Money returned to victims of call-center gang

Vipaporn Pooritanasarn

 

MAHA SARAKHAM, 12th May 2018 (NNT) – Police are making good progress in arranging restitution of lost money to victims of a call-center gang. Most recently police returned money to four more victims and it is expected that by the end of this month the preparation of all the case files, which number 450 files, will be finished. 

Acting deputy commissioner of the Tourist Police, Pol Maj-General Surachet Hakpan together with Pol Gen Thanitsak Teerasawat, special adviser at Royal Thai Police Headquarters, and related agencies this week made an announcement on the progress of legal proceedings concerning the call-center gang that was recently tracked down and arrested. 

There are 452 relevant files. So far 200 have been submitted to the prosecuting attorney. The remaining 200 files are expected to be ready for submission by the end of the month and money returned to the victims. 

After a center to suppress call-center gangs was established, the number of victims has gradually been reduced. This is because once notifications have been made the officers examine where the money came from, seize it in time and return it to the victims as soon as possible. 

The money returned today to four more victims, had already been transferred into the accounts of the perpetrators but the officers were able to identify it and seize the funds in time. The total amount is close to 535 thousand baht. All four victims live in Maha Sarakham Province. So far 18.55 million baht has been returned to 101 victims according to notification statistics from 8th December 2017 to 10th May 2018.

That's not a fair statement. The chief of police in 2015 offered 1m baht from his own pocket to whoever found the Erawan shrine bomber.

 

(It's not entirely certain that they found they right guy, that any money was actually paid out and, most notably, how on earth a police officer came into such wealth that he would publicly throw around such an amount)

Well that is a positive for the Thai authorities.... I wasn't so fortunate in my dealings with the odd Western fraudster!

Probably from the reward they paid themselves

Then............ how can you believe any to the crap you are 'claiming'???????????????

and as far as a cop having a million baht to spare????? Just think about the millions he spent to get HIS 'present position".............

And ...... even so....... One good cop (which there are some) does not change the 'truth' that we know about 'so many' of them.... LOL...

All was a lot of crap......... when you post something here ............ we read what you say....... and we respond to what we see...............

If you are throwing a lot of crap around and we read it as your serious reply............ Then it will be similar to 'crapping into the fan' (it comes back at you).......

You replied to my post..... "That is not a fair statement" and now you say it was only sarcasm...... Sarcasm in not much value to a serious subject............ It's crap...........

Then you Quoted something and you admit you know 'nothing' about - about the Thai cop...........

But nevermind............. If there is more then please 'Personal Mail' me............. If you live near Pattaya I will buy you a drink and discuss it more........ Just us..... Not the whole 'forum'.......
