Bangkok: Thai authorities said they had arrested a Chinese executive in a company that built a bangkok skyscraper, which collapsed in a major earthquake, killing dozens.
The 30 -story tower has been reduced to a huge lot of rubble when a 7.7 Magnitude Quake struck the neighboring myanmar Last month, killing 47 people on the construction site and leaving 47 other missing.
The Minister of Justice, Tawee Sodsong, said on Saturday April 20, April 20, April 20, that the Thai court had issued arrest mandates against four people, including three Thai nationals, at China Railway n ° 10 for violating the law on foreign affairs.
The Ministry of the Special Survey, which comes from the Ministry of Justice, said on a statement on Saturday that one of the four had been arrested – a “company representative” that he appointed Zhang.
China Railway No.10 was part of a joint venture with an Italian-Thai company to build the state audit office tower before its collapse.
Zhang is listed as a shareholder of 49% of the company, while the three Thai citizens have a 51% participation in the company.
But Tawee told journalists that “we have evidence … that the three Thai people had actions for other foreign independents”.
The Foreign Affairs Act claims that foreigners can have more than 49% of a company's shares.
