Model 'Lookmee' Files Bankruptcy Lawsuit Against Actress Pu Mantana
After a three-year dispute, model Ratsamee 'Lookmee' Thongsiripraisri has initiated bankruptcy proceedings against actress Pu Mantana over an unpaid debt of 2.4 million baht.
On August 26, 2026, model Ratsamee 'Lookmee' Thongsiripraisri, accompanied by her legal team, announced that she has filed a bankruptcy lawsuit against former 90s actress Mantana Himathongkam (also known as Mantana Dechboriwat) at the Central Bankruptcy Court. According to Khaosod Online, the legal action follows a three-year-long dispute regarding an outstanding debt that has reportedly grown to 2.4 million baht.
Lookmee stated that the lawsuit was filed because the defendant failed to settle the debt despite previous court rulings. The legal team, led by Decha Kittiwittayanan and Amnuayporn Maneewan, held a press conference at the 'Tanai Klai Took' law office to clarify the legal procedures and the current status of the case.
For residents and travellers in Thailand, this case highlights the complexities of private financial disputes involving public figures and the formal legal channels used to address non-payment. While the filing marks a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict, the outcome of the bankruptcy proceedings remains to be determined by the court. Observers should note that this is a private civil matter, and further developments will depend on the court's assessment of the defendant's financial status and the validity of the claims presented by the plaintiff.
