      • More arrests in intimidation-murder of judge's brother/Judge is hearing B300m shares theft case


      NAKHON SAWAN: Police have arrested three more suspects in the alleged abduction and murder of the a brother of the judge handling a 300-million-baht share theft case involving a former deputy commerce minister and a dead construction tycoon.


      According to police sources, arrested on Sunday evening were Pol Snr Sgt Maj Thongchai Wajeesajja who is a Nakhon Sawan provincial councillor, Prachawit Srithongsuk and Chartchai Menkul.

      The three men, together with Narongsak Pomchan, are suspected of killing Wirachai Sakuntaprasoet, 70, who was abducted on Feb 4 and has not been seen since.

      Their arrests were based on information from Manas Thabnil, who was arrested earlier on Sunday along with former deputy commerce minister Banyin Tangpakorn and Mr Narongsak, the sources said.

      Mr Narongsak and Mr Manas are among three close aides of Pol Lt Col Banyin who were arrested in Nakhon Sawan on Sunday. Pol Lt Col Banyin is suspected of masterminding the abduction and murder of Wirachai.

      The former deputy commerce minister served several terms as an MP for Nakhon Sawan.

      Wirachai is an elder brother of Phanida Sakunpaprasoet, a judge at the Bangkok South Criminal Court handling the trial of Pol Lt Col Banyin for alleged theft of shares worth about 300 million baht from the estate of construction tycoon Chuwong Sae Tang.

      A ruling on the share case is expected late in March.

      Surveillance camera footage showed Wirachai being abducted in front of the court in Bangkok on Feb 4, the day he is believed to have been murdered.

      Police were scouring the residences of suspects and their relatives for evidence, and looking for Wirachai's remains and belongings in the Chao Phraya and Ping rivers in Nakhon Sawan.

      Suspects reportedly told police Wirachai's body was burned and his remains and belongings with him thrown into the two rivers.

      Police divers continued the search on Monday, reporting that visibility was extremely limited in the murky water and they had to search the two river beds with their hands.: https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand...judges-brother

              • Banyin defiant, but others confess in kidnap-murder case



              Five of the six suspects arrested and charged in with the kidnapping and murder of the elder brother of a Bangkok South Criminal Court senior judge have confessed, but Pol Lt Col Banyin Tangpakorn, the prime suspect, still denied the charges, a police source said on Tuesday.

              According to the source, the confessions from the five - Manat Thapnin, 67, Narongsak Pomchan, 49, Prachawit Srithongsuk, 34, Chatchai Menkul, 31, and Thongchai Waleesajja, 62 - came during intense interrogation on Monday night at the Crime Suppression Division.

              However, Pol Lt Col Banyin, 56, the alleged mastermind, continued to deny the charges.

              The six have been charged with colluding with others in the kidnapping and murder of Wirachai Sakuntaprasoet, an elder brother of Bangkok South Criminal Court senior judge Phanida Sakuntaprasoet.

              On Tuesday morning, a CSD special operation unit took two suspects - Mr Chatchai and Mr Prachawit - from Huay Khwang police station, and another suspect - Mr Narongsak - from Suthisarn police station, where they were detained, to stage a re-enactment of crime at two spots.

              The first was in front of house No 9/13 on Soi Ratchada 33 in Chatuchak district, where the three suspects said Pol Lt Col Banyin met the five other suspects and told them he had a job for them. He allegedly said it was the abduction of an elderly person. Pol Lt Col Banyin then allegedly gave them each a set of clothes and a cap to wear during the kidnapping.

              After that the three suspects were taken to the second re-eenactment spot, opposite the Bangkok South Criminal Court on Soi Charoenkrung 63 in Sathorn district.

              It was where the six suspects allegedly waited to abduct Wirachai on Feb 4. Pol Lt Col Banyin, wearing a police uniform, a helmet and a face mask, allegedly arrived in a Toyota Fortuner with Mr Narongsak, Mr Chatchai and Mr Prachawit on board.

              When Wirachai showed up, Mr Narongsak allegedly grabbed him and Mr Chatchai helped push him into the vehicle. All of them left in the same car. Wirachai was gagged with adhesive tape and his head was covered with a cloth bag.

              On the way, a threatening call was made to the victim's sister, judge Phanida. A car seat was lowered and Wirachai was beaten about the body. The car headed for Nakhon Sawan via Rama 5 road, in Bang Bua Thong district of Suphan Buri.

              According to the three suspects, Wirachai died on the way. The original plan, to abduct Wirachai to put pressure on the judge, instead became a murder cover-up, they said.

              After the re-enactment of the crime, the three suspects were taken back to the CSD.

              At 12.40pm, all six suspects were moved from the CSD to the Criminal Court for Corruption and Misconduct Cases, where police applied for approval to detain them for further investigation.

              At the court, Pol Lt Col Banyin and the other suspects refused to answer reporters' questions.

              Judge Phanida is due to rule on March 20 in another case against Pol Lt Col Banyin.

              He is accused of forging documents to set up the transfer of 300 million baht worth of shares from the estate of his friend and businessman Chuwong Sae Tang, found dead in the front passenger seat after a car driven by the former deputy commerce minister hit a tree on the side of a road in 2015. The car suffered only minor damage. There were no witnesses to the accident.: https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand...ap-murder-case

                          Wazza problem? They got the deputy Minister for Agriculture here who done jail time in Oz for heroin smuggling, and one or two other naughty things here in Thailand that he managed to not be done for ($$$??). Doesn't seem to have harmed his career prospects in the new, corruption free military juntocracy. Just another influential figure.

                                • Two women close to Banyin denied bail



                                Two women close to former commerce minister Banyin Tangpakorn has remained in prison after the Supreme Court rejected their bail requests.

                                Kanthana Siwathanapol, 30, a former golf caddie, and Uracha Wachirakulton, 29, a former stock broker, were sentenced to four years in prison each by a lower court without suspension on Friday.

                                The court found them guilty of colluding with Pol Lt Col Banyin in forging documents to transfer 263 million baht worth of shares owned by late billionaire contractor Chuwong Sae Tang.

                                Ms Kanthana and Ms Uracha later sought a temporary release during appeal from the Appeal Court by placing sureties worth 5 million baht and 3 million baht, respectively. The Appeal Court rejected their bail requests.

                                They turned to the Supreme Court on Tuesday for bail and the court turned down their requests the next day, citing flight risks.

                                On Friday, the Bangkok South Criminal Court sentenced Pol Lt Col Banyin to eight years in jail for forging documents to transfer 263 million baht worth of shares to his two associates.

                                The court found Pol Lt Col Banyin guilty of colluding with Ms Kanthana and ms Uracha to illegally transfer the assets of the late billionaire contractor Chuwong to Ms Kanthana, and Ms Uracha's mother Srithara Phromm.

                                Ms Kanthana and Ms Uracha were each given four years in prison.

                                However, the judge acquitted Ms Srithara, who was accused by police of receiving stolen assets, due to insufficient evidence.

                                Earlier, the two women claimed to have been Chuwong's mistresses and Ms Kanthana said she had a child with him.

                                Chuwong was found dead in Pol Lt Col Banyin's Lexus sport utility vehicle after it struck a roadside tree in Prawet district of Bangkok in June 2015. Pol Lt Col Banyin, who was the driver, claimed they were friends and that it was an accident. Police suspected he had Chuwong murdered and the accident was staged to cover the crime. The investigation for the possible murder is ongoing.: https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand...in-denied-bail
