A cybercrime investigation led to the arrest of a school gardener who allegedly ran a secret group selling illicit footage of women and students. This operation reportedly generated a significant income over two years, accumulating upwards of 120,000 baht.

 

The Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau (CCIB) held a press conference in Muang Thong Thani at 12pm yesterday, December 23, where senior officers, including Police Lieutenant General Trirong, announced the arrest. The gardener from a primary school in Sukhothai province had been identified as the operator of a secret group distributing voyeuristic videos. The investigation began in November when another individual was apprehended for similar offences, revealing that they had purchased the videos from a VK application group.

 

Undercover operatives discovered that interested parties would join the group by sending a 300-baht True Money gift card through the LINE application. Once inside, members were exposed to a trove of explicit content, including surreptitiously filmed videos of women and students. Financial trails pointed to 36 year old Supap from Sukhothai, as the individual benefiting from these transactions. Based on the evidence, police secured an arrest warrant from the Criminal Court and a search warrant for Supap’s residence in Wang Nam Khiao, Ban Dan Lan Hoi district.

 

 

During the raid, police confiscated a mobile phone and a laptop. A thorough examination of these devices revealed a VK account employed for advertising and recruiting new members into the group. Investigators found 1,064 files on the Mega application, categorised into albums containing illicit footage, including under-skirt videos of celebrities, clips of students, and footage from public restrooms.

 

Supap allegedly claimed that the videos sold in the group were sourced from other groups and reposted to his own. Over the past two years, his activities reportedly earned him between 5,000 and 10,000 baht monthly, amassing a total of more than 120,000 baht.

 

Given Supap’s position as a gardener at a primary school in Sukhothai, there were concerns he might have recorded explicit content of students on-site. Police conducted a detailed inspection of the school’s restrooms where he worked but found no hidden cameras or recording devices.

 

The investigation remains ongoing, as police are determined to ensure that such illicit activities do not occur within educational institutions, reported KhaoSod.
