The operation took place yesterday following an order from Police Lieutenant General Worawat Watnakornbancha, head of the Cybercrime Investigation Bureau (CCIB). Police Major General Nipon Boonkerd, along with Police Colonel Torsak Panklinputh, led the raid with a search warrant issued by the Taling Chan Criminal Court dated the day before.

Further investigation revealed that the account owner, Wisut, had been filming and selling pornographic videos for over three years. He resided in the Pinklao area, prompting police to seek a search warrant and proceed with the raid. The police confiscated several items, including an iPhone, an iPad used for filming and editing the videos, lamps, and lingerie used in the videos.

During questioning, Wisut admitted to arranging and filming explicit videos with various men, earning between 100,000 and 200,000 baht (US$3,000 and 6,000) per month. Some men agreed to be filmed for free, while others charged between 1,000 and 2,000 baht (US$30 and 60) per clip. Wisut would then edit and sell these videos through the private group on the X application, reported KhaoSod.

The police have detained Wisut and handed him over to the investigators at the 4th Division of the CCIB for further legal proceedings.
