sriracha john Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 Dutch man arrested for forging ex-wife's signature Police have arrested a Dutch and his lawyer for allegedly forging the signature of his Thai ex-wife so that he could reclaimed Bt60 million worth of assets. Roberp Dahan, 44, was arrested in Pattaya Friday evening and the lawyer, Promporn Nualkanok, 46, was arrested at her law firm on the same day. The arrests were made under the warrant approved by the Criminal Court on August 2. Dahan's ex-wife, Nonglak Charoensuk, 31, filed complaints with the court that he forged her signatures when he filed for divorce and the forgery allowed him to unfairly retrieve Bt60 million worth of assets from her in the middle of this year. Dahan and Nonglak have parented two children. Nonglak said Dahan later fell in love with a transgender and filed for a divorce. - The Nation 2007-12-15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maestro Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 And only in Thailand -- it could be an unsubstantiated... An interesting viewpoint. On several occasions I got the impression that in Thailand anybody can file a complaint with the police against somebody without any evidence and the police makes no investigation but arrests the accused person immediately. If the accused cannot prove his innocence immediately then and there at the police station or pays money to the accuser to withdraw his complaint, the case gets sent to court. -- Maestro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexLah Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 (edited) Dahan (Last name) is not a Dutch name. Quote:The accused Dutchman is the son of the world’s eleventh richest man. Go here: http://www.forbes.com/lists/2006/10/Rank_1.html No Dahan mentioned. Mr. Dahan wanted all the marital property, including the house, which was worth 130 million baht. So who is he and where did the money came from? You can find a picture here of him: http://www.engaust.com.au/magazines/ea/100...sociations.html Now compare this with the pictures here: http://www.pattayadailynews.com/shownews_a...NEWS=0000004546 Edited December 17, 2007 by AlexLah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sriracha john Posted December 18, 2007 Author Share Posted December 18, 2007 Dutch Man accused of forging divorce papers arrested by Tourist Police Pattaya’s Tourist Police Division in cooperation with the Crime Suppression Unit from Bangkok intended to arrest three individuals who were known to be residing in Pattaya on Friday Night. Three arrest warrants were issued for Mr. Robert Dahan aged 44, the son of a prominent Business Owner in Holland, Khun Prom aged 46, Mr. Dahan’s Lawyer and Khun Preedar, who could not be located by Police and remains at large. The arrests were made following a complaint from the former Wife of Mr. Dahan, Khun Nongruck aged 31. Their relationship recently came to an end after Mr. Dahan began a new relationship with a transsexual. It is alleged that with the assistance of his lawyer, Khun Prom and Khun Preedar, fake Divorce papers were drawn up which contained a signature which Khun Nongruck claims was not hers and was forged by Mr. Dahan’s legal team. The papers signed over assets totaling 60 Million Baht to Mr. Dahan, which was just under half of the value of their Estate worth over 130 Million Baht. However, legal ownership of the assets belonged solely to Khun Nongruck. The local court approved the Divorce Settlement based on the papers which are allegedly fake. Following a complaint made to Police in Bangkok by Khun Nongruck, further investigations determined the papers may have been forged and arrest warrants were then issued. Mr. Dahan has been transferred to the Crime Suppression Bureau in Bangkok where further investigations are now underway. - PCN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monty Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 If he indeed is the son of a prominent business man (which I understand to be Rene Dahan, a very prominent Dutch business person, ex- vice president of Exxon) then I would say that pretty much the complete estate was financed by Robert. If any of the estate was acquired after being married, he would have been entitled to 50% of it anyway, and in normal circumstances the courts tend to follow this rule even with foreigners involved. Which I believe to be the case, otherwise the judge would not have released half the estate to him after having seen the (forged) divorce papers. Me thinks Ms. Nongruck was trying to cling to 100% of the estate (instead of the 50% she would have gotten in any case) by not wanting to sign the divorce papers herself! I must admit that I find it quite positive that the lawyers are getting arrested and implicated as well, seeing how they handle all the iffy land holding companies one would think they can work with impunity from the law over here!!!

sniffdog Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Indeed, his real name is Rene Dahan Jr. Daddy is (or used to be) the executive of Exxon Mobil, TNT, Ahold and Aegon. http://www.telegraaf.nl/binnenland/2840385...l__.html?p=27,1 The article is in Dutch, but I am sure those interested can find a way to get a rudimentary translation. One part (daddy's quote) is kind of funny though: 'It's the classic problem of people who like to marry with a Thai person, without understanding the consequences of such a commitment. Then big problems arise if people separate. I understood many Dutch people have preceded him. He had to understand that as the son of a rich gentlemen you're 'walking bait'. My son is 44. He's not a child anymore. At this age the relationship with my son is purely blood related, and nothing else.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tijnebijn Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 I have read the article in the telegraaf . His father was also saying his son is now released but has to be available for the authorities if needing to . Saying it is not too smart talking to journalists that his father is a very prominent person , that it is better to be silent at times when this is more appropriate . He is also taking care of his two children while being in this turmoil right now . Wonder if it was a less prominant figure with much less money if it would get to the media like this , probably that is what his father meant with it happened with many others before his sons .......

Tony Clifton Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 (edited) Recipe: 1 greedy wife. Too many witnesses that will contradict themselves later on. Her lawyer. Your incompetent lawyer. 100% of everything. Add a bunch of not so reputed and low-paid men in brown uniforms with the power to arrest. After an investigation, it was determined that the evidence pointed to the strong possibility that the suspects had forged the documents. Yeah yeah, this conclusion immediately comes from the same Pattaya Sherlocks who often declare that the guy who jumped from a building died of a heart attack or that others managed to stick a bag on their heads while handcuffed. They must drool when working on cases involving rich people. FRAMED! Edited December 20, 2007 by Tony Clifton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today he's in the hilton with the wife and her family ripping him of close to a million. She's presently on the prowl for another "fool." Yes that's my understanding too. Though I thiink it's changing a bit. A Hi-So Thai woman can usually get away with marrying a foreigner if she's divorced from the first Hi-So Thai (or Thai-Chinese) husband. In other words, she did her duty for her family's 'face' in the first go-round. The second time round is up to her.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
