I guess your first step from that would be getting a legal opinion on the term "reside" but I don't see how you could claim to reside in Thailand on a DTV
that makes no sense. People can get married anywhere so it makes sense they can also get divorced anywhere. I suspect what's important is that the marriage is registered/legally recognised in the country they want to get divorced in
that police order predates the DTV. It was specifically mentioned in the announcement of the DTV visa that was published in the Royal Gazette
"Section 5 Aliens and their dependents who have been granted a special tourist visa (Destination Thailand Visa: DTV) and later wish to change the visa type or apply for a visa to temporarily stay in the Kingdom for other purposes may do so and the original special tourist visa (Destination Thailand Visa: DTV) shall be invalid. However, consideration of permission to change the visa type and to temporarily stay in the Kingdom for other purposes shall be in accordance with the criteria, methods and conditions set by the Immigration Bureau."
