Lawyer Sitra 'Tum' Arrives at Parliament in Detective Costume to Address Lottery Quota Issues

On September 24, 2026, lawyer Sitra 'Tum' Biebangkerd made a theatrical appearance at the Thai Parliament, arriving in a red Nissan GT-R while dressed as the anime character Detective Conan. According to Khaosod Online, the lawyer was there to provide testimony to a House subcommittee focused on the rights of vulnerable groups, including people with disabilities.

During his visit, Sitra alleged that there are systemic irregularities involving lottery quotas intended for disabled individuals, claiming these are being exploited for money laundering linked to gambling websites and scammers. In a satirical display, he presented a container of baby powder to the media, jokingly referring to it as his 'boss' who provides him protection. He also used the red sports car to mock the luxury vehicles often associated with other public figures.

For residents and observers, this event highlights ongoing public scrutiny regarding the management of state-run lottery quotas and the intersection of high-profile legal activism with political discourse. While Sitra’s testimony aims to expose corruption, the specific details of his evidence and the potential impact on lottery distribution policies remain to be confirmed by the subcommittee’s ongoing investigation. The public is advised to monitor official parliamentary reports for updates on the findings of this inquiry.
