May 19, Pol. Col. Pienghathai Suphon, evidence officer for Nong Khai Province, conducted chemical tests on the suspicious substances packaged in durian and tea-shaped plastic bags. Testing revealed that some packages contained ketamine, while other packages appeared to be white crystalline flakes resembling ice. However, detailed examination showed these were actually orange fentanyl—a different substance entirely that does not react to standard chemical tests.

The investigation confirmed 28 packages of ketamine (28 kilograms) and 118 packages of orange fentanyl (118 kilograms). Authorities believe traffickers are grinding up orange fentanyl to deceive buyers into thinking they're purchasing ice, as both substances appear as white crystalline flakes. The dangerous orange fentanyl is being smuggled into Thailand and distributed through trafficking networks.

Consumption of orange fentanyl, which has acidic properties, can cause severe nausea, vomiting, acute abdominal pain, kidney damage, dizziness, depression, cognitive decline, memory loss, and potentially fatal damage to lung tissue and blood vessels. All seized materials have been forwarded to Ban Deua Police Station for further legal proceedings.
