A NEW BUILDING IN A PRICEY area of Bangkok was grabbed by Senator Upakit Pajareeyangkun who had been earlier allegedly involved in money-laundering and drug trading rackets and turned into the Ruam Thai Sang Chart headquarters, said an opposition MP.

 

During censure debate without a subsequent vote of confidence at parliament, Move Forward MP Rangsiman Rome charged that Upakit had bought the newly-constructed building and surrounding parcel of land in Soi Ari area for 101 million baht and turned the property into  the headquarters of the Ruam Thai Sang Chart which has been endorsing Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha’s design to retain power by contesting an upcoming general election under the new party’s banners.

 

Upakit had been earlier accused by police of involvement in the drug trading and money-laundering scams in connivance with Myanmar’s arms dealer, namely Tun Min Latt, who has been arrested and detained among a few Thai nationals since last year.

Here they seem to encourage foreign criminal cartels to set up shop, take a cut, and then when they get large bust them, sieze their assets as their own. Win-win-win.
