snoop1130 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Thaksin son's case postponed By The Nation File photo: Panthongtae Shinawatra Public prosecutors have postponed until October 10 their decision whether to indict the son of former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra and two others for money laundering, in connection with the Krungthai Bank loan scandal. The Office of the Attorney General (OAG) on Wednesday put off their appointment with Panthongtae Shinawatra, Kanchanapa Honghern, who is former secretary of Panthongtae’s mother Khunying Pojaman na Pombejra, and Kanchanapa’s husband Wanchai Honghern, because the Department of Special Investigation (DSI) had yet to submit its investigation report, said Prayuth Phetkhun, spokesman for the OAG. He said the DSI was conducting a further investigation “on many issues” involving the case, as recommended by the OAG. In July, DSI recommended that prosecutors indict Panthongtae, Kanchanapa and Wanchai. The OAG summoned them to show up on Wednesday to hear its decision on the indictment. The trio are accused of laundering money lent by the state-owned Krungthai Bank to subsidiaries of property developer Krisda Mahanakorn in 2003 and 2004. At that time, Thaksin was prime minister. Panthongtae and the two others allegedly received cheques for Bt10 million and Bt26 million tied to the loans. Their lawyers were informed by the OAG about the postponement on Wednesday. Prayuth, the agency’s deputy spokesman, said the trio would have to attend in person when summoned for hearing the indictment decision. On Tuesday, public prosecutors filed a case with the Central Criminal Court for Corruption and Misconduct Cases against Krisda Mahanakorn’s former top executive Vichai Krisdathanon and five other individuals and companies for allegedly colluding in money laundering, in connection with the Krungthai Bank loan scandal. The OAG spokesman on Wednesday declined to comment whether that case would affect this case against Thaksin’s son and the two others. “It’s too early” to draw such a conclusion, he said. Panthongtae’s legal team had acted on his behalf, filing complaints seeking “justice” for him and asking for further investigation and more witnesses. Complaints were filed with the Justice Ministry, DSI and OAG.

Eric Loh Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Money from the bank was paid in hundreds of transactions. That will keep the DSI busy for quite a while following the money trail. Prompt due diligence and urgency for anyone connected with the Shins plus it soon be election time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got a check for 10 million baht from a fraud his dad sanctioned. When caught he gave it back and thought all would be well, but lack his dad tried before. Some have been convicted and jailed for lengthy terms in this case already. The issue seems to be why they aren't proceeding and who doesn't want them too for whatever reason. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wondering when they will be called up by DSI. Those 16 bank staffs serving time got what they deserved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's about 1% of the total loan, so there have been many check receivers who have escaped justice now. I guess they would not like to be investigated (such as what happens to Prem). On top of it, CDC's Mechai was the chairman of the fraudulent company. My guess is that the Shins may well have some compromising files at hand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of makes sense really. A policeman from a dubious family who works with computers and uses that as a means to create an empire. And there is no one in the entire country prepared to take him down. So much for all the big talk these factions all engage in. Truly pathetic really!
