The pair wanted Mr Pai to help them buy the luxury car in exchange for a cut if the purchase went ahead smoothly. Mr Pai said he recommended a company selling super cars on Rama III Road and took Mr Natthaphol to purchase the Lamborghini from the shop. Deputy Narcotics Suppression Bureau (NSB) commander Chatri Phaisalsil, meanwhile, said some of the information provided by Mr Natthaphol and Mr Akarakit simply didn't add up. Mr Akarakit told police he owned the Lamborghini and he had borrowed 6 million baht from Mr Natthaphol for the down payment. Mr Xaysana was arrested at Suvarnabhumi airport on Jan 19 as he arrived on a flight from Phuket.
