Special prosecutors have scheduled the prosecution of "Boss Min and Boss Sam" in the D-Icon case involving public fraud and pyramid schemes, following the Attorney General's final ruling, on the morning of 26 March 2026. It remains to be seen whether the Criminal Court will grant bail or not on that day.
On 23 March 2026, reporters provided updates on a case in which the Attorney General issued a final decision to override objections and ordered the prosecution of Mr. Yuranan Phomornmontri, known as Boss Sam, and Ms. Pechaya Wattanamontri, known as Boss Min. They are suspects charged with jointly committing public fraud; jointly and deceitfully introducing false information into computer systems; jointly borrowing money through fraudulent means; jointly conducting direct selling and multi-level marketing businesses by recruiting individuals to join networks and agreeing to pay benefits based on network growth in violation of the law; and jointly operating direct selling without a license, all related to the D-Icon Group case dating back to around April2025(2025) CE
Recently, it was reported that following the Attorney General's final prosecution order, the case was sent to the Special Case Prosecutor's Office to draft the indictment and summon both suspects to file charges in court. The special prosecutor handling the D-Icon case issued summonses for the two suspects to meet prosecutors and submit the charges to the Criminal Court on the morning of 26 March 2026.
This summons marks the first hearing after the Attorney General filed the charges. It remains to be seen whether both suspects will appear before prosecutors or request a postponement on that day.
According to procedure, if both suspects report as summoned, prosecutors will notify them of the Attorney General's prosecution order. The special prosecutors have already drafted the indictment and will proceed to file charges against the suspects in Criminal Court on the same day, unless there are legal reasons preventing immediate prosecution.
If charges are filed, the two suspects must file bail requests with the court for consideration. So far, none of the defendants previously charged have been granted bail.
Previously, on 8 January 2025, special prosecutors filed charges against Mr. Waratphon Waratyaworakul, suspect number 1, along with 17 others, alleging "jointly committing public fraud; jointly and deceitfully introducing distorted or false computer data likely to cause public harm; jointly borrowing money through fraudulent means; jointly conducting direct selling and multi-level marketing businesses by recruiting individuals to join networks with agreed benefits based on network growth, violating the law; and jointly operating direct selling without a license."
The offenses occurred between 12 August 2020 and 31 August 2024 in the Anusawari Subdistrict, Bang Khen District, Bangkok, and other areas nationwide, causing estimated losses of about 649,912,290 baht.
The 17 initial defendants included D-Icon Group Company Limited, represented by Mr. Waratphon Waratyaworakul as authorized director and suspect number 1; Mr. Waratphon Waratyaworakul, aka Boss Paul, suspect number 2; Mr. Jirawat Saengpakdee, aka Boss Lab, suspect number 3; Mr. Klod Setthanan, aka Boss Peter, suspect number 4; Ms. Pancharat Kanokrakthanaporn, aka Boss Pan, suspect number 5; Mr. Thananon Hirunchaivan, aka Boss Doctor Ek, suspect number 6; Ms. Natpasorn Chatthanasorn, aka Boss Suay, suspect number 7; Ms. Yasikan Eksisnupong, aka Boss Soda, suspect number 8; Mr. Nantharat Chaowanpreecha, aka Boss Ohm, suspect number 9; Mr. Thawintrapath Phupattanarin, aka Boss Win, suspect number 10; Ms. Kanokthorn Puranasukon, aka Boss Mae Ying, suspect number 11; Ms. Saowapha Wongsakha, aka Boss Ummi, suspect number 12; Mr. Chetnapat Apiphatkan, aka Boss Tommy, suspect number 13; Mr. Hasyanont Eksisnupong, aka Boss Pop, suspect number 14; Mrs. Wilailak Yavichai, aka Boss Joy, suspect number 15; Mr. Thanaroj Thitichariyawatch, aka Boss Off, suspect number 16; and Mr. Kan Kantathaworn, aka Boss Kan, suspect number 19.
At that time, special prosecutors declined to prosecute Mr. Yuranan Phomornmontri, aka Boss Sam, suspect number 17, and Ms. Pechaya Wattanamontri, aka Boss Min, suspect number 18, disagreeing with the Department of Special Investigation's investigation officers.
Subsequently, the Director-General of the Department of Special Investigation objected to the non-prosecution order and referred the matter to the Attorney General for review.. On 17 February, the Attorney General issued a final ruling to the special prosecutors, deciding to follow the Department of Special Investigation's Director-General's opinion and prosecute both suspects.
Further updates will be reported as they develop.
