Bangkok: The National Police Inspector General revealed that he had found a money laundering source for 'Kok An' abroad. He is urgently coordinating to reclaim the Thai victims.
According to Thai News Agency, Pol. Gen. Thatchai Pitaneelabutr, Inspector-General of the Royal Thai Police, unveiled progress in the investigation into the residences of the daughter and son of Mr. Kok An. They are suspects linked to a call center gang network case with outstanding arrest warrants. During a search conducted yesterday, several pieces of evidence were discovered, including multiple safes that are currently being verified. These safes were found in properties believed to have been bought with money defrauded from Thai citizens and laundered through real estate purchases. Each property is valued at no less than 30 million baht.
The investigation also extends to a company established by Kok An in Thailand, which is under scrutiny to determine its business dealings and any connections to the fraud. Interpol has issued a red notice, enabling international police to collaborate with Cambodian authorities to facilitate the arrest of those involved.
Additionally, it has been discovered that Kok An's laundered assets are not confined to Thailand. The fraudulent funds from call center gangs have been laundered in other countries as well. Efforts are being intensified to recover these funds for the Thai victims. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Interior is investigating the matter of Thai citizen ID cards involved in the case.
