Pongsuk was hired by UFUN 'only to host party'
THE SUNDAY NATION

BANGKOK: -- The host of the "Beartai Hitech" show, Pongsuk Hiranprueck, yesterday told police that he was hired by alleged pyramid scheme operator UFUN to act as a host at the Black Night party by Urich club on December 13, 2014.

Pongsuk said he was paid Bt70,000 for the job and was told the party was to launch an e-commerce website and hand out awards.

He insisted his U-Token advertising speech at the event came from a readymade script and he had no intention to drum up membership for UFUN.

"If I had known then that UFUN's business was [allegedly] illegal, I would not have accepted this job," he added.

Assistant national police chief Suwira Songmetta said police would keep Pongsak as a witness.

The video clip of the event yielded incriminating evidence against arrested suspect Apichanat Saenkla, who hired Pongsak, he added.

Suwira said the case would be submitted to public prosecutors tomorrow.

He insisted his U-Token advertising speech at the event came from a readymade script and he had no intention to drum up membership for UFUN.

I wonder if he claims not to have enough brain capacity to understand the intention of the script and that he was probably distracted by counting the money in the envelope.
