The arrest of a 53-year-old Chinese woman with Thai citizenship and a long history of alleged criminal activities means more to police than just busting a document forgery ring.
Navaporn Phakiatsakul, who was detained on April 8 in Bangkok's Bang Rak district, is the alleged leader of a criminal syndicate involved in fraud, surrogacy and human trafficking, according to national deputy police chief Pol Gen Surachate Hakparn.
