SlyAnimal Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 I’m guessing that they’ll want to make an example of him to show what happens if you try to circumvent the financial requirements visas/extension of stays.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is that committing fraud, surely it matters not as long as you show 800.000 in your bank and follow the new seasoning rules ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The police have no jurisdiction over contracts between individuals, and cannot determine who is right and who is wrong. That's what courts are for. The police seemed to be motivated to help the Lender, however, it is not yet a criminal case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moti24 Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Amazing (Thailand) that the police can pull-out all the stops to catch one guy, while there are agents running around scot-free, after committing fraud on a daily basis, right under the noses of immigration officers.

lannarebirth Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Indians are the chief money lenders in Thailand. Maybe less so in Burriram than Bangkok, but the same paid for enforcement will apply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
