Bangkok:The Criminal Court denied bail to "Achariya" in a case involving public fraud and money laundering. The decision was based on the seriousness of the criminal conduct and a perceived disregard for the law. The court expressed concerns that if released, Achariya might intimidate witnesses or tamper with evidence.

According to Thai News Agency, the court evaluated a bail application submitted by Achariya, which included collateral, after the court's request for detention. The charges against him include defrauding the public, money laundering, and illegal gambling on boxing matches. It is reported that the group of accused individuals allegedly divided roles in committing the crimes, utilizing personal accounts and a donation account of a crime assistance club for unlawful activities. The case involves large sums of money being moved in and out of these accounts, indicating a serious offense.

The investigating officer opposed the bail application, highlighting Achariya's history of threatening victims or witnesses and the possibility of asset transfers, which could complicate the investigation. The officer argued that if Achariya were released on bail, he might flee, tamper with evidence, or hinder the investigation. Consequently, the application for bail was dismissed due to these concerns.
