Pinky Savika’s Brother Released Following Forex-3D Acquittal
Sarayut Chaiyadech, brother of actress Pinky Savika, has been released from Bangkok Remand Prison after being acquitted in the Forex-3D fraud case.
On August 13, 2026, Sarayut Chaiyadech, also known as Kittichet, was released from the Bangkok Remand Prison following a court ruling that acquitted him of charges related to the Forex-3D investment fraud case. According to a report by Khaosod Online, Sarayut spent four years in custody during the legal proceedings.
Upon his release, Sarayut expressed gratitude to the court for the verdict, maintaining that he was merely an investor and had no involvement in the fraudulent activities. He described the four-year period of incarceration as a significant life experience, emphasizing that all investments carry inherent risks. Regarding potential future legal action against those who accused him, he stated that he would focus on reuniting with his family for now and leave such decisions for the future.
For residents and expatriates in Thailand, this case serves as a reminder of the high-profile nature of the Forex-3D scandal, which has involved numerous public figures and significant financial losses. While the court has cleared Sarayut, the broader legal implications of the Forex-3D case continue to unfold in the Thai judicial system. It remains to be confirmed whether any further appeals will be filed by the prosecution or if additional legal proceedings will arise from this specific acquittal.
