A motorcyclist filed a complaint against a red Mazda driver for an alleged intentional collision on Ratchapruek Road.
The complaint was prompted after the Mazda driver posted a video of the incident, sparking online investigation.
Online sleuths uncovered similar past incidents involving the same Mazda, raising suspicions of deliberate harm towards motorcyclists.
A crime victim advocate is assisting the motorcyclist, suspecting the collision was not accidental given the driver's history.
Nationwide crackdown launched on illegal nominee shareholders and land holdings
Yesterday 15:20Key points summarised by AI
Thailand's Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul initiated a nationwide crackdown on illegal Thai nominee shareholders in foreign-run businesses and land holdings to safeguard national interests.
The government will integrate efforts across all relevant agencies to target illicit foreign operations, forced sales of illegally acquired property, and high-risk land ownership schemes.
Key strategies include auditing suspect land and building holdings, establishing a long-term monitoring system, and cross-referencing data from various authorities to trace ultimate beneficial owners.
Prime Minister Anutin emphasized that no influential figures or corrupt officials are above the law, promising straightforward prosecution, asset seizures, and protection for enforcing officers.
Beyond land ownership, the integrated crackdown will also extend to tackle transnational crimes, including drug and human trafficking.
