(Photo: Nutthawat Wichieanbut)The Department of Special Investigation (DSI) has summoned Klatham Party MP Chonnaphat Naksua to acknowledge charges linked to an online gambling and money-laundering network, following raids that uncovered audio and chat evidence reportedly tying him to the network. They also found application chat records related to online gambling and manipulation of tax accounts, with mention of a woman identified as Rae (surname withheld). Mr Chonnaphat has been summoned to answer allegations of organising online gambling and conspiracy to launder money on March 12 at DSI headquarters in Bangkok. If he fails to appear, Pol Lt Gen Rutthapon explained, a second summons would be issued for March 19, with an arrest warrant to follow if he still does not turn up. When asked whether money linked to the gambling network had been used for election campaigning, Pol Lt Gen Rutthapon said the matter had not yet been examined.
