Breaking: Court Grants Bail to Min Pichaya and Sam Yuranun with 1 Million Baht Collateral in D-Icon Case, Imposing Travel Ban. At the Criminal Court on Ratchadamri Road, following the Special Cases prosecutor's presentation of renowned actors Yuranun Phamormnontri and Pichaya Wattanamontri as defendants in the D-Icon fraud case, both submitted 3 million baht collateral each to request temporary release while awaiting court judgment. The court found that although it had previously denied bail during the investigation phase, the change in case circumstances warranted reconsideration. The court approved temporary release for both defendants during trial proceedings. However, given the large number of victims and substantial damages involved, the court set bail at 1 million baht and imposed a ban on traveling outside the kingdom without permission, with notification required to immigration authorities. Min Pichaya and Sam Yuranun posted 3 million baht collateral each, shocking observers who noted they faced additional charges related to multi-level marketing promotion.
