PHUKET: -- Despite being told on August 24 that papers would be filed at Phuket Provincial Court against the developers of the Ace 1 Condominium project, which has never materialised, no later than September 3, the papers have still not been filed.

At a meeting held on August 24, Col Angkul Klaikueng of Royal Thai Police Consumer Protection Division told those who had already filed their complaints with police that “September 3 was d-day”, and that papers would be filed on that date.

However, Col Chaiwat Ui-kam, chief of Kathu Police Station today (Sept 8) told The Phuket News that because one of the key defendants is in hospital about to give birth, the files have yet to be passsed to the court.

“She is due to give birth very soon and she is an important witness in the case. We should really wait for her to be ready to attend court before we file the papers,” he said.

Didier Giesen, a Belgian businessman who is among the buyers of the Ace 1 Condominium units told The Phuket News that no progress has been made despite the promises made on August 24.

“We do not know what to do right now, we can only hope that police will bring the case to the court as soon as possible. I do not think this is a good reason for not filing the case. For me a pregnant lady is not a key suspect, she is just a scapegoat,” Mr Giesen said.

Construction of the 196-unit Ace 1 Condominium project, on Sai Nam Yen Rd, was scheduled to begin in February 2013 with completion in April 2015. According to an officer of project because of an internal dispute within the development company, nothing has been built.

Never, ever do any business. In Thailand! cheats and liars, are the normal way of life here.

Why does a witness need to be present when filing papers at the court? They would only be needed at an actual court hearing which will have a date set after filing papers. And the date can be set for a time when she has given birth if that is really so important. In any case it should be the courts decision how to proceed and not the polices.

They only said September 3 was d-day. No one said in which year. So folks move on.

"isn't there an Army Hotline for corruption" - why look to the Thai Army for anything? Just don't get involved in property, business, or a relationship here, and you should not lose. Simple, really.
