PATHUM THANI - A Chinese woman wanted for a 172-million-baht tax fraud in China has been arrested near the Talaad Thai Market after months of evading Thai immigration investigators.
Police said on Wednesday the 47-year-old suspect was arrested on Tuesday and wanted by Chinese police for using shell companies to obtain fake invoices without genuine business transactions, enabling fraudulent value-added tax claims worth more than 35 million yuan (172 million baht) in Shanghai.
Immigration Bureau investigators said she frequently changed her appearance, hairstyle, vehicles and accommodation to avoid detection.
