The alleged mastermind of the Forex-3D Ponzi scheme has finally been caught in Bangkok after more than a year on the run outside the country.
Apiruk Kothi was arrested on Friday morning at a condominium in the Thong Lor area, where investigators also seized several items, including a blue Lamborghini. He had repainted the orange supercar and planned to sell it in the grey market for 10 million baht, authorities said.
