Poyjairapee Teriyapirom, the ex-minister’s wife, filed the lawsuit against the chiefs of Departments of Foreign Trade and Legal Executions, after both agencies took action to have the bank accounts of Boonsong frozen as part of the government’s civil liability lawsuit against the ex-minister.
Boonsong has been sentenced to a 42-year jail term for faking government-to-government rice export deals, resulting in Bt16-billion financial damage to the state during the previous government’s implementation of the rice-pledging scheme.
Narin Somneuk, Boonsong’s lawyer, is also preparing to seek the ex-minister’s temporary release from jail, as he will petition the Supreme Court for a review of the sentence.
