One of four audio tapes that was recently made available to the internet has been the subject of a new anti-money laundering grievance against Gen. Prawit Wongsuwon, a former deputy top and head of the Palang Pracharath Party.
Prompong Nopparit, a former spokesman for the Pheu Thai Party, submitted the complaint to the Anti-Money Laundering Office ( Amlo ) on Monday.
A person with a voice akin to Gen Prawit asks the person on the other end of the line about the payment of money owed to him in one of the four videos that first aired on Wednesday during an episode of the Inside Thailand TV present sponsored by Danai Ekmahasawat for the first time.
Nowhere in the recording were any facts that could provide insight into the purpose or origin of the money used.
But, Mr. Prompong claimed that the conversation in the video suggested that Gen. Prawit’s alleged prosecutors could be based on the Amlo legislation because it appeared to be demanding money from him.
‘Extortion’
He requested that Amlo taking up the case for inspection. As a former deputy prime minister in the Prayut Chan-o-cha state and PPRP head, Gen Prawit is a political postholder, so his alleged comments in the audio tape may be taken as bribery and potentially subject to his own prosecution under the Amlo legislation.
Mr. Prompong recommended that Amlo follow Gen. Prawit’s money trail and those of the men referred to as” O” and” Pod” who were allegedly involved in the repayment saga in the audio clips.
The PPRP has responded by threatening to sue Danai, the acting chairman of MCOT Plc Co, for injuries.
Paiboon Nititawan, PPRP secretary-general, said the group plans to sue the three events for wiretapping or spreading media information.
Mr. Paiboon noted that despite a revolution statement, the anti-bugging law still has force and is still in force today and has the same status as a Supreme Court decision.
Mr. Prompong petitioned the NACC to establish an ethics investigation against Gen Prawit after the sound clips were made available. The original Pheu Thai spokesman claimed on Monday that the recording’s information had stoked suspicion that the money being mentioned may have been the result of illegal activity.
