According to the DSI, more than Bt5 million was suspiciously transferred to Amporn’s bank account.
Both Amporn – the director of Sema Uppatham School – and Suchao were summoned to the DSI yesterday, where they were interrogated.
“Both have denied any wrongdoing but we have found evidence against them,” Thanin Prempree said in his capacity as the director of the DSI’s Corruption Prevention and Suppression Centre.
Thanin said Amporn’s house was where the fees for exam cheating were paid and where exam answers were released in advance.
Suchao was found to have gone to Amporn’s house to get the answers, Thanin said.
Thanin said the DSI would summon Amporn and Suchao to acknowledge the charges against them on May 15.
“We will also summon for questioning next week test-takers who have unusually high scores,” he added.
