Rangsiman Rome, a party-list Member of Parliament from the People's Party and chairman of the House Committee on Legal Affairs, Justice, and Human Rights, has disclosed updates regarding the investigation into the online gambling platform Shuffle, emphasizing that legal action against the platform is imperative.

The committee chairman confirmed that financial tracing has definitively revealed money flows originating directly from wallet accounts within Thailand, fulfilling the legal elements of an offense. However, formal legal proceedings have yet to materialize, prompting criticism over why state agencies suggested waiting until an October 26 meeting when such delays are deemed unnecessary.
The investigation into transnational gambling platforms like Shuffle highlights the growing complexity of tracking digital financial trails across borders. Utilizing electronic wallets often masks the true beneficiaries, creating hurdles for law enforcement and placing pressure on parliamentary committees to demand accountability and speed from state agencies.
Furthermore, the committee plans to summon the husband of 'Idea' to provide testimony next week after he failed to appear during the previous scheduled session. Additionally, Mr. Sirichok Sopha has been invited for discussions on October 24, 2026, to shed more light on the ongoing inquiry.
