BANGKOK: -- A CRIMINAL Court has issued arrest warrants for eight people who were relatives and close aides to Pasit Ariyalapit, who has been detained on fraud charges over a much-publicised alleged tour scam, a senior police officer said Monday.

 

The eight were already being held at the 11th Military Circle in Bangkok, Pol Maj General Sutin Sappuang, chief of the Crime Suppression Division, said.

 

The eight will be handed over to Crime Suppression police today for further prosecution, Sutin said.

 

Police will charge Pasit, better known as “Shogun”, for allegedly being involved in a secret society. She is now being held at the Central Women’s Correctional Institution pending further inquiries.

 

He said police were talking to an actor, Chatmongkon Bampen, who was one of seven passengers on Pasit’s chartered flights. 

 

The actor meanwhile met police and claimed he was also a victim of the “tour scam” as he had bought a trip to Japan with Pasit’s network. He said he went to Suvarnabhumi Airport last Tuesday with other people but could not go to Japan, as there was no flight booking for him.

 

The Anti-Money Laundering Office has frozen Bt3 million in Pasit’s bank accounts and seized a condominium and six cars, worth a total of Bt10 million. The cars found in a southern province were registered under others’ names,

Bt3 Million ?, seems they are not looking hard enough for the money, should be easy to follow since most of the transactions would have been electronic 

Maybe more money has been found, but not yet declared.  

 

 

Why does shogun look so unhappy in this photo, perhaps guilt in terms of what she knows is about to unfold and take her to jail (hopefully for a long time and also her cohorts)?

He/she or she/he?

This and other fraudsters shoud be all put in jail.  What a bunch of low lifes.

They deserve to have long sentences for taking money  from people who work hard

for the money.  Shameful bunch of thieves.

In some cases people give up their jobs to sell these products, only to find out its a short fused ticking time bomb,in personal tragedy terms speaking, some lose everything, yet are to dazed to come out in the open, shy as they are that they are part of a nation wide scheme where many lose and a few win (a lot)
