The fact-finding committee assigned to probe former Mae Hong Son Governor Suebsak Iamwichan’s alleged involvement in a forced prostitution ring is expected to complete its investigation and submit a report to the Interior Minister and the Permanent Secretary by May 19, Interior Ministry deputy permanent secretary Prayoon Rattanasenee said on Monday.
In his capacity as head of the Interior Ministry’s fact-finding panel, Prayoon said the committee had gathered information that covered all related points since April 26, including the testimony of witnesses in Mae Hong Son and the victim who claimed the ex-governor bought sex services from her.
Suebsak has denied accusations that he has been a customer of the child sex ring.
He has been transferred to an inactive post in Bangkok until an investigation is completed.
