One of four audio tapes that was recently made available to the internet has been subject to a new anti-money laundering grievance against Gen. Prawit Wongsuwon, a former assistant top and head of the Palang Pracharath Party.
Prompong Nopparit, a former spokesman for the Pheu Thai Party, reported the problem to 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 for an instance of the Inside Thailand Television show on Wednesday for the first time during an event of the season.
Nowhere in the recording were any information that could provide insight into the purpose or origin of the funds.
But, Mr. Prompong claimed that the discussion in the video suggested that what appeared to be a request to be paid back by Gen Prawit might be grounds for Gen Prawit’s prosecution under the Amlo laws.
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 social official, so his alleged comments in the audio tape could be taken as bribery and possibly result in his prosecutors under Amlo rules.
Mr. Prompong recommended that Amlo follow Gen. Prawit’s money trail and those of the men referred to as” O” and” Pod” who were spotted in the audio clips and a part of the repayment saga. 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 information obtained from wiretapping to the press in addition to the slander.
Mr. Paiboon noted that the anti-bugging legislation is still in force now and has the same status as a Supreme Court ruling.
Mr. Prompong petitioned the National Anti-Corruption Commission ( NACC ) to launch an ethics investigation against Gen Prawit after the audio clips were released. The original Pheu Thai official claimed on Monday that the recording’s articles had stoked suspicions that the money being mentioned may have been the result of illegal activity.
