Illegal networks in four provinces face huge tax bills and criminal prosecution.





SIX MAJOR loan-shark networks are facing legal action for operating illegally and not paying taxes.

The groups have a total cash flow of about Bt1.4 billion and own 3,400 rai of land. To date, they have also sued 1,800 debtors for not repaying their loans, authorities say.

“Some of these networks have never paid taxes,” Department of Special Investigation (DSI) director-general Colonel Paisit Wongmuang said yesterday.
