At 1:30 PM on October 27, 2026, at the Department of Special Investigation (DSI), MP Rangsiman Rome, People's Party list MP and Chairman of the House Committee on Law, Justice and Human Rights, revealed details after a two-hour session with investigators from the Technology and Information Case Division. He said he traced the connections back to the Three Arrows Capital (3AC) case, the former crypto hedge fund, examining the links between Taiyang Zhang and other individuals. He also provided an additional two-page document listing 25 items for DSI verification, including corporate entities where Zhang held management or investment roles, categorized from RenBridge, REN, Alameda to Shuffle. He confirmed to DSI his readiness to provide full information, including meeting minutes from the House Committee on Legal Affairs accessible to DSI, and digital transaction records showing financial links to Bitkub and Maxbit, all of which have been handed over.
MP Rangsiman further stated that beyond the gambling website details, he provided information on dereliction of duty not only involving MP Suchada but also potentially implicating Chaiyachanok Chidchob, as he had alerted Chaiyachanok on October 1, 2026. MP Suchada formerly served as Deputy Minister of Digital Economy and Society secretary, suggesting overlapping benefits with the gambling sites. Since the gambling sites cannot deny direct links to MP Suchada nor deny providing bribes, he argued she could have blocked the sites without AI assistance, and her failure to do so constitutes dereliction of duty under three main charges: transnational organized crime, the Gambling Act, and money laundering.
He also requested DSI coordinate with the AMLO to seize assets of MP Suchada and Taiyang Zhang to prevent asset shifting, noting that current evidence points to these two as starting points, but financial trails must be examined to see what assets they connect to, citing the example of possible links to the Bhumjaithai Party and whether such funds originated solely from salary deductions. Additionally, DSI inquired whether MP Suchada's assets constitute money laundering; he noted DSI can review her tax returns and asset declarations to distinguish between assets she earned, received as gifts, or acquired through her husband.
