Agency to assess if evidence is adequate to press charges in Krungthai bank money-laundering case

 

BANGKOK: -- THE DEPARTMENT of Special Investigation (DSI) will make a decision today on whether to file charges against Panthongtae Shinawatra, the son of former premier Thaksin, and two others in a money-laundering case connected with malfeasance at the state-owned Krungthai Bank.

 

The evidence was insufficient to take legal action against Panthongtae, Kanchana Honghern and Manop Tipwaree, especially after the Anti-Money Laundering Organisation (AMLO) failed to pursue charges, according to sources.

 

The controversial case is connected to earlier malfeasance convictions of former senior executives at Krungthai Bank. In August 2015, the Supreme Court’s Criminal Division for Political Office Holders sentenced Suchai Chaovisit, former chairman of the bank, and former president Viroj Nualkhair to 18-year jail terms for approving Bt8-billion loans to subsidiaries of Krisada Mahanakorn Group in 2003 for refinancing and land acquisition.

Time to get yourself in a big ostentatious temple surrounded by middle aged and elderly Thais. They don't arrest you then.

DSI decision due today WOW.

Easy to make decisions, but not easy catching crooks.

His name alone is sufficient for him to be guilty.

His name is reason for suspicion, coming from a family of criminals. The evidence that money deemed by the courts to have been stolen passed through his account/s should be sufficient to prove him guilty.

I wonder how the case against the PMs nephew is going...

If they took this long to charge him (given when this happened), then they certainly (if upholding the same time frame) can wait for a long time to decide on that case and not even be bias. 

 

That is the major problem here.. cases like this go so slow.

"suspended along with other cases due to a legal technicality"

NAAC  Secretary-General Sansern Poljiak: " we have to slow down for only two months so we can fix internal regulations and make them comply with the bigger laws.”

There's no statute of limitations problems, so allegedly the slowdown is immaterial.

How strange, it was reported yesterday that case, along with all others, will be held up pending resolution of implementing new law technicalities. 

 

Did you forget? Seems that Shin fan amnesia is still affecting some posters.

Completely biased comment. It is a country of criminals, from the bottom to the top,  not just one family.
