Court examines evidence in Nana-Wey fraud case; Jen Suda says friendship has ended and karma will take its course
Former actress Nana and her husband face fraud charges involving a 195 million baht pyramid scheme as a Bangkok court examines evidence and hears testimony from multiple victims and witnesses.
The Criminal Court on Ratchdamnoen Road held an evidence examination and defendant testimony hearing in case No. 508/2569 against Raibina (Nana) Intachai, a former famous actress, and her husband Parinya Intachai (Wey Titanium), along with two other defendants. They are accused of collectively defrauding the public through online pyramid scheme investment and other charges totaling 195 million baht in damages.
During the hearing, six victims filed to join as co-prosecutors. The prosecution presented 71 documentary exhibits and 39 witnesses, consisting of victims and police officials involved in the case. The defendants denied all allegations, claiming the matter was a civil contract breach rather than fraud.
The court allowed the six victims to join as co-prosecutors in the fraud and document forgery charges only. The prosecution's witness examination is scheduled over nine sessions for all 39 witnesses, while the defense will present eight witnesses over two sessions.
Victims' lawyer Sawat Charoenphol stated that no contact has been made by the defendants regarding settlement negotiations, contrary to some reports. He confirmed that while victims would be willing to discuss settlement if approached, the remaining victims will serve as witnesses for the prosecution. The total damages remain in the hundreds of millions of baht.
