BURIRAM — Police from the Anti-Human Trafficking Division of the Central Investigation Bureau (CIB) have arrested several married couples across northeastern Thailand for producing and distributing swinging videos on Platform X, with a combined following of over 13 million accounts and generating more than 10 million baht (approximately $300,000) in revenue
Ms. Chatrlada and Mr. Nattawat, both aged 32, were arrested at a residence in Buriram Province on May 23. According to CIB investigators, Ms. Chatlada, who works as a nurse at a hospital in Buriram, has swinging sexual preferences. Her husband Mr. Nattawat would recruit other men interested in having sexual relations with his wife, allowing her to choose partners. They would then film explicit swinging content together.
Mr. Nattawat subsequently posted these clips on Platform X, inviting users to join private groups where members paid subscription fees of 300-500 baht ($9-12) to access uncensored full-length videos. The couple confessed to filming and selling content in private groups for 4-5 years, earning approximately 200,000 baht ($6,155) annually from this activity.
Simultaneously, the same police unit arrested Ms. Pawarisa (26), Mr. Rannakan (27), Ms. Sutthida (26), and Mr. Chatchawan (41) in Sakon Nakhon, Khon Kaen, and Udon Thani provinces respectively. All owned Platform X accounts with similar preferences, where husbands would film explicit content featuring their wives with other men, then sell the footage to private group members.
This arrest operation revealed that the suspects collectively had over 13 million follower accounts and generated more than 10 million baht in total revenue.
All suspects face charges of jointly producing obscene materials for commercial purposes or trade, for distribution or public display, including production, possession, importation or facilitating importation into the Kingdom, and exportation or facilitating exportation outside the Kingdom.
