Khaoput Updates Nana Case, Seeks Settlement and Justice

When close friends Vikki Sunisa and Khaoput Smithimanant attended the gala night for the musical "Muang Maraya: The Musical" at Muang Thai Rachadalai Theatre in Esplanade Ratchada shopping center, both granted interviews to media. Vikki spoke about the dedication and commitment of her husband Chai Chatayodm, who rehearses intensively for the stage production every day and had no time to celebrate his 50th birthday with friends.

Meanwhile, Khaoput provided an update on her legal case involving Nana Raybeena, which has been extended to witness examination scheduled for June next year. She expressed her acceptance of the legal process and her decision to focus on her career and enjoying life with her circle of friends.

When asked how she supports her brother during his demanding rehearsals, Vikki said: "I can see he's training very hard, rehearsing intensively. It's something worth looking forward to."

Regarding her brother's birthday celebration, Vikki explained: "My brother barely has time to be with family, but we celebrated at home and with his extended family. He turned 50 this year but couldn't go out to eat with friends because he's rehearsing this every single day. He's very committed. This is another project he's extremely dedicated to."

Asked about his current life, Khaoput said: "Life is good right now. Watching this stage production makes me realize we need to create happiness for ourselves. Last year was tough, so we're focusing on finding joy. In 2016, you'll see me traveling a lot. Everything passes, so if we keep dwelling on the same issues, we won't be happy. Our happiness is our priority."

When asked about friend support, Khaoput responded: "There's plenty of encouragement, sometimes even excessive. We support each other, going out to eat, drink, travel, dance, and exercise together. We create enjoyable experiences and build our life stories. 2026 should be a good year."

On the legal case progress, Khaoput stated: "The next hearing should be around June next year. It's still quite far off before the court appearance. This is the first witness examination."

When asked about the direction of the case, she said: "We need to be confident and happy, thinking positively. Just good vibes. The direction looks good."

Asked if there had been any settlement discussions, Khaoput replied: "No."

Describing what happened on the court day, Khaoput said: "I felt warm because many friends came. I only saw Jensuda, but actually about 10 friends went. I felt supported. Having each other there felt good."

When asked about the opposing party's demeanor during their first court confrontation, Khaoput said: "He showed no particular reaction. He kept his head down. But on my husband's side, as Jensuda mentioned in her interview, he just stared at us."
