rooster59 Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 DSI expects to wrap up case concerning 878 cheques within this month BANGKOK: The Department of Special Investigation is expected to wrap up within this month its probe into the money trails of 878 cheques issued by the former management of Klongchan Credit Union Cooperatives to seven groups of recipients, including Wat Dhammakaya. Pol Lt-Col Pakorn Suchivakul, commander of the DSI’s financial and banking affairs division who is in charge of the investigation, said that the priority of the investigation was on individuals and legal entities which have received cheques from the cooperatives despite the fact that the cooperatives did not owe them any debts.Wat Dhammakaya was reported to have received several cheques worth up to over a billion baht from the cooperatives although the cooperatives did not owe any debts to the temple.Pol Lt-Col Pakorn said that the DSI would take legal actions any recipients of the cooperatives’ cheques who were not supposed to receive them in the first place because there was no debt obligation between them and the cooperatives.The seven groups of cheque recipients include Wat Dhammakaya, a host of cooperatives, ordinary individuals, land brokers, legal entities and other suspects.

Gsxrnz Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Didn't they have the common sense to create fake invoices and pay the VAT to stay under the radar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesetat2013 Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) Didn't they have the common sense to create fake invoices and pay the VAT to stay under the radar? You seem to forget that when this was done, who was running the country. Who cut the budget for DSI. Whose son also received one or more of those checks. In light of this your question would be irrelevant because back when this was done, nobody cared or had any fears of getting caught.

ezzra Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 (edited) Didn't they have the common sense to create fake invoices and pay the VAT to stay under the radar? Same common sense Thaksin used when he sold his AIS holding without paying one satang in tax, which ultimately incurred the people ire and brought his downfall..... And someone should take a close look at Wat Dhammakaya, it's about high time to find out what is really going on there, being the most influential, richest and biggest powerhouse in this country....

NongKhaiKid Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 ' Wrap Up ' has many connotations, especially here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pimay1 Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 I have come to believe they are wasting their time investigating Wat Dhammakaya as it appears to be untouchable. It's amazing how these billionaire monks seem to be able to get away with anything. Case in point the jet set monk with the Gucci adornments.

I suspect that the suspects will recieve 500BHT fine. The money will never be recovered. Maybe some of it was used in the Gypsy land scandel.

Wilsonandson Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 (edited) A donation of 20 baht to 20 billion baht is still a donation. Big or small. Edited February 13, 2016 by Wilsonandson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
