Prosecution order on Saxena delayed due to technicalities


Public prosecutors have asked police to comply with two legal technicalities before deciding on the prosecution order against Indian fraud suspect Rakesh Saxena, chief prosecutor Seksan Bangsomboon said on Wednesday.

The five-member prosecution panel found two flaws in the police report on Saxena's involvement in embezzling Bt1.6 billion from the defunct Bangkok Bank of Commerce in 1996.

First the translated transcript of the police report has to be revised. Second police have not complete the prescribed steps for notifying the charges to Saxena as per Article 134 of the Criminal Procedural Code.

The notification of charges is incomplete due to the fact that Saxena was just sent back from Canada on Friday. It is expected to take no more than three days to revise the translation and notify Saxena his charges.
