On July 16, 2025, Atthapol Songpum, authorized representative of construction contractor Jennarong Rueangsuwan, filed a complaint with the Anti-Corruption Division against a prominent company in the Srinakarin area and Ms. Maitri, an authorized director, over a loan of approximately 57 million baht intended for equipment purchases and construction of an international school. The incident occurred between October and November 2024.

According to Atthapol, Ms. Maitri contacted Jennarong requesting to borrow the funds for investment in equipment and construction of the international school in the Srinakarin area, totaling around 57 million baht. When the loan was demanded back, the defendants evaded the request and refused to repay, prompting the parties to discuss a construction contract arrangement. Over six months, only 500,000 baht was repaid, for a total of 3 million baht, after which the defendants disappeared.

"We previously filed complaints with local investigators and submitted a complaint to the Rights and Liberties Protection Center under the Ministry of Justice, but the defendants failed to appear at scheduled meetings," Atthapol stated. "We are now appealing to the Anti-Corruption Division to seek justice and pursue this matter through legal channels to the fullest extent."

The Anti-Corruption Division announced it will summon the defendants for investigation to establish facts and proceed with legal proceedings accordingly.
