Interior Minister Anutin Charnvirakul vehemently denied any connection between the Alpine and Khao Kradong land controversies, refuting opposition allegations of political interference or a mutual benefit deal.
Anutin praised the Prime Minister for resolving the long-standing Alpine land dispute, stating the land will be returned to Thammikaram Temple and that the PM's family, like other buyers, is a damaged party seeking compensation.
Regarding the Khao Kradong land in Buri Ram, Anutin reported that an ad hoc committee found insufficient evidence to revoke the Chidchob family's ownership rights, as the case remains sub judice.
