Court dismisses dereliction of duties complaint against NBTC official Pirongrong Ramasoota
The Central Criminal Court for Corruption and Misconduct Cases dismissed a complaint against NBTC official Pirongrong Ramasoota, citing insufficient evidence. The complaint involved her actions in dispatching notices to TV and radio operators, which a faction of True Corporation claimed breached the law and could impact their program. The court scheduled a date to review additional evidence provided by Pirongrong but refused to suspend her from her duties due to lack of justification. In related news, a court order may disrupt the merger approval between True Corporation and Total Access Communication (DTAC).
