The Anti-Corruption Organization of Thailand (ACT) has released a report on graft cases involving politicians over the past ten years in which the rice-pledging scheme caused the most financial damage at 130 billion baht.
According to the report, there were 61 cases involving 68 politicians in total.
These cases, which were covered by media reports, were investigated by the National Anti-Corruption Commission and ruled on by the Supreme Court’s Criminal Division for Holders of Political Positions and the Criminal Court for Corruption and Misconduct Cases from 2012 to the present.
