PHUKET: The Criminal Court has handed down a 10-year jail sentence for encroachment onto 93 rai of state land in Phuket’s Sirinath National Park estimated to be worth B800 million.

 

Anek Lipracha was initially sentenced to 15 years in jail: 12 years for illegal land occupation, two years for presenting false documents to officials and a further one year for deceiving state officials, the Department of Special Investigation announced in a statement issued yesterday (Sept 27).

 

However, due to his co-operation with the court, by law his sentence was reduced by one-third.

Interesting to note in the article above, it said nothing is being done to gov't officials.  However, in the above article, they link to a story they reported on back in December and in that story it was mentioned that gov't officials were in on it.

 

>>“We know of at least three government officials, including the former Sirinart Park chief, who were involved in this case and they will be questioned by the DSI and face charges,” he added.
