Thai police investigating a model's unexplained death were hunting for more suspects in a case that has captivated the country and sparked rare outrage over the treatment of women in a poorly understood sector of the entertainment industry.

Police have already charged seven people connected to the party after CCTV footage went viral showing the main suspect dragging Thitima's lifeless body into an elevator before dumping it on a couch in the lobby."We have opened the investigation into all these people who got involved in this scandal as well, including the agency, the manager... and the customers who enjoyed the party," Krissana said.

The man believed to be in the CCTV footage also works in the entertainment industry and has been identified as model Rachadej Wongtabutr. He was charged this week with illegal detention leading to death after he allegedly took Thitima from the party to his condo and left her on the lobby couch.The six others were released on bail after a separate complaint from another woman hired for the party who said she blacked out and woke up with her clothes removed.
