Additional documents relating to Pita’s iTV shareholding submitted to EC

13 Sept 20:19 Key points summarised by AI

Political activist Ruangkrai Leekitwattana submitted further documents to the Election Commission (EC) regarding Move Forward leader Pita Limjaroenrat's iTV shareholding, intensifying scrutiny.
The new evidence includes records of Pita's 42,000 iTV share transfer, minutes from an iTV shareholder meeting, and inquiries about iTV's operational status as a media company.
These submissions aim to aid the EC's independent investigation into Pita for allegedly registering his candidacy while unqualified, a potential violation of election law carrying severe penalties.
Ruangkrai, a Palang Pracharath member, dismisses conspiracy claims, stating he acts independently based on an anonymous tip and plans to provide more evidence, while also demanding Pita declare his assets.
