The veteran actress held a press conference and opened up about being accused as a defendant in a fraud case involving tens of millions of baht in damages. “Mham Wichuda” Recently, she appeared with lawyers Decha and Kung Yee Thanakorn, along with close friend Nook Sutthida, to clarify the facts. She revealed,
It began when the opposing party called and had their lawyer speak with me, saying a complaint had been filed accusing me of conspiring to defraud 40 million baht. The police had already received the complaint and were about to issue a summons. At that time, I hadn’t seen the summons. After hearing this, I knew I was not involved, so I said if I received the summons, I would fight the case. They asked if I wanted to settle, but I firmly said no because I hadn’t committed any wrongdoing as alleged. Then they said they would proceed with the case and hung up. I thought about it; I am an honest actress, so it’s unfair to have this case forced on me. Later, I got the summons and tried to meet the investigator, but the police were busy and kept me waiting for about a year and a half.
During that time, I tried to uncover the truth behind what I was experiencing, but it was difficult because I had no information. The opposing party had no evidence when filing the complaint. So, I was troubled and asked my friend (Yee Thanakorn) to help talk and find out what this was all about.
Actually, I’ve known them for many years, since before COVID. Someone introduced us at an event, but we only met a few times, so our relationship was minimal—just an acquaintance introduced by someone. Their lawyer talked to my friend Yee, saying if we wanted to remove my name from the case, I should pay 2-3 million baht. I was confused—why pay when I didn’t take their money?
Let me explain: the opposing party went to Korea for cosmetic surgery and met two doctors there. Seeing the business potential, they wanted to start one in Thailand. The Korean side suggested investing 40 million baht. Mham was not involved—she only said to handle the proper procedures, like buying shares. The opposing party saw that the Korean doctors were real and transferred the money themselves. Mham never got involved or received any money or valuables. It was puzzling why her name was implicated.
Mham didn’t solicit, persuade, or hold any shares, nor was she a presenter for anything. After the money was transferred, no clinic was actually established. Immediately after transferring the 40 million baht, the opposing party filed a complaint in Korea involving two doctors, then added Mham’s name to it.
I called the opposing party, who told me to talk to their lawyer. The lawyer said that if I wanted my name removed from the case, I should pay 2-3 million baht, and they would do so. I said, how is that possible? This is unacceptable because if she had done something wrong, I would have approached it differently.
I must admit Mham panicked and was very anxious, causing her stress. This felt like intimidation, threatening her with legal action to extort money. It raises questions why no thorough investigation or fact-checking was done by the police, lawyers, or the opposing party. My friend has known Mham for over 20 years from acting together, so she was deeply worried.
Mham noted that before the opposing party called to say they had filed a complaint against her, she was in Korea with Nook Sutthida when someone shouted “You scammer” loudly at the airport. At first, they didn’t know who the insult was aimed at, but they assumed it wasn’t directed at them because they were not involved in any financial fraud. Soon, the person stared at them and shouted while wearing a mask, then said, “Keep laughing; everything is already in the case files.” If she hadn’t stopped asking questions, the person would have followed and cursed her all the way.
They did not know this person, who initially wore a mask. When the mask was removed, Mham recognized him as someone she met once who worked as an agency in Korea, unrelated to the entertainment industry. They were not close, and there was no conflict. This person told Nook (not Mham) that if she wanted to know anything, she should ask a well-known 90s-era singer friend named K.
Mham emphasized again that she has no idea why the opposing party targeted her. They never had any disputes or arguments. The opposing party knows well that Mham never took their money, never cheated, and never invited them into any scheme. They weren’t that close. Yet, the opposing party charged her with conspiracy to defraud, even sending a summons to her 80-year-old mother’s home. Mham feels deeply harmed by this despite never wronging them. The opposing party also distributed this case widely, hurting her mentally and forcing her into this situation. She believes they are wrong. Additionally, on 9 Jul 2026, Mham filed a counter-complaint as plaintiff against two businessmen and one lawyer on three charges:
1. Filing a false complaint accusing conspiracy to defraud.
2. Submitting false statements to officials for official documents.
3. Extortion—threatening to demand money. The court scheduled a preliminary hearing on 21 Sep 2026 at 09:00 GMT+7 at the Bangkok South Criminal Court.
