snoop1130 Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 NACC waiting for info on Prawit’s watches from manufacturers The National Anti-Corruption Commission denies foot-dragging in its investigation into the luxury watches scandal involving Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwan, saying that information it has obtained so far is still incomplete. Withaya Akhompithak, an NACC member, said his office has gathered enough information domestically but more information is still needed from the manufacturers of the watches in other countries. In seeking cooperation from these manufacturers, the NACC is required to rely on bilateral relations between Thailand and the countries where the manufacturers are based and relevent international laws. Therefore, it may take some time to get all information needed, but he could not give a definite timeframe for the completion of the investigation.

scorecard Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 I can't think of any reason whatever why information from the manufacturers is needed to make a decision on this case. Can you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you? They can confirm the actual owner, and the NACC can then compare the actual owners names against the names of all the dead people the DPM was friendly with.

This is complete B.S. If the brand has distributors in the country, they have to obey justice decisions in Thailand. The issue is not if the manufacturer is based abroad or not, but if the manufacturer has a subsidiary, agents or distributors in Thailand or not.

holy cow cm Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Each watch can be traced faster than I could say Rumpelstiltskin. So much BS in this invisible scandal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjaak327 Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Does anyone still believes this agency is independent and unbiased. If his surname would have been Shinawatra he would be impeached months ago. And a criminal prosecution would have started, with Prayuth using 44 to confiscate assets well before a guilty verdict He either has the watches or he 'borrowed' them as he claimed. Maybe they could ask the alleged owner(s). Flat out bullshit this statement... It places yet more doubt on anything this agency does, it needs to be discontinued and replaced by honest and independent people. I know I get a few knickers in a twist by saying this, but the evidence of what Thaksin claims becomes more and more evident....

BestB Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Waiting for what? For price in Europe? Price is Europe is irrelevant. Even if purchased in Europe as to bring it in still have to pay tax. Or to confirm its authenticity ? In which case he is guilty of buying fakes if not genuine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good points Sir and any Thai sub ' or distributor will have all the serial numbers , model numbers of any watch in question and to whom that watch was sold .. And if Rolex are sold in Thailand the same as the U K then payment which has to be either card or BACS ( no cash ) provides another link to who bought it .. And as already mentioned by another post if they were bought outside of Thailand then surely there must be tax entry somewhere for their arrival here which would be another link .. Its a credit to their powers of obfuscation that they have managed to boot the can this far down the road as it must be 6 mths now and still no nearer a verdict .. great stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkidlad Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Let’s say my missus’ best friend likes to borrow her expensive watches. They’re obviously great friends as she’s lending her very expensive watches. So, my missus passes away and suddenly her best friend is being accused of corruption because of these watches. Well, call me crazy - but the first thing I’d do is speak to whoever I’m supposed to speak to and tell them the truth. She really did borrow the watches. I have proof of purchase, etc. I’d do everything I could to help my missus’ friend. Silence just means you have something to hide. As I typed this message, I did think, “Why bother?” We all know he owns the watches and he’s an abhorrent and corrupt pig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmitch Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Or perhaps they've yet to find anyone prepared to provide the relevant (though not necessarily as accurate as their watches) ownership documentation in return for a donation to their Swiss bank account.

neeray Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 It's really very simple to determine the origin of all these watches. It requires a personal inspection of the back side of each watch where it will say "thanks for purchasing our submarines". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
