‘Tantai’ Visited DSI as Witness with Documents to Clarify Matter as for Business Loan He Granted ‘Kong Salak Plus’
(Feb 27, 2023) at the Department of Special Investigation at Chaeng Watthana Government Complex (Building A) on Chaeng Watthana Road, Mr. Tantai Narongkoon, a well-known businessman and crypto idol, together with his lawyer, met DSI officers as a witness to clarify the matter regarding the business loan he granted Lottery Online Co., Ltd. He also brought documentary and material evidence to assist in his clarification.
Mr. Tantai revealed he had visited the DSI as a witness today as per a summons to prove that he was innocent as he had not been involved in money laundering (through online gambling).
He explained that he was just an investor who sought business opportunities that could offer him returns in different forms to generate income for himself and Titan Capital Group Holding Co., Ltd. He also emphasized that he had made a contract with Lottery Online Co., Ltd. to grant the loan to the company legally.
“Today, I brought the evidences regarding the loan, including 2 cashier’s checks, worth 150 million baht and 50 million baht, which showed the payment order of Titan Capital Group Holding Co., Ltd.’s account to buy the cashier’s checks ordering the payments to Lottery Online Co., Ltd."
"I also brought the document that declared the termination of our contract with Lottery Online Co., Ltd., clearly stating the cause of the contract termination"
"the lender desires to terminate the contract on the condition that negative news regarding the borrower emerges and causes it trouble conducting business, resulting in it not being able to earn sufficient income to pay the lender interest according to the contract.” The money Lottery Online Co., Ltd. sent back to Titan Capital Group Holding Co., Ltd. on January 30, 2023 through 100 bank transfers, valued at 2 million baht each and 200 million baht in total. I would like to confirm that it was the legitimate principal, and today I brought the evidence for that to show it to the DSI as well.”
Mr. Tantai added that he was willing to prove the fact that all the money he invested in businesses was not linked to a black-market or illegal business, and money laundering activities. If any unsubstantiated accusations made against him harmed his reputation, caused misunderstanding in public, and damaged his businesses, he would have to consider taking legal action.
