Charity image shattered? Thai actress Boom arrested over 3 alleged offences
  • Thai actress Boom, who founded a foundation and served as its chairperson, was arrested at her Bangkok home by police with a warrant on the morning of Nov 6 for investigation over alleged misappropriation of donations, public fraud and money laundering.
  • Police found that since 2019, the foundation had recorded 1.8 million transactions involving more than 900,000 accounts, with funds flowing to nearly 1 billion baht; of about 900 million baht in donations, only about 20 per cent went into the foundation's account.
  • Investigators said more than 300 million baht was suspected to have flowed into Boom's personal account, while about 200 million baht was transferred to an account under her husband Got Athip's name; some of the money was suspected to be linked to the development of a luxury pool villa project in Phuket.
  • Police have frozen assets worth more than 100 million baht belonging to Boom's family. The foundation involved has suspended Boom from her role as chairperson and stopped accepting public donations, while the case is still awaiting a court ruling.

(综合讯)曾夺得2000年泰国小姐冠军、拥有逾200万IG粉丝的知名泰国女星Boom(Panadda Wongpudi),涉嫌挪用慈善基金会巨额捐款,遭警方调查。

据报道,Boom夺得泰国小姐冠军后,活跃于主持、戏剧及公益领域,多年来积极参与慈善活动,建立热心公益的形象。

她于2014年成立“行善组织”,长期协助灾民、弱势妇女及儿童,并于2022年正式将组织注册为基金会,亲自担任主席。

不过,警方近日调查该基金会的资金往来时,却发现大笔捐款流向异常,怀疑部分善款遭不当挪用。

根据调查,基金会自2019年以来的资金交易高达180万笔,涉及超过90万个捐款账户,总资金流动接近10亿泰铢(约4000万新元)。

另一份调查资料则指出,基金会累计收到约9亿泰铢(约3600万新元)捐款,但实际进入基金会账户的款项仅占约20%,其余资金去向引起警方怀疑。

调查人员发现,超过3亿泰铢(约1200万新元)疑似流入Boom的个人账户,另有约2亿泰铢(约800万新元)转入丈夫Got Athip名下的账户。

此外,部分款项疑似透过建筑承包商转移,警方怀疑有关资金可能被用于普吉岛一项豪华私人泳池别墅开发计划,实际用途仍有待进一步调查。

随着调查深入,警方已冻结Boom一家名下总值超过1亿泰铢(约400万新元)的相关资产,包括3至4栋房屋、多笔土地、约22辆汽车、6把枪械及大量名牌精品。

涉事基金会也已暂停Boom的主席职务,并暂时停止接受公众捐款。

据报道,泰国警方于今天(6日)约6.28am,持法院签发的逮捕令及搜索令,前往Boom位于曼谷的住处展开行动。

当时,Boom正准备与律师一同外出接受媒体访问,没想到警方突然上门,随即将她带回屋内配合搜查。

目前,Boom涉嫌涉及诈骗公众、洗钱及违反《电脑犯罪法》等3项罪名,丈夫Got Athip则涉嫌共同洗钱。

对于接连爆出的指控,Boom先前曾公开表示,自己愿意配合司法调查,也没有逃亡打算。

她同时向公众、基金会董事及过去信任她的人表达歉意,并表示:“哪里有错,就按照错的地方承担。”

不过,警方也强调,遭到逮捕及被指控涉嫌犯罪,并不代表当事人已经被判定有罪。在法院作出最终裁决前,仍应遵循无罪推定原则。
