Samart Janechaijittawanich, a politician, was detained by the Criminal Court on suspicion of being involved in an alleged money-laundering offence in connection with the image Group fraud case.
The court issued the arrest warrant for the 41-year-old man’s arrest on Sunday, according to a cause close to the investigation. He was the party’s former deputy official and Palang Pracharath Party deputy.
He was allegedly accused of laundering money because he had received cash from the direct selling arm of the logo Group.  ,
