Earlier, the Civil Sanction Committee (CSC)
resolved to impose civil sanctions on four offenders in the case of
manipulating the price of TRITN
shares. The sanctions include a total civil monetary penalty of 34,379,151 baht (comprising civil penalties,
compensation at an equal amount to the benefit received or
should have been received, and reimbursements of investigative expenses
incurred by the SEC). In addition, the offenders are subject to a
suspension from trading securities or derivatives for 14 months, 11 months (2
offenders), and 9 months, as the case may be, and a bar from serving as
directors or executives for 28 months, 22 months (2 offenders), and 18 months,
as the case may be.
In this regard, all four offenders refused to extinguish
the case in accordance with the civil sanctions imposed by the CSC, which is
deemed a refusal to resolve the case at the SEC level.
The SEC has therefore submitted a written
request to the public prosecutor to file a lawsuit against the four offenders in
the Civil Court, seeking the imposition of civil sanctions requiring them to
pay a total amount of 40,923,541.40 baht plus interest,
together with a suspension from trading securities and
derivatives and a bar from serving as a director or executive, at the maximum
statutory penalties. In addition, the SEC has referred this matter to the
Anti-Money Laundering Office (AMLO) for further action within its authority, as
the unfair securities trading misconduct constitutes a predicate offense under
the Anti-Money Laundering Act B.E. 2542 (1999).
