BMA, Aug 7-Srettha asks a lawyer to file a lawsuit against Chuwit, alleging that he has a hidden agenda - expecting political consequences for land purchases. Ready to claim damages of 500 million

Mr. Winyat Chatmontri, a lawyer who has been authorized by Mr. Srettha Thavisin, Pheu Thai Party's prime ministerial candidate, has mentioned the case of filing a lawsuit against Mr. Chuwit Kamolvisit, a former politician. in the offense of defamation by means of advertisement in the case where Mr. Chuvit alleges Sansiri company by Mr. Srettha bought the land and there was tax evasion that Mr. Srettha gave him the power to sue and prosecute Mr. Chuvit. The essence is that on August 3, 2023, the defendant was aware that on August 4, 2023, there would be a joint meeting of the National Assembly. and on the day of the said parliamentary meeting Expect nominations As a person who deserves to be appointed Prime Minister of the Pheu Thai Party before the parliamentary session. The defendant held a press conference in front of the media and the public at The Davis Hotel, Sukhumvit 24 under the name "Expose for the People EP 1" with a false statement. by announcing Accusing the plaintiff in front of the mass media inviting him to make news and broadcast live to online media both television media online media platforms in the manner of accusing the plaintiff against a third party for the general public including members of parliament Both the House of Representatives and the Senate must vote to approve or disapprove the plaintiff as Prime Minister. Including the general public who listened to watch the press conference of the defendant believe and understand The plaintiff is a bad person. It is evident that he is dishonest. and should not be appointed as Prime Minister. Before the press conference, Sansiri Public Company Limited published a public statement titled "Sansiri clarification on the legality and good governance of land purchases" confirming that the Company Confirmed that it has operated in accordance with good governance principles. legally Transparent and verifiable The defendant can verify the facts according to the correct facts. Both must be careful in presenting the facts. But the defendant did not check well before making such a statement. but confirms the facts and intends not to allow members of the House of Representatives and the Senate to vote for approval or disapproval for the plaintiff to be the prime minister And the defendant intended to make the general public who listened to the press conference of the aforementioned defendant believe and immediately understand that The plaintiff is a bad person, tax fraud, no good governance. It is evident that he is dishonest. causing the plaintiff to be insulted or being hated

Mr. Winyat said that the fact that the seller was able to get the ownership of the land by transferring the share back to the shareholders on different days. Therefore, it is not considered that such persons have co-ownership in the land at the same time. Later, when it was sold to Sansiri Public Company Limited, the only company with different people selling on different days. or even if sold on the same day All sellers are not subject to income tax as an ordinary partnership or non-juristic body of persons under Section 56 of the Revenue Code. Accompanied by the Revenue Department's order No. Por. 100/2543, dated 24 November 2000, Clause 4 (2), due to the fact that in this case there is no joint ownership. Therefore, each person who holds the collective ownership Paying income tax as an individual By dividing the money according to each person's share in the jointly owned real estate

The defendant also caused the plaintiff to suffer damage to the body and mind. It is a speech or news spreading the message. which disobeys the truth Damage to the reputation and dignity of the plaintiff. Or is it damage to the way to earn or the plaintiff's growth The plaintiff's lack of credibility from the public. Because the plaintiff is a famous businessman and person at the Pheu Thai party. resolved to send names to the Election Commission for the House of Representatives to approve the appointment as Prime Minister

I would like to note that Mr. Chuvit Meejit incomplete provide facts in a manner that causes misunderstanding and has a hidden agenda to persecute the plaintiff or not Accusing Mr. Settha to the people and members of parliament believe Mr. Srettha committed an illegal act. and contrary to good governance for political hope and is not beneficial to the country and the people as Mr. Chuwit said In which the plaintiff filed a lawsuit and demanded damages from Mr. Chuwit for his infringement against the aforementioned plaintiff in the amount of five hundred million baht. With interest at the rate of 5 percent per annum of the said amount from the date of filing until the defendant is fully paid to the plaintiff.

Mr. Winyat said he knew that Mr. Chuvit was sick. He therefore encouraged him as a human friend. But the need to sue is not to bully the sick person. different story because of Chuvit's actions constitutes an unlawful act shall not exercise the right to infringe on others We all have equal rights. If the right is violated Khun Srettha had to protect her own rights, otherwise ordinary people and parliamentarians or intelligent people would misunderstand Khun Srettha. and continue to say or do slanderous acts Although Khun Chuvit said that he was ill and was close to death, he didn't have a long time, but it was not true that what he said was true. The law is intentional misrepresentation. when he filed a lawsuit with the Criminal Court I want all parties to understand that the case is in the justice process. It should not be used to expand the issue or make another statement. Because it is necessary to prosecute according to the rights In summary, Khun Settha is a candidate for the Prime Minister. may be inspected But the people who receive information must be careful that in that information and must surround Not in a hurry to make a decision to believe This story is about taxes and is an implementation of the tax collection measures of the Revenue Department, not about tax evasion or causing damage to the state.-Thai News Agency
