Mae Fah Luang University has questioned the authenticity of a previous teacher’s state that she was mentally ill, which she cited as justification for quitting her job to pay for her PhD scholarship.

The former teacher, also known as” Dr. Keng,” is being sued by the school for 16 million baht in restitution.

Mae Fah Luang stated in a speech that she had never filed any documents to prove her mental interruption when she resigned from her position in response to an in-depth TV interview with Dr. Keng that aired on Monday night. &nbsp,

On October 3, 2005, Dr. Keng began teaching at the university’s school of management, according to the speech. She received scholarships from the college and the Ministry of Science and Technology at the time on September 17, 2008, to do a postgraduate degree at Kent University in England.

Dr. Keng returned to work at the university on August 2, 2013, after college. She submitted her departure, which became effective on September 1, 2014, only over a year later, on August 19, 2014.

According to the speech, Dr. Keng later approved her departure after confirming her decision to resign and acknowledging the terms of fellowship payment.

The original teacher was required to pay back the Finance Ministry’s scholarships totaling 630, 207.46 ringgit and 194, 730 pounds, as well as the University of Mae Fah Luang University, in accordance with the terms of her fellowship contracts and the rules of the Ministry of Science and Technology at the time.

Scholarship award recipients are free from payments under the Finance Ministry’s contracts and regulations if they can demonstrate that their emotional state prevented them from paying off the debts with medical documentation from a public hospital.

However, the statement stated that Dr. Keng had always submitted for medical documentation to the university during her tenure or prior to her resignation.

Eventually, Dr. Keng presented clinical evidence to the Administrative Court in the province of Chiang Mai, but it was too late for her to follow through on her fellowship agreements. So, the Chiang Mai judge ruled that she had to pay back her scholarships.

On April 18 of this year, Dr. Keng filed an appeal with the Supreme Administrative Court.

Mae Fah Luang stated in the assertion that a settlement is not possible while the test is still going on. It claimed that the university had supported Dr. Keng’s desire to study abroad and had always treated her very and honestly.

The college asserted that it would follow the Supreme Administrative Court’s decision and that its actions in relation to Dr. Keng were based on legal treatments and conditions.

The Ministry of Social and Family Development ( MSF ) stated on Monday ( Dec 4 ) in response to questions from CNA that the girl did not “disclose the abuse to them” until she told a school teacher.

The 39-year-old man received a 10-year prison sentence and nine wood strokes on Tuesday for his crimes.

Her house left with the pair resumed from June 2020 to August 2020, usually for two to three days at a time, following the COVID-19″ circuit break” in April and May 2020.

The man began sexually abusing her in September of that year by asking her to take off her clothes so she could engage in an “activity” in front of a picture.

In the first quarter of that quarter, he repeatedly assaulted her as well.

She started extended house left with the few despite the abuse, and on September 15, 2020, she started staying at their house full-time.

The man started assaulting the woman biologically almost every day. During the attack, the woman may experience stress attacks.

While the adoption process was still going on, the man and his wife were officially designated “kith carers” by MSF on October 4, 2020.

According to MSF, Kith carers are non-familial individuals who are known to a child through home or community connections and are not listed as foster parents.

Up until the middle of November, he assaulted the woman biologically almost every day for the following few months. The crimes were n’t found until the girl told a teacher on November 30, 2020.
