Udon Thani Police Bust VIP Group, Arrest Two Over Teen Porn
Udon Thani police arrested two men for running a VIP group that distributed pornographic images and videos of a 17‑year‑old girl, charging members 999 baht for access. The primary suspect admitted to filming the teenager and implicated his accomplice as the group’s administrator, leading to human‑trafficking charges. Both suspects are now facing prosecution.
At 3:00 p.m. on October 8, 2026, Udon Thani Provincial Governor Chaiwat Chungosum, Region 4 Police Chief Pol Lt Gen Nopkao Somnas, and Udon Thani Provincial Police Commander Pol Col Prachom Simloang jointly announced the arrest of Thanakon, 25, and Ailwil, 28, for jointly distributing pornographic images and videos. The investigation began after authorities learned that pornographic content was being shared on social media, with invitations to join the group sold for 999 baht per person. A search warrant led to Thanakon’s house, where police found pornographic videos of a 17‑year‑old girl. Thanakon confessed to filming the girl and said she was his partner, and he accused Ailwil of managing the group. Police then searched Ailwil’s residence and discovered the same videos on his mobile phone. After arresting both men, investigators expanded the case to add human‑trafficking charges against Thanakon before sending the suspects for prosecution.
