Case filed on foreign businessman's behalf

- WASSAYOS NGAMKHAM

A lawyer representing foreign businessman Benjamin Mauerberger, also known as Ben Smith, has filed a 100-million-baht defamation lawsuit against People's Party (PP) MP Rangsiman Rome.

Thanadon Suwannarit, a legal adviser to the Agriculture Minister, Capt Thamanat Prompow, and also acting on behalf of Mr Mauerberger, filed the lawsuit.

The case stems from Mr Rangsiman's speech in parliament on Sept 30, in which he alleged that Mr Mauerberger was linked to scam gangs and call-centre operations.

Mr Thanadon said the Criminal Court had accepted the case, with a hearing scheduled for Nov 24.
