Bang Khen police had now completed their probe and laid the additional charge against Sia Po, his wife, Juthamat Chantee, and friend, Bancha Chuenchudej. Sia Po, who travelled to the province to hand out bundles of used 1,000 baht notes from suitcases, said his casino friends wanted to help alleviate Thais' plight. Sia Po also faces trouble in another case involving fellow net idol and co-suspect Makharin Phumsaart, also known as Nay Wat Dao. Mr Kasidit posted a warning to Facebook about his ordeal, and contacted Hua Mak and Crime Suppression Division police. Mr Kasidit, meanwhile, does not know why he was chosen as the victim and is disappointed with the bank's initial reaction.
