Police look to impound 30 ‘Magic Skin’ cars

Police are impounding 30 luxury cars worth Bt68 million and will soon summon for interviews on May 26 the six Thai celebrities who gave "product review" advertisements for food supplement products accused of being substandard and illegal, a senior police said on Wednesday.

 

As the chief investigator in the probe against controversial Magic Skin products, national police deputy chief Pol General Weerachai Songmetta said the police had evidence of audio clip of a conversation between Magic Skin business owner Wannapa Poungson and another person about transferring her cars and other assets to avoid being seized by the authorities during the investigation.

 

Weerachai said police found that Wannapa had 15 cars worth Bt40 million in her name while her husband Korn Poungson, also a suspect, had another 15 cars worth Bt28 million in his name.

 

The police would impound them for inspection if they were bought with ill-gotten money, he said, warning that others who might be involved in asset transfers could be held accountable.

 

Police already asked the Land Transport Office to report car ownership transfers to the case investigators immediately, he said. Weerachai said police will soon summon six celebrities to testify and possibly hear charges on May 26.

 

They are "Miss Tiffany 2012" beauty peageant Nisamanee "Nat" Lertworapong, actress Esther Supreeleela, actress Sririta Jensen, actress Kaneungnij "Rodmay" Jaksamittanon, actress and singer Namcha Sheranut Yusananda and actor Phupoom "Ken" Phongpanu.

 

Former deputy superintendent of the police special branch and Don Muang Modern Market operator's adviser Pol Lt-Colonel Santhana Prayoonrat complained to the national police chief to probe three police generals, including Weerachai, for alleged discrimination and bullying.

 

But Weerachai said the multiple raids on the market were part of a normal, legal investigation. "I'm just doing my job.I am not an opponent and have no close, personal relationship [with Santhana]. ... I am not afraid of lawsuits. If the police are afraid of suspects, who can the public depend on? If you do things for the public, the law will protect you," he said.

If true, then sir, you are indeed a rare creature.

To assess  the issue on a deeper insight with regard to the efficiency of the food supplements, we would need pictures of those hotties in bikinis please...

When I read the names of the celebrities in the OP, I guess there must be at least 2 "guys" in the pictures.

And in whose garages will those "impounded" cars end up in? Silly question.

Same as always...the vain selling vanity products. It is a shame that it has got to the point where so many can be beguiled by B-list celebs who have simply agreed to anything that is offered to them to promote for a price. It's actually a sad reflection on the general public too for being so moronically trusting...so brainwashed.

I  think the other "he" is unnamed in the rogues gallery, but here "she" is at work:

Further evidence of the increasing moral awareness in Thailand.

 

Government concerned this may affect the international reputation of Thailand.

Every person  involved in this should be locked up for a long time.

They are playing with gullible women, who have a fascination to have whiter skin .

Just think how much money women here spend on whitening creams.

My wife along with many thousands of women spends a serious amount of money on these so-called whitening creams.

What research have you done to show whitening products dont work

Should have paid the money. A full brown envelope cures many ills in Thailand.
