Official Dismissed Following Corruption Investigation at Khao Sai Subdistrict Administrative Organization
A local government official in Phichit province has been dismissed from service after the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) found evidence of tax embezzlement and document forgery.
According to a report by Matichon Online published on September 12, 2026, a government official working at the Khao Sai Subdistrict Administrative Organization (SAO) in Phichit province has been officially dismissed from their position. This action follows a formal investigation by the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC), which concluded that the individual was involved in the embezzlement of tax funds and the forgery of official government documents.
For residents and expatriates living in the area, this case highlights the ongoing efforts by Thai authorities to address administrative misconduct at the local level. While the dismissal marks a significant step in the accountability process, the report does not specify the total amount of funds involved or whether criminal charges beyond the administrative dismissal will be pursued in court.
As this is an ongoing administrative matter, further details regarding the specific timeline of the embezzlement and potential recovery of the misappropriated tax funds remain to be confirmed by the relevant provincial authorities. Residents are encouraged to monitor local news outlets for updates on the legal proceedings that may follow this administrative action.
