The victim, who filed a civil lawsuit in 2013, has been seeking child support amounting to 40 million baht ($1.22 million).

However, the case was put on hold pending the cri‌m‌in‌al court’s ruling.

Sukphol initially promised to provide 10,000 baht ($306.81) a month to support the child, but ceased to deliver after a few months. He flew to the U.S. amid the DNA investigation but was extradited back to Thailand over several charges in July.
