The Bangkok South Criminal Court has issued arrest warrants for three individuals, charged with filing false reports against Big Joke’s wife.

 

The incident involves allegations made by 50 year old Sirinadda Hakhapan, the wife of former Deputy Police Chief Police General Surachate Hakparn, aka Big Joke, who reported the matter to Phra Khanong Police Station.

 

The accused include 50 year old Thanatta, known as Ning, 53 year old Phimpot Nomchopphitak, and another witness, all suspected of conspiring to lodge false complaints to implicate others with punitive charges.

 

On November 5, Phra Khanong investigators sought arrest warrants for the suspects after Sirinadda’s complaint. The court, noting the suspects had permanent residences, initially opted for a summons.

However, if they failed to appear, the court would consider issuing arrest warrants. The decision to issue warrants for the suspects was finalised yesterday, November 22, prompting further legal proceedings.

 

The court officially issued three arrest warrants with charges including making false statements about criminal acts, carrying a maximum prison sentence of two years, and conspiring to falsely accuse someone to inflict harsher penalties, punishable by up to five years in prison. Sirinadda reported the false allegations against her to the police.

“Ning acknowledges the summons following Big Joke’s wife’s complaint, asserting readiness to fight back, comparing it to shooting birds without exhausting ammunition.”

 

The charges stem from an incident reported on October 31, where Sirinadda alleged that the trio falsely reported a criminal offence to the police with the intent to cause severe repercussions, reported KhaoSod.
