Bangkok Governor Aswin Kwanmuang intercepted nine illegal garbage trucks from Samut Sakhon province dumping trash at the Nong Khaem incinerator.
The illegal activity was uncovered after city auditors noticed an unusual 100,000 baht daily increase in trash disposal costs, triggering a week-long surveillance.
It's alleged that two Samut Sakhon organizations hired a private firm, which then colluded with officials at the Nong Khaem incinerator for illegal waste disposal.
Governor Aswin has vowed to investigate the suspected involvement of city officials and plans to file a police complaint seeking compensation from the rogue truck owners.
