The Election Commission (EC) has decided to seek criminal action against Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit and 15 other former Future Forward Party (FFP) officials over the 191.2-million-baht loan that led to its dissolution, a source said on Monday.
The source said Mr Thanathorn will face a charge under Section 66 (1) of the Political Parties Act, which limits donations to 10 million baht per donor per year. If found guilty, the former FFP leader could be jailed for five years and be fined 100,000 baht. A court can also order a five-year ban on political activities.
