On Wednesday, December 11, 2024 at 8:30 a.m.,
Police Major Yutthana Praedam, Director-General of the Department of Special
Investigation (DSI), received a complaint from Mrs. Paveena Hongsakul,
President of the Paveena Hongsakul Foundation for Children and Women, along
with 70 representatives of victims. The complaint concerns a request for the
DSI to be the main agency in coordinating with the Bank of Thailand and
investigating a company that helps close debts by having debtors buy many
condominium units each, leading to an inability to make payments. The total
damage is worth over 3 billion baht.
The Director-General has accepted the case for preliminary investigation and has advised the victims to also file a complaint with the Economic Crime Suppression Division (ECD) for the benefit of continuous legal proceedings in case the case does not fall under the category of special cases within the DSI's jurisdiction.
