Upakit Pachariyangkun


Senator Upakit Pachariyangkun is back in the spotlight over his alleged links with a crony of Myanmar’s military ruler Min Aung Hlaing who was arrested in Thailand on drug charges last year.

 

Opposition MP Rangsiman Rome from the Move Forward Party told Parliament earlier last month that Upakit was a long-time business partner of Myanmar tycoon Tun Min Latt. The Myanmar mogul was arrested in Bangkok last September and indicted in December on charges of drug trafficking and money laundering.

 

Thai authorities have detained him along with three Thai nationals and confiscated over 500 million baht of their assets.

 

One of the three Thais arrested was Upakit’s son-in-law, Dean Young Gultula.
