ITD boss Premchai turns himself in to police today

By Thai PBS

 

 

Italian Thai Development president and CEO Premchai Karnasuta turned himself in to the police at the Natural Resources and Environmental Crime Suppression Division on Wednesday morning for acknowledgement of three charges.

 

Premchai was escorted by his lawyer as he arrived this morning to acknowledge the charge filed by the Natural Resources and Environmental Crime Suppression Division police for possession of wildlife carcasses without permits.

 

He was summoned to acknowledge the charges today but his wife, Mrs Kanika Karnasuta, did not show up. Mrs Kanika was charged for having in possession African ivory tusks, while the official, Mrs Wandee Somphum, who registered her tusks as Thai pet elephant tusks was also charged for different charge.

He must have got all his ducks in a row... Time for the real farce to begin :)

All the cynics, saying he would not return from his Bangladesh trip..............................WRONG again !

He doesn't need to run away. I think nearly everyone has worked out already that he is not going to be going to prison, so the show will run and a sweet deal for him will no doubt be worked out before the finale.

Even if they did say he wouldn't return, that doesn't mean they're cynics. They maybe don't understand how much money he really has. 

 

Come back in the future and say 'wrong again' when he goes to prison. By the way, he ain't going to prison. 

I was erring on the side that at least this bloke has the dignity to show up, but on balance this is where his cash cow is so better all round to tolerate the process unto its "slap on the wrist"  conclusion.

I must admit I am thoroughly surprised that he actually turned up in person. Perhaps he is still (rightly) convinced that nothing is going to happen to him. But if the heat should turn up against all odds, I am certain he has already laid out his very own "Yingluck plan".
