Luxury Samui hotel raided in international money laundering probe
Department of Special Investigation officers and Ministry of the Interior officials raided a luxury hotel in the south of Koh Samui yesterday in an international money laundering probe.
Some 100 million is believed to have been funneled through activities at the Oriental Lodge.
A company run by the Thai wife of one of the money laundering gang is believed to have acted as a front for the crime.
The Oriental Lodge was also found not to be operating with the required licenses and is being prosecuted separately for this.
DSI chief Phaisit Wongmeuang confirmed the raid at the hotel yesterday as reported by Komchadluek.
