The arrest was made after Samut Prakan's deputy ISOC chief Col Prathuang Kaewthui received a complaint from Maneerat Saengdaeg, 42, that an Indian gang was collected interest from her higher than allowed by law.
She said she borrowed Bt5,000 from the gang and had to pay Bt100 as interest each day, or 2 per cent per day, and so far the amount of the interest was higher than Bt5,000.
The ISOC officials said Shivprashad worked for an Indian tycoon whom the officials would locate and arrest.
