Police Investigate 'Pote Nak Ja Kaeng' Following Public Allegations
Authorities in Thong Lo have detained social media figure 'Pote Nak Ja Kaeng' for questioning following allegations of fraud and a preliminary positive drug test.
On October 16, 2026, police from Thong Lo Station detained Mr. Supakrit, widely known as 'Pote Nak Ja Kaeng,' following his appearance on the television program 'Hone Krasae.' The individual had recently gained public attention for his involvement in a dispute between a couple, 'Wave' and 'Chompoo,' where he claimed to have investigated the woman for infidelity to help recover financial assets.
Following the broadcast, police escorted Mr. Supakrit to the station for questioning, which lasted nearly three hours. During the initial processing, authorities conducted a urine test, which reportedly showed a faint purple result, indicating a potential presence of illicit substances. Police have since sent the individual to a hospital for a formal, secondary medical examination to confirm the findings.
Beyond the drug investigation, Mr. Supakrit faces potential legal challenges regarding defamation allegations brought by 'Chompoo.' Furthermore, various social media pages and online users have accused him of deceptive behavior and impersonation. For residents and visitors, this case highlights the ongoing scrutiny of social media influencers who intervene in private disputes. It remains to be confirmed whether the medical test will return a positive result for drugs and what specific legal charges, if any, will be formally filed by the authorities or the involved parties.
