Officials raided a factory in Pathum Thani, seizing substandard medical gloves, packaging, and production equipment valued at 500 million baht, following reports of a medical glove scam.
The scam involved clients paying 40-50 million Baht in advance for large export orders, with many never receiving shipments or finding their gloves failed quality checks in destination countries.
The alleged illegal manufacturer faces charges under the Medical Equipment Act for operating without a license and producing counterfeit medical equipment, risking up to 10 years in prison and/or a 1 million baht fine.
