According to the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau, a person has been detained for aiding a former policeman general in cheating on an interview at Chulalongkorn University’s Faculty of Law.

On Wednesday, a police squad acting on an arrest warrant approved by the Bangkok South Criminal Court on Tuesday nabbed Kanittha Lertbanjerdwong in the Bang Bon city of Bangkok.

Ms. Kanittha has been accused of obtaining a check sheet prior to the test and passing it on to the former police general who was taking an hour course at the university again in 2023.

After examining the photos stored on a former police officer’s cellphone with close relationships to the previous police general, the crime authorities determined that Ms. Kanittha was the suspect.

The former police officer’s phone was reportedly the recipient of the images from the test paper, but phone records indicated that Ms. Kanittha had sent them them.

Ms. Kanittha was not a university employee, according to the computer police. However, it is believed that she made friends with school officials in charge of the evening class.

According to the researchers, the suspect may have used her connections to get the exam paper.
