A National AntiCorruption Commission (NACC) subcommittee has said that by May it will have concluded its investigation into corruption allegations against suspended permanent secretary of Transport Suphoth Sublomas well as his allegedly unusual wealth and
NACC deputy chief Worawit Sukboon, who leads the investigating subpanel, said yesterday that Suphoth would be summoned to explain himself on Monday before 12 witnesses on his side are interviewed and the case concluded for the NACC’s consideration in May. However, if investigators are unable to meet the deadline, it will be extended by another 30 days.
Worawit added that if Suphoth could not explain the origins of his money and assets, the NACC would push for a seizure of the assets. He said his panel would be sending a letter to Suphoth tomorrow asking him to explain his assets in the next 15 days.
