Arrest warrant issued for Miss Universe co-owner over $930k fraud case in Thailand
Thai police are searching for businesswoman and Miss Universe co-owner Jakapong "Anne" Jakrajutatip after she failed to appear in court for a $930,000 fraud lawsuit verdict. A warrant was issued for her arrest after she missed the scheduled hearing. The lawsuit, filed by a plastic surgeon, alleges Jakrajutatip knowingly sold fraudulent corporate bonds through her company, JKN Global Group. Authorities reportedly consider her a flight risk. This legal trouble adds to recent controversies surrounding the Miss Universe organization, including a viral confrontation between Miss Mexico and a pageant official, and backlash against the director of Miss Universe Thailand for disparaging remarks.
