In late July 2026, iLaw Director Yingcheep Atchanont alleged that nine Bhumjaithai Party figures, including PM Anutin Charnvirakul, manipulated the 2024 Senate election. Over 150 of the 200 successful candidates ("Blue Senators") were found or alleged to have ties to BJT. The 2024 Senate election used a complex multi-level system across 20 professional groups and 77 provinces. The investigation, led by the Special Investigation Department, centers on allegations of collusion and election fraud, with ongoing scrutiny over whether the Election Commission will recommend legal action against all 292 suspects by end of month.
