The results of investigations by the Public Sector Anti-Corruption Commission into corruption in the past year would be given to two Senate committees on Tuesday, the deputy permanent secretary for Justice and former PACC chief, Dusadee Arayawuth, said ye
He will initially present the results of PACC’s investigation into budget spending on disasters, tax evasion on luxury-car imports, Krung Thai Bank’s Bt7-billion loan to President Agri Trading Co that had presented fake rice-trade contracts to seek loans.
Meanwhile, Pol Capt Suwanee Sawaengpol, the deputy secretary-general of the Anti-Money Laundering Office (AMLO), said she had not yet received information about the Anti-Corruption Network’s recent disclosure that Bt16 billion were sent from Bangkok for money-laundering to Hong Kong but it was intercepted by the HK anti-corruption agency. Democrat Party MP Ong-art Klampaiboon urged Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra’s government to investigate the Hong Kong money-laundering case, which he claimed might involve politicians.
