Amlo freezes more than Bt300 million in assets
The Anti-Money Laundering Office (Amlo) has decided to freeze assets worth more than Bt300million relating to three different cases.
The first case concerns alleged embezzlement at the Klongchan Credit Union Cooperative Limited. Total frozen assets worth Bt227 million are in addition to Bt633million worth of assets frozen earlier.
The second case involves the freezing of Bt24 million in assets belonging to ex-monk Wirapol Sukphol, previously known as Luang Pu Nenkham. The frozen assets cover mainly vehicles and real estate. The Amlo has also decided to return Bt400,000 worth of Wirapol’s assets to the former owners.
The third case is linked to Digital Crown Holding Co Ltd, which is accused of public fraud. Assets frozen in the case amount to Bt74million.
Amlo secretary general Seehanat Prayoonrat yesterday said Amlo would also examine the assets of the defendants convicted in the Bt6.6-billion fire engine procurement case.
