DSI presses for iCon indictments

Indictments against two celebrities implicated in the high-profile iCon Group fraud case should have gone ahead because they likely played or participated in managing the business rather than merely acting as source in the Department of Special Investigation (DSI).

This was one of several reasons the DSI highlighted in its appeal to prosecutors, seeking to reverse the latter’s decision not to indict actor Yuranunt Pamornmontri and actress Pechaya Wattanamontree earlier.

The pair were among 19 individuals accused of fraud concerning the iCon Group under the 1984 Public Fraud Loan Act. The company specialises in health and beauty products.
