On October 20, 2026, the Anti-Money Laundering Office (AMLO) announced an additional asset seizure in the online gambling case against Chonnaphat Naksu and associates. AMLO had previously seized and restrained assets three times, totaling approximately 182 million baht, across three black case numbers (Por 16/2569, Por 106/2569, and Por 167/2569), which are currently under consideration by the Civil Court.
Following expanded investigations, AMLO discovered additional assets linked to the offense — specifically, money and digital assets in a digital asset trading account valued at approximately 44 million baht. On October 19, 2026, the AMLO Secretary-General exercised authority under Section 48, Paragraph 2 of the Anti-Money Laundering Act B.E. 2542 to issue a temporary restraint order (Order Yor. 243/2569) on these assets.
The temporary restraint order is valid for no more than 90 days. If the asset holder or interested parties wish to petition for revocation, they must submit a written request with supporting evidence to the AMLO Secretary-General within 30 days of receiving the order, demonstrating that the seized assets are not connected to the criminal offense.
