Brothers behind car scam to pay fine
Play
Nareunart and Thanan Kuansawat, two brothers believed to be part of a luxury-car scam, agreed yesterday to pay a fine for evading car import taxes.
They also heard the two extra charges put before them by the Department of Special Investigation (DSI) yesterday.
Charges the brothers face are conspiring to forge official documents and using them, which is punishable by three years in jail, and conspiring to manufacture and import cars without permission.
The Customs Department will set up a panel to consider the fine, which could be up to four times the price of the car. Authorities will continue to search for others who might be involved.
