Lawmaker Rome to Summon Idear, Husband Over Asset Sources
Lawmaker Rangsiman Rome said he will summon Idear Suchada Thaenthap and her husband to the House Committee on Law to explain the source of their wealth, questioning possible links to scammers or money laundering. He noted that lending companies tied to the husband have gone bankrupt and some funds have people imprisoned, while Idear's past role as a secretary to the Digital Economy minister and a 40‑million‑baht bribery case also warrant scrutiny. Rome urged the Anti‑Money Laundering Office to examine the assets if suspicious income sources are found, stressing that the husband’s occupation remains unknown.
Lawmaker Rangsiman Rome said he will summon Idear Suchada Thaenthap and her husband to the House Committee on Law to explain the source of their wealth, questioning whether it is linked to scammers or money laundering. He pointed out that lending companies tied to the husband have collapsed, some funds have people imprisoned, and he does not know what occupation the husband currently has. Rome also highlighted Idear's past role as a secretary to the Digital Economy minister and a 40‑million‑baht bribery case that occurred during her tenure, saying these matters deserve scrutiny. He stressed that, as a spouse, if Idear knew of wrongdoing and did nothing, that could be another issue, and if investigations reveal suspicious income sources, the Anti‑Money Laundering Office must seize and examine assets to verify legitimacy, not to assign blame. Rome emphasized that it is premature to judge whether the money is legitimate because the husband's occupation remains unknown.
