Lawyers Tum, Saiyud, and Police Colonel Taem Analyze Punnada Wongphade's Case: Potential for a 20-Year Prison Sentence

Key summary

Lawyers Tum Sithra Biabangkaen, Saiyud Pengboonchu, and Police Colonel Taem Wichai Sangkhaprai analyzed Punnada Wongphade's case, suggesting she is unlikely to avoid prison, with a potential maximum sentence of 20 years, similar to the case of "Phra Alongkot." Lawyer Tum stated that using personal accounts and foundations to hire contractors to build a swimming pool villa is strong evidence. If there is no chat confirming that she was deceived by her husband, or scientific evidence, the legal defense will be difficult. Lawyer Saiyud pointed out that if there were multiple transfers of funds, claiming ignorance would not be accepted by the court. Police Colonel Taem emphasized that it is necessary to explain how the foundation's funds were used to build the swimming pool on Punnada's land, because the landowner must sign a construction permit, and everyone who commits a crime usually denies knowing anything.
