The Cabinet on Tuesday shifted Pol Major Suriya Singhakamol from the powerful post of Department of Special Investigation (DSI) chief to that of the Justice Ministry’s deputy permanent secretary.

The Anti-Money Laundering Office will next week make clear what action it will take against former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra’s son, Panthongtae, accused in a money laundering case involving Krungthai Bank in 2008, said Department of Special Investigation chief Pol General Pisit Wongmuang yesterday.
