Amlo spots Middle East transfers to Deep South

Anti-Money Laundering Office (Amlo) has found a trail of financial transfers from the Middle East to Thailand's deep south.

 
Amlo deputy chief Suwanee Sawaengpol said on Friday that the agency is investigating if the transactions were involved with violence in the southern region.
Twenty seven agencies including Amlo has raided and investigated individuals and companies, suspected of financing insurgents in the region. Assets worth Bt28.49 million have been seized as a result during October 2012 to July 2013, Suwanee said.
