A Bangkok hotel worker, 26, has been arrested over a seven-year sexual exploitation scandal involving teenage schoolboys. Posing as university professors, he allegedly forged academic documents and tricked pupils aged 15–17 into supplying intimate photographs and videos. One victim reported being coerced into repeated sexual encounters disguised as academic research. A DSI raid uncovered more than 5,000 sexually explicit files, including over 3,000 suspected child sexual abuse files. At least four victims have been identified, with more feared. The case is so serious that Justice Ministry Permanent Secretary Piyasiri Wattanawarangkul personally announced the arrest and Operation Black Research on Thursday.

A 26-year-old Bangkok hotel employee has been arrested over a bizarre fake university research scheme targeting teenage schoolboys. Investigators say he impersonated university professors, forged academic documents and persuaded pupils to submit intimate photographs and sexual recordings.

The suspected operation began in 2019, when the man was just 19. Moreover, one victim reported being coerced into repeated sexual activity under the pretence of academic research. A raid on the suspect’s Bangkok condominium uncovered more than 5,000 sexually explicit files. The case prompted a personal announcement by the Permanent Secretary of Thailand’s Ministry of Justice on Thursday, 15 October.

Permanent Secretary Piyasiri Wattanawarangkul led the announcement at the Ministry of Justice in Bangkok. He presented the results of Operation Black Research alongside senior Department of Special Investigation (DSI) officers.

Justice Ministry reveals arrest of Bangkok hotel worker accused of posing as university professors

The briefing followed the arrest of a hotel employee identified only as Bancha, 26. His surname has been withheld. Investigators arrested him on Wednesday, 14 October, at a condominium in Bangkok’s Charoen Nakhon area.

The senior-level announcement reflected the attention being given to the investigation. DSI Director-General Police Lieutenant Colonel Piya Raksakul joined the Permanent Secretary at the briefing.

Also present was Police Lieutenant Colonel Khemachat Prakaihongmani, director of the DSI’s Technology and Information Crime Division. Together, they outlined accusations involving forged university credentials, sexual exploitation and thousands of recovered digital files.

At the centre of the case was a supposed university research project examining sexuality and personal experiences. However, investigators say the academic credentials were fabricated. Bancha allegedly impersonated genuine professors and used counterfeit documents from several universities.

His targets were male secondary school pupils aged between 15 and 17. The teenagers were not university students. Instead, they were persuaded to participate in research supposedly supervised by established academics.

Fake university study targeted schoolboys and led to sexual coercion claims and 5,000 seized files

The deception reportedly began in 2019, when Bancha was approximately 19 years old. Initially, he approached a pupil he knew through a secondary school. The student was invited to complete an online questionnaire concerning sexuality and personal experiences.

Subsequently, the requests became increasingly intrusive. Investigators say the suspect demanded intimate photographs and videos while maintaining the appearance of a genuine academic project.

The operation allegedly went considerably further. One complainant reported being summoned to meetings at various locations, including the suspect’s residence. Bancha reportedly claimed that sexual activity formed part of procedures prescribed by a university professor. The victim described repeated sexual encounters under that pretence. Furthermore, investigators say threats were used to prevent withdrawal from the supposed research.

The scale of the recovered material became clear following the 14 October raid. Officers seized more than 5,000 sexually explicit files from the suspect’s condominium. Of these, more than 3,000 were classified as suspected child sexual abuse material. Another approximately 2,000 files contained adult pornography. In addition, investigators confiscated a laptop computer, two mobile telephones and an iPad.

The number of files immediately became a significant feature of the case. However, investigators have not established that 5,000 separate individuals were involved. At least four complainants have been identified, while enquiries continue into possible additional victims. The DSI has not disclosed how many people appear in the recovered material. Neither has it confirmed whether every file originated from the supposed research project.

Victims’ complaints in 2025 exposed a bogus academic project dating back to 2019, investigators say

The investigation began after international child protection organisation OUR Rescue contacted the DSI in June 2025. The organisation assists victims of human trafficking and child sexual exploitation.

Its referral followed complaints from individuals who said they had been deceived by a man named Bancha. According to the information supplied, he had approached pupils from a prestigious secondary school. He then persuaded them to provide intimate material for what he described as university research.

In response, the DSI opened an investigation into the suspect’s activities and communications. Officers traced the reported scheme back to 2019. The earliest known approach involved a pupil acquainted with Bancha through a secondary school.

The suspect invited the student to participate in an online survey. Questions concerned sexuality and personal experiences, supposedly for an academic study. At that stage, the approach was presented as conventional university research.

However, the nature of the requests subsequently changed. Investigators say Bancha began producing documents purporting to originate from several universities. These documents were allegedly forged to convince participants that the project was legitimate.

Meanwhile, he created accounts on the LINE messaging application using the names of genuine university professors. Through those accounts, he reportedly issued instructions while pretending to represent academic staff.

Forged university papers and fake LINE professor accounts persuaded schoolboys to submit intimate files

The impersonation was central to the suspected operation. Pupils were led to believe that recognised university lecturers were supervising the project. Furthermore, the counterfeit paperwork reinforced claims that the research had academic backing.

The DSI has confirmed that the genuine professors whose identities were used knew nothing about the activities. They had not authorised the communications and were not involved in the supposed research.

Nevertheless, their names were allegedly used to persuade pupils to cooperate. Investigators say the suspect subsequently requested nude photographs and sexually explicit videos. Some participants were instructed to record sexual activity and submit the material through LINE. The requests were presented as requirements of the academic project. Meanwhile, the false lecturer accounts maintained the appearance of university supervision.

The use of LINE provided a direct communication channel between the suspect and his targets. According to investigators, instructions were transmitted through accounts impersonating university professors.

The supposed research documents provided further support for those communications. As a result, pupils were reportedly persuaded to provide recordings they believed were required for academic purposes. The DSI has not disclosed the total number of such exchanges.

Victim describes repeated sexual encounters and threats disguised as university research procedures

The investigation also uncovered complaints concerning physical encounters arranged through the supposed research. One victim reported being instructed to attend meetings at several locations. These included the suspect’s residence.

The meetings were presented as necessary for collecting research information. However, the complainant said Bancha subsequently introduced sexual activity as part of the academic procedure.

According to the complaint, the suspect claimed that a university professor had prescribed the activities. The victim reported being persuaded or pressured into sexual intercourse on several occasions.

Furthermore, Bancha allegedly threatened the victim to discourage withdrawal from the project. He also reportedly produced additional documents purporting to come from a university. Investigators are examining these accusations alongside the suspected collection of intimate recordings.

The allegations therefore involve more than the online acquisition of sexually explicit material. They include accusations of coercion during personal encounters arranged under false academic pretences.

However, the DSI has not disclosed how many victims reported direct physical sexual abuse. Nor has it established publicly how many meetings were arranged. The available complaints describe both electronic communications and face-to-face encounters.

Criminal Court warrant follows DSI investigation into forged credentials and sexual exploitation claims

Separately, investigators have withheld the names of the universities whose documents were forged. The genuine lecturers whose identities were misused have also remained unidentified publicly.

Likewise, the secondary school connected to the original complaints has not been named. Officials have confirmed that the victims were male pupils aged between 15 and 17 when targeted. The university connection was part of the suspect’s claimed credentials.

The investigation subsequently became a formal DSI special case, registered as Special Case No. 18/2569. On 2 October 2026, the Criminal Court issued arrest warrant No. 5933/2569 for Bancha.

The warrant followed enquiries into suspected document forgery, sexual exploitation and the collection of intimate recordings. With judicial authorisation secured, investigators prepared Operation Black Research to locate and arrest the suspect.

The operation was directed by DSI Director-General Piya Raksakul and Deputy Director-General Police Lieutenant Colonel Chatupol Bongkochmas. Meanwhile, Khemachat Prakaihongmani led officers from the Technology and Information Crime Division. Personnel from the Special Operations Division and Surveillance and Intelligence Centre provided additional support. Representatives of OUR Rescue also participated in the operation.

Bangkok condominium raid uncovers more than 5,000 explicit files as suspect denies selling recordings

On Wednesday, 14 October, the combined team located Bancha at a condominium in Bangkok’s Charoen Nakhon area. Officers arrested him under the Criminal Court warrant and searched the premises.

The search uncovered thousands of sexually explicit files and several electronic devices. Investigators reported finding more than 3,000 files containing suspected child sexual abuse material. Approximately 2,000 additional files contained adult pornography.

In total, the recovered material exceeded 5,000 files. Officers also seized one laptop, two mobile telephones and an iPad. The equipment was confiscated for examination as part of the criminal investigation. However, the DSI has not released the results of a completed forensic analysis. Investigators are continuing to examine the origin and nature of the recovered material.

The seizure has also raised questions about possible distribution. Bancha has reportedly denied selling the material or obtaining benefits from its circulation. He has also denied working with accomplices. Nevertheless, investigators have not established a commercial motive or confirmed the involvement of an organised network. The DSI has not announced findings proving that the recovered recordings were sold.

Investigators distinguish thousands of seized files from victim numbers as Justice Ministry briefs public

The distinction between the recovered files and identified victims remains important to the investigation. More than 3,000 files were classified as suspected child sexual abuse material.

However, that does not establish the number of children depicted. Multiple recordings could concern the same individual, while other material may have different origins. Consequently, the DSI has not provided a final victim count.

Following his arrest, Bancha was brought before the Criminal Court at 2.45 pm on Wednesday, 14 October. The Justice Ministry announced the operation publicly the following day. Permanent Secretary Piyasiri Wattanawarangkul personally presented the case alongside senior DSI officers. The briefing detailed the alleged deception, complaints of sexual coercion and the evidence recovered during the raid.

The presence of the Permanent Secretary placed the investigation before the ministry’s highest-ranking permanent official.

Notably, the announcement involved both the DSI’s Director-General and its specialist technology crime leadership. Officials also outlined the participation of special operations and intelligence personnel. The investigation had already continued for more than a year following the June 2025 referral.

Detection dog demonstrated as DSI details forgery and coercion accusations against hotel worker

During the press conference, investigators demonstrated the capabilities of Winner, a trained electronic storage detection dog. The animal is trained to locate concealed electronic devices and storage media.

However, the demonstration did not establish that Winner discovered the equipment seized during the condominium search. The presentation formed part of the wider announcement concerning Operation Black Research.

The DSI also disclosed the criminal accusations facing Bancha. These include forging documents and signatures to make counterfeit material appear genuine. Additional accusations concern forging official documents and using counterfeit documents to deceive others.

The alleged university paperwork forms part of these enquiries. Investigators are also examining the reported impersonation of university lecturers through fabricated LINE accounts.

On another front, the suspect faces accusations concerning recordings of sexual offences. These involve the recording and transmission of images or sounds for improper benefit. Further accusations concern indecent acts committed through intimidation or coercion. The investigation also covers taking victims to locations for sexual purposes through deception, threats or other pressure.

Suspect faces child abuse material accusations as DSI examines files and arranges assistance for victims

Additionally, Bancha faces accusations involving possession and distribution of child sexual abuse material. The offences are being examined under Thailand’s Criminal Code and related legislation.

However, the accusations remain subject to criminal proceedings. No conviction has been reported. The suspect’s denials concerning commercial distribution and accomplices also remain part of the investigation.

The DSI is continuing to examine the recovered recordings and electronic equipment. Investigators are seeking to establish the origins of the material and whether additional victims were involved. At least four complainants have already been identified. Meanwhile, officials believe further individuals may have been targeted through the same supposed academic project.

The Department of Rights and Liberties Protection is also involved in arrangements concerning the victims. Officials are examining assistance and possible compensation under the relevant procedures. In parallel, the DSI is continuing its criminal investigation into the suspect’s communications and recovered files. The findings may determine whether further accusations or suspects emerge.

Six-year gap between first reported deception and complaint referral leaves extent of scheme unresolved

The timeline remains a significant aspect of the case. The reported deception began in 2019, when Bancha was approximately 19. Yet the DSI did not receive the referral from OUR Rescue until June 2025.

That was roughly six years after the suspected activities first began. However, investigators have not established whether the operation continued without interruption throughout that period.

The available information does not establish how frequently the suspect approached pupils. Neither does it disclose how many questionnaires or supposed academic projects he created. Investigators have also withheld details of his relationship with the secondary school.

The earliest reported contact involved a pupil he knew through that institution. However, the DSI has not explained how the acquaintance began.

Nor has it disclosed whether all identified victims attended the same school. The suspect’s academic background also remains unclear. His reported employment was at a hotel, rather than a university.

Investigators have not disclosed whether he possessed genuine academic qualifications. Nevertheless, the DSI has identified forged university documents and fabricated lecturer accounts as central elements of the suspected scheme.

Investigators examine false lecturer identities and reports of abuse dating to suspect’s teenage years

The genuine professors whose identities were misused had no knowledge of the operation. Investigators have not identified any university employee who assisted the suspect.

Similarly, they have not explained how he obtained the lecturers’ names or constructed the counterfeit documents. The investigation therefore remains focused on the suspect’s communications, forged paperwork and the victims’ accounts.

The reported starting date places Bancha in his late teenage years when the suspected deception began. He is now 26. Consequently, the case concerns accusations dating from his late teens into adulthood. However, the precise dates of individual suspected offences have not been made public. The DSI has also withheld identifying information about the victims and their educational institution.

The operation has already produced a substantial collection of digital material. Investigators have also documented the reported misuse of genuine academics’ identities without their knowledge. According to the DSI, those identities were used to persuade secondary school pupils to submit intimate recordings. The complaints further describe sexual encounters arranged under the pretence of university research.

Justice Ministry confirms thousands of seized files as DSI continues enquiries into further victims

One victim reported repeated sexual activity and threats intended to prevent withdrawal from the supposed project. Meanwhile, investigators continue examining whether other pupils experienced similar conduct. The DSI has not established the full number of individuals affected. Nor has it confirmed whether any commercial distribution network existed.

The Justice Ministry’s announcement on 15 October followed more than a year of enquiries after the original referral. Permanent Secretary Piyasiri Wattanawarangkul presented the findings alongside the DSI’s Director-General and senior investigators.

The briefing confirmed the seizure of more than 5,000 sexually explicit files, including over 3,000 suspected child sexual abuse files.

At least four complainants have been identified, while investigators continue examining the possibility of further victims. Bancha was arrested under Criminal Court warrant No. 5933/2569 and brought before the court on 14 October. He now faces criminal proceedings concerning document forgery, sexual coercion and child sexual abuse material. Operation Black Research remains under investigation by the DSI.

在“犯罪”、“生活”、“媒体”、“政治”、“泰国”等类别中

一名26岁的曼谷酒店员工因涉嫌长达七年的性剥削丑闻被捕，该丑闻涉及多名未成年男学生。据称，他冒充大学教授，伪造学术文件，诱骗15至17岁的学生提供私密照片和视频。一名受害者称，他被迫多次进行性交易，而这些交易都被伪装成学术研究。泰国特别调查局（DSI）的一次突击搜查中，查获了超过5000份露骨的性文件，其中包括3000多份疑似儿童性虐待的文件。目前已确认至少四名受害者，但预计还有更多受害者。由于案情严重，司法部常务秘书皮亚西里·瓦塔纳瓦朗库尔（Piyasiri Wattanawarangkul）于周四亲自宣布了此次逮捕行动以及“黑色研究行动”（Operation Black Research）。

一名26岁的曼谷酒店员工因涉嫌参与一项针对青少年男学生的离奇虚假大学研究计划而被捕。调查人员称，他冒充大学教授，伪造学术文件，并诱骗学生提交私密照片和性爱录像。

涉嫌的犯罪活动始于2019年，当时该男子年仅19岁。此外，一名受害者称，她被以学术研究为幌子胁迫进行多次性行为。警方突袭了嫌疑人在曼谷的公寓，查获了超过5000份色情文件。此案促使泰国司法部常务秘书于10月15日（星期四）亲自发表声明。

常务秘书皮亚西里·瓦塔纳瓦朗库尔在曼谷司法部主持了发布会。他与特别调查部（DSI）高级官员一同介绍了“黑色调查行动”的成果。

司法部公布逮捕消息，一名曼谷酒店员工被控冒充大学教授

此次简报是在一名酒店员工被捕后发布的，该员工仅被确认为26岁的班查（Bancha），其姓氏未被公开。调查人员于10月14日星期三在曼谷乍伦那空区的一处公寓将其逮捕。

高层官员的声明反映了当局对调查的重视。特别调查局局长、警官皮亚·拉克萨库尔中校与常务秘书一同出席了简报会。

出席者还包括菲律宾特别调查局（DSI）技术与信息犯罪部门主管、警官克马查特·普拉凯洪马尼中校。他们共同概述了涉及伪造大学学历证书、性剥削以及数千份已追回的电子文件的指控。

案件的核心是一个所谓的大学研究项目，该项目旨在探讨性与个人经历之间的关系。然而，调查人员表示，该项目的学术资质是伪造的。班查涉嫌冒充真正的教授，并使用了多所大学的伪造文件。

他的目标是15至17岁的中学生，这些青少年并非大学生。相反，他们被说服参与一项据称由知名学者指导的研究。

一份虚假的大学申请文件以男学生为目标，导致性胁迫指控，并查获了5000份文件。

据报道，这起骗局始于2019年，当时班查大约19岁。起初，他通过一所中学认识了一名学生，并邀请这名学生填写一份关于性取向和个人经历的在线问卷。

随后，这些要求变得越来越具有侵犯性。调查人员称，嫌疑人要求提供私密照片和视频，同时伪装成一个真实的学术项目。

据称，该行动远不止于此。一名受害者称，她被召集到多个地点开会，包括嫌疑人的住所。据报道，班查声称性行为是大学教授规定的程序的一部分。受害者描述了在这种借口下多次遭受性侵害的经历。此外，调查人员表示，有人威胁受害者，阻止他们退出所谓的“研究”。

10月14日的突袭行动后，查获材料的规模才得以明朗。警方在嫌疑人的公寓内查获了5000多份色情文件，其中3000多份被列为疑似儿童性虐待材料，另有约2000份为成人色情内容。此外，调查人员还缴获了一台笔记本电脑、两部手机和一台iPad。

文件数量立即成为此案的一个重要特征。然而，调查人员尚未证实有5000名不同的个人涉案。目前已确认至少四名投诉人，同时仍在调查可能存在的其他受害者。DSI尚未透露已恢复材料中出现的人员数量，也未证实所有文件是否都源自所谓的“研究项目”。

调查人员称，受害者在2025年提出的投诉揭露了一个可以追溯到2019年的虚假学术项目。

这项调查始于2025年6月，当时国际儿童保护组织OUR Rescue联系了DSI。该组织致力于帮助人口贩运和儿童性剥削的受害者。

此前，有人投诉称自己被一名叫班查的男子欺骗，随后警方介入调查。据提供的信息，班查接近了一所著名中学的学生，并说服他们提供私密资料，声称是为了进行大学研究。

对此，特别调查局（DSI）对嫌疑人的活动和通讯记录展开调查。警方追溯到该诈骗计划最早可追溯至2019年。目前已知的最早接触者是一名通过中学认识班查的学生。

嫌疑人邀请该学生参与一项在线调查。调查内容涉及性取向和个人经历，据称是为了进行一项学术研究。当时，这种做法被包装成常规的大学研究。

然而，这些要求的性质随后发生了变化。调查人员称，班查开始伪造一些据称来自多所大学的文件。这些文件据称是伪造的，目的是为了让参与者相信该项目的合法性。

与此同时，他用一些大学教授的姓名在LINE聊天软件上创建了多个账号。据报道，他通过这些账号冒充教职员工发布指令。

伪造的大学文件和虚假的LINE教授账号诱骗男学生提交私密文件

冒充是这起涉嫌行动的核心。学生们被误导，以为是由知名的大学讲师指导该项目。此外，伪造的文件也强化了该研究具有学术权威性的说法。

DSI已证实，被冒用身份的真正教授对此事毫不知情。他们既未授权这些通讯，也未参与所谓的科研活动。

然而，据称他们的名字被用来诱骗学生配合。调查人员称，嫌疑人随后索要裸照和性爱视频。一些参与者被指示录制性行为并通过LINE提交。这些要求被包装成学术项目的要求。与此同时，这些虚假的教师账号维持着大学监管的假象。

LINE的使用为嫌疑人与其目标对象之间提供了直接的沟通渠道。据调查人员称，指令是通过冒充大学教授的账户传递的。

据称，这些研究文件为上述交流提供了进一步佐证。结果，据报道，学生们被说服提供他们认为出于学术目的所需的录音。DSI尚未披露此类交流的总数。

受害者描述了多次性骚扰和威胁，这些骚扰和威胁都被伪装成大学研究程序。

调查还发现，有人投诉称，他们通过所谓的调查活动安排了肢体接触。一名受害者报告说，她被指示前往多个地点参加会议，其中包括嫌疑人的住所。

这些会议被描述为收集研究信息的必要环节。然而，投诉人称，班查随后将性行为纳入了学术程序。

根据起诉书，嫌疑人声称是一位大学教授指使他进行这些活动的。受害者称，她曾多次被劝说或胁迫发生性行为。

此外，据称班查还威胁受害者，阻止其退出该项目。据报道，他还出示了一些声称来自大学的额外文件。调查人员正在调查这些指控以及涉嫌收集私密录音一事。

因此，这些指控不仅仅涉及网上获取色情材料，还包括以虚假学术借口安排的私人会面中的胁迫行为。

然而，性侵犯调查局（DSI）并未披露有多少受害者报告遭受直接的身体性侵犯，也未公开确定安排了多少次会面。现有投诉既描述了电子通讯，也描述了面对面的接触。

刑事法庭根据DSI对伪造证件和性剥削指控的调查发出逮捕令。

此外，调查人员尚未公布文件被伪造的大学名称。身份被盗用的真正讲师的身份也尚未公开。

同样，与最初投诉相关的中学也未被透露名称。官方已证实，受害者是15至17岁的男生。与大学的联系是嫌疑人声称的资历之一。

该调查随后成为正式的DSI特别案件，登记为特别案件第18/2569号。2026年10月2日，刑事法院签发了对Bancha的第5933/2569号逮捕令。

此次搜查令源于对涉嫌伪造文件、性剥削和收集私密录像的调查。在获得司法授权后，调查人员启动了“黑色调查行动”，以定位并逮捕嫌疑人。

此次行动由特别调查局局长皮亚·拉克萨库尔和副局长查图波尔·邦科赫马斯中校指挥。同时，克马查特·普拉凯洪马尼率领科技与信息犯罪部门的警员参与行动。特勤部门和监视与情报中心的人员也提供了支援。OUR Rescue的代表也参与了此次行动。

曼谷一处公寓遭突击搜查，查获5000多份不雅视频，嫌疑人否认出售录像带

10月14日星期三，联合行动小组在曼谷乍伦那空区的一处公寓内找到了班查。警方根据刑事法院的逮捕令将其逮捕，并搜查了该处房产。

搜查行动发现了数千份色情文件和数台电子设备。调查人员报告称，他们发现了3000多份疑似包含儿童性虐待内容的文件，另有约2000份文件包含成人色情内容。

警方共追回超过5000份文件。此外，警方还查获了一台笔记本电脑、两部手机和一台iPad。这些设备已被没收，作为刑事调查的一部分进行检验。然而，刑事调查局尚未公布已完成的法证分析结果。调查人员仍在继续调查追回材料的来源和性质。

此次查获行动也引发了人们对可能传播途径的质疑。据报道，班查否认出售这些录音制品或从中获利，也否认与同伙合作。然而，调查人员尚未确定其存在商业动机，也未证实存在有组织的犯罪网络。菲律宾特别调查局（DSI）尚未公布任何调查结果，证明查获的录音制品已被出售。

司法部向公众通报情况时，调查人员将数千份查获的文件与受害者人数区分开来。

区分已恢复的文件和已确认的受害者对调查仍然至关重要。超过3000份文件被列为疑似儿童性虐待材料。

然而，这并不能确定视频中出现的儿童人数。多段录像可能涉及同一人，而其他素材可能来源不同。因此，DSI尚未提供最终的受害者人数。

班查被捕后，于10月14日星期三下午2点45分被带到刑事法庭。司法部于次日公开宣布了此次行动。常务秘书皮亚西里·瓦塔纳瓦朗库尔与高级特案司官员一同亲自陈述了案情。简报详细介绍了涉嫌的欺骗行为、性胁迫指控以及突袭行动中查获的证据。

常务秘书的在场使得这项调查摆在了该部最高级别的常任官员面前。

值得注意的是，此次声明由法国特别调查局局长及其负责技术犯罪的专家领导共同发布。官员们还概述了特勤和情报人员的参与情况。自2025年6月移交以来，该调查已持续一年多。

缉毒犬亮相，DSI详细调查了针对酒店员工的伪造和胁迫指控。

在新闻发布会上，调查人员展示了训练有素的电子设备探测犬“温纳”的能力。这只狗经过训练，能够定位隐藏的电子设备和存储介质。

然而，此次演示并未证实温纳发现了在公寓搜查中查获的设备。此次演示是“黑色研究行动”更广泛声明的一部分。

特别调查局还披露了班查面临的刑事指控，其中包括伪造文件和签名，使伪造材料看起来像真的一样。其他指控还包括伪造官方文件和使用伪造文件欺骗他人。

据称涉及的大学文件是此次调查的一部分。调查人员还在调查有关有人通过伪造LINE账号冒充大学讲师的报道。

另一方面，嫌疑人还面临与录制性犯罪有关的指控。这些指控涉及为谋取不正当利益而录制和传播图像或声音。此外，还有指控涉及通过恐吓或胁迫实施猥亵行为。调查还包括通过欺骗、威胁或其他压力手段将受害者带到特定地点进行性行为。

嫌疑人面临儿童虐待材料指控，DSI正在审查案卷并为受害者安排援助。

此外，班查还面临持有和传播儿童性虐待材料的指控。这些罪行正在根据泰国刑法及相关法律进行审查。

然而，这些指控仍需经过刑事诉讼程序。目前尚未有任何定罪报告。嫌疑人否认参与商业分销和有同伙，这些否认也仍在调查之中。

刑事调查局（DSI）正在继续检查已追回的录音和电子设备。调查人员正在努力查明这些材料的来源，以及是否还有其他受害者。目前已确认至少四名投诉人。与此同时，官员们认为可能还有其他人通过同一个所谓的学术项目成为目标。

人权与自由保护部也参与了有关受害者的安排工作。官员们正在根据相关程序审查援助和可能的赔偿事宜。与此同时，特别调查局（DSI）正在继续对嫌疑人的通信记录和已查获的文件进行刑事调查。调查结果可能决定是否会有进一步的指控或嫌疑人出现。

从首次报告欺诈行为到正式投诉处理，中间隔了六年时间，导致该欺诈计划的范围仍未查明。

时间线仍然是此案的一个重要方面。据报道，欺骗行为始于2019年，当时班查大约19岁。然而，直到2025年6月，DSI才收到OUR Rescue的转介。

那大约是疑似活动首次开始六年之后。然而，调查人员尚未确定该行动在此期间是否持续不断。

现有信息无法确定嫌疑学生与他接触的频率，也无法透露他制作了多少份问卷或所谓的学术项目。调查人员还隐瞒了他与这所中学的关系细节。

最早的记录显示，他与该机构的一名学生有过接触。然而，刑事调查局并未解释两人是如何相识的。

警方也未透露所有已确认的受害者是否就读于同一所学校。嫌疑人的学历背景也尚不清楚。据报道，他受雇于一家酒店，而非大学。

调查人员尚未透露他是否拥有真实的学历。然而，刑事调查局已认定伪造的大学文件和捏造的讲师账户是该涉嫌舞​​弊案的核心要素。

调查人员审查了虚假讲师身份以及嫌疑人青少年时期发生的虐待报告。

那些身份被盗用的真正教授对此事毫不知情。调查人员尚未发现任何协助嫌疑人的大学员工。

同样，他们也没有解释他是如何获得讲师姓名或伪造文件的。因此，调查仍然集中在嫌疑人的通信记录、伪造文件和受害者的陈述上。

据报道，班查涉嫌诈骗行为的起始时间约为十几岁末期。他现在26岁。因此，此案涉及的指控涵盖了他从十几岁末期到成年的整个时期。然而，具体涉嫌犯罪的日期尚未公开。菲律宾特别调查局（DSI）也未公布受害者的身份信息及其就读学校。

此次行动已收集到大量数字资料。调查人员还记录了未经知情人士同意，其真实身份被滥用的情况。据DSI称，这些身份被用来诱骗中学生提交私密录像。投诉还描述了以大学研究为幌子安排的性行为。

司法部证实已查获数千份文件，特别调查局继续调查其他受害者。

一名受害者报告称，她多次遭到性骚扰和威胁，目的是阻止她退出所谓的“项目”。与此同时，调查人员仍在调查其他学生是否遭遇过类似行为。DSI尚未确定受影响的全部人数，也未证实是否存在任何商业分销网络。

司法部于10月15日发布公告，此前该部门已就此案展开一年多的调查。常务秘书皮亚西里·瓦塔纳瓦朗库尔与特别调查局局长及高级调查员一同公布了调查结果。

简报证实，查获了 5000 多份色情文件，其中包括 3000 多份疑似儿童性虐待文件。

目前已确认至少四名受害者，调查人员仍在继续调查是否存在其他受害者。班查因刑事法院第5933/2569号逮捕令被捕，并于10月14日出庭受审。他目前面临伪造文件、性胁迫和儿童性虐待材料等刑事指控。“黑色研究行动”仍在由特别调查部（DSI）进行调查中。
