Police raided 12 Pattaya properties worth ฿800 million on Wednesday, targeting suspected illegal foreign ownership and warning of forced sales within 180 days. Led by Chonburi police chief Police Major General Chatree Suksiri, the operation targeted 12 companies, 11 homes and 16 land plots. Investigators identified 85 Thai and foreign nationals, including British, Chinese and Indian citizens. Meanwhile, a luxury mansion raid uncovered three Chinese men, 100 computers and bank transactions averaging ฿200,000 monthly. The property belongs to a company reportedly owned entirely by Chinese shareholders. Crucially, the raids came just 48 hours after Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul ordered a nationwide crackdown targeting ฿14 billion in suspected unlawful property holdings, with investigations due by December.

Police launched a major operation in Pattaya on Wednesday morning, targeting 12 locations linked to property holdings worth ฿800 million. The raids focused on suspected illegal foreign ownership through Thai nominees and company structures.

Investigators identified 12 companies, 11 residential properties and 16 land plots covering approximately 50 rai. Meanwhile, 85 Thai and foreign nationals were identified in the investigation. Land officials warned that illegally held properties could face compulsory sales within 180 days. The operation came just 48 hours after Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul ordered a nationwide crackdown on unlawful foreign land ownership.

The raids began at approximately 6 am on Wednesday, 21 October, across Bang Lamung district in Chonburi province. Chonburi Provincial Police Commander Police Major General Chatree Suksiri led the operation. Officers obtained search warrants from Pattaya Provincial Court before entering the targeted premises.

Police and land officials examine 12 Pattaya companies and trace funding behind ฿800 million holdings

In parallel, investigators from Bang Lamung and Nong Prue police stations joined provincial criminal investigators and special operations officers. Officials from the Department of Lands and provincial commercial agencies also participated.

The operation targeted suspected foreign-controlled companies holding land and residential properties around Pattaya. Investigators are examining whether Thai shareholders were genuine investors or nominees acting for foreign financiers.

Crucially, police are tracing the money used to purchase the properties. They also want to establish who controls the companies and their assets. The investigation could lead to criminal charges and compulsory property sales if unlawful arrangements are established.

The 12 locations included luxury houses, residential investments and land holdings. Together, the identified properties have an estimated value exceeding ฿800 million. Police identified 16 land plots covering approximately 50 rai, equivalent to 80,000 square metres.

Furthermore, the investigation covers 11 residential properties and 12 companies linked to the holdings. Officers are examining company records, shareholders and the sources of property purchase funds.

Land officials warn of forced sales as raid uncovers Chinese nationals and computers at Nong Prue mansion

However, the properties have not all been declared illegally owned. Nor has the entire ฿800 million portfolio been confiscated. Instead, police and land officials must establish whether the transactions breached existing restrictions on foreign ownership.

Notably, a Department of Lands official accompanying Wednesday’s operation warned that illegal holdings could face forced disposal within 180 days.

One of the most significant raids took place at a luxury mansion in Nong Prue. The property stands on Soi Ruam Suk 12, Moo 3, within the Pattaya area. The mansion occupies approximately 1.2 rai of land, equivalent to 1,920 square metres.

When police entered the property, they discovered three Chinese nationals inside. Passport checks established that all three had arrived in Thailand on Saturday, 17 October. Consequently, they had been in the country for only four days when officers conducted the search.

Separately, the property’s ownership arrangements were not the only subject of police interest. Inside the mansion, investigators discovered approximately 100 computer sets and associated electronic equipment. The equipment included partially assembled desktop computers, processing units, keyboards and other components.

Some items also carried Chinese markings and serial numbers. Police examined the equipment and took possession of computer components for further investigation.

Police examine 100 computers, bank transactions and Chinese ownership of luxury Pattaya property

At the time, investigators had not established what the computers were intended for. Nor had they confirmed whether the equipment was connected to criminal activity.

Even so, the discovery prompted a separate examination alongside the land ownership investigation. Police have not announced charges arising specifically from the computer equipment. The intended use of the systems remains unknown.

On another front, officers inspected financial records belonging to one of the Chinese men. They discovered a Thai bank passbook showing transactions averaging approximately ฿200,000 each month.

When questioned, the account holder claimed the money represented rental income. So far, investigators have not publicly confirmed the source of those funds. The explanation is being examined alongside the financial arrangements connected with the mansion.

Land registration enquiries identified the property’s registered owner as Pattaya Vision Co., Ltd. Thai-language reports identified the company by its registered Thai name, บริษัท พัทยาวิสชั่น จำกัด. Investigators reportedly established that the company’s shareholders were all Chinese nationals.

That finding raised questions about its legal entitlement to own land in Thailand. Foreign-controlled companies generally cannot own Thai land unless they qualify under specific legal provisions.

Pattaya Vision faces land ownership enquiries as police investigate possible nominee company arrangements

Accordingly, officers are examining Pattaya Vision’s company registration and shareholder records. They are also investigating how the company acquired the mansion and its 1.2-rai plot. The central question is whether the company was legally entitled to hold the land.

In addition, investigators must establish whether any Thai nominees previously participated in the ownership structure. Police are examining whether the company’s ownership arrangements changed after the property was purchased.

The available reports do not establish whether the property was originally purchased through an unlawful nominee arrangement. Nor do they confirm whether its shareholders changed after the land was acquired.

Nonetheless, the reported Chinese ownership has placed the property under direct Land Department scrutiny. If investigators establish unlawful ownership, the company could face an order requiring disposal of the land.

At the remaining 11 locations, police examined company ownership arrangements involving Thai and foreign nationals. The investigation covers suspected nominee shareholdings, company financing and control of registered property assets. In particular, police are examining whether Thai participants supplied their names to conceal foreign ownership. Such arrangements can breach Thai law when used to circumvent restrictions on land purchases.

Financial records and shareholder controls under scrutiny as 85 Thai and foreign nationals are identified

As part of this, investigators are seeking financial evidence establishing who provided the purchase money. They are also examining whether registered shareholders exercised genuine control over their companies.

Officers are checking whether foreign investors controlled properties despite holding no registered ownership. The enquiries include possible offences under the Foreign Business Act and relevant land legislation.

The operation has identified 85 Thai and foreign nationals across nine nationalities. According to the detailed nationality breakdown, 54 are Thai citizens and 31 are foreigners. Chinese nationals form the largest foreign group, with 14 people identified.

Seven Indian nationals are also involved in the enquiries, alongside three Israelis. Investigators additionally identified two Russians and two Filipinos. The remaining foreigners comprise one Belgian, one French citizen and one British citizen.

The investigation therefore extends beyond Chinese investors and Chinese-controlled property companies. It also includes nationals from Western Europe, South Asia, the Middle East and Southeast Asia. However, identification during an investigation does not establish that every person committed an offence. Police must determine the precise involvement of each individual in the property transactions.

Conflicting accounts of suspects emerge as police demand company records and investigate financing

The published accounts contain a discrepancy concerning the number of people facing charges. One English-language report stated that police charged 85 Thai nationals with enabling illegal foreign ownership.

By contrast, the detailed nationality breakdown identifies 85 people altogether, including 54 Thai citizens. The available reports do not conclusively reconcile those figures. Similarly, one account referred to eight nationalities, although the published breakdown identifies nine, including Thailand.

Police have not released a complete list of suspects or confirmed charges against every person identified. Nevertheless, the investigation covers individuals suspected of participating in unlawful company and land ownership arrangements.

Those involved have been summoned to Bang Lamung police station. Investigators are demanding corporate documents, shareholder records and explanations of the property purchases. They are also examining bank transactions and other evidence of company financing.

Land Department examines ownership and warns illegal holdings may face compulsory sale within 180 days

The aim is to establish whether Thai shareholders invested their own funds or acted for foreign purchasers. Police are examining whether foreign investors exercised control despite holding no registered ownership.

At the same time, officials are reviewing the legal status of the land titles and associated corporate structures. The investigation could result in criminal proceedings, administrative disposal orders or both.

Before compulsory disposal can proceed, the Department of Lands must establish unlawful ownership. A land official participating in Wednesday’s operation specifically referred to forced sales within 180 days. The warning followed the government’s latest instructions to accelerate action against unlawful foreign landholding.

Under Sections 94 and 96 of Thailand’s Land Code, illegally held land can be subjected to compulsory disposal. The Director-General of the Department of Lands can require an unlawful owner to sell the property.

The statutory disposal period ranges from 180 days to one year. As a result, a six-month deadline is possible where the Department issues an order specifying that period. If the owner fails to comply, the Director-General can arrange the sale.

Anutin orders closer scrutiny of nominee transfers and identifies those financing suspicious land deals

The process may involve an auction or another compulsory disposal procedure. Sale proceeds are generally returned to the owner after applicable deductions. Thus, compulsory disposal does not automatically mean the government confiscates the entire property value without compensation. Owners found to have acquired land unlawfully can nevertheless lose their right to retain it.

The Department of Lands is also examining measures to prevent transfers between successive nominee companies. Officials want to establish whether replacement shareholders are genuine investors or participants in continuing unlawful arrangements.

This issue featured prominently in Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul’s nationwide crackdown announcement on Monday.

At Government House on 19 October, Anutin launched the government’s LAND ACTION initiative. He ordered provincial governors and land officials to accelerate investigations into suspected illegal foreign land ownership.

The Prime Minister also demanded closer scrutiny of companies holding land through questionable shareholder arrangements. Specifically, officials were instructed to identify the individuals providing the actual purchase funds. They must also establish who controls the property and benefits from its ownership.

Nationwide crackdown targets ฿14 billion in land as provincial teams face December investigation deadline

Anutin additionally ordered investigations into transfers designed to move land between nominee structures. The instructions followed the identification of substantial property holdings requiring further examination nationwide.

Government figures identified 1,397 corporate entities associated with suspected irregular ownership arrangements. These investigations cover 2,360 land plots valued at approximately ฿14.01 billion. Separately, the Department of Lands identified 13,088 individuals and entities requiring investigation.

The wider landholdings cover approximately 5,467 rai across Thailand. Anutin instructed officials to complete priority investigations by December 2026.

Provincial administrations consequently face a deadline for advancing enquiries into suspicious property transactions. The programme also requires closer examination of land purchases involving Thai nationals acting for foreign investors.

Officials must determine whether registered owners have the financial means to acquire the properties concerned. Investigators are also examining whether purchase funds originated from foreigners who subsequently controlled the land.

The government has ordered stronger checks on transfers involving replacement nominees. These instructions aim to prevent land remaining under unlawful foreign control through successive changes in registered ownership.

Pattaya raids follow earlier hotel and condominium investigations as European nationals face enquiries

Anutin has stated that legitimate foreign investment should continue under existing Thai law. His instructions specifically target unlawful land ownership and business arrangements.

Wednesday’s Pattaya operation followed the Prime Minister’s announcement by just two days. Even before that order, police had been investigating suspected foreign nominee property structures in the area.

Indeed, the latest raids followed earlier operations in Pattaya during August. Those investigations included a hotel and a high-rise condominium building. Police examined suspected irregularities involving foreign-linked investment and property ownership.

The October operation has now extended scrutiny to luxury residences and separate land plots. Moreover, the investigation covers a wider range of foreign nationalities.

The involvement of a British citizen, a French national and a Belgian places European investors within the enquiries. Their identities have not been disclosed. Nor have investigators identified which properties or companies are associated with each nationality. The value of the assets linked to individual foreign investors has also not been published.

Police seek answers over computers and rental payments as ฿800 million property investigation continues

Likewise, officials have not released individual valuations for the 12 companies or 16 land plots. The ฿800 million figure remains a combined estimate of the holdings under investigation.

There is no confirmed breakdown showing how much property is associated with Chinese or Western investors. Nor is there evidence that all 85 individuals will face prosecution.

The discovery at the Nong Prue mansion remains a separate focus for police. Investigators must establish the purpose of the approximately 100 computer sets found inside. They are also examining the three Chinese nationals’ presence at the property.

The men arrived in Thailand only four days before Wednesday’s operation. Notably, one man’s bank records showed approximately ฿200,000 in monthly transactions. He told investigators the money represented rent.

To date, police have not announced findings confirming the explanation or identifying another source. The equipment’s intended use also remains unconfirmed. No criminal purpose has been established from the presence of the computers alone. Pattaya Vision Co., Ltd. remains under examination because of its reported Chinese shareholding.

Land officials consider compulsory sales while police investigate 12 companies and 85 individuals

The company’s entitlement to hold the mansion and land must be established through corporate and property records. The remaining companies face similar examinations of ownership and financing.

Investigators are assessing whether Thai participants knowingly enabled unlawful foreign control. The Department of Lands will determine whether the evidence supports compulsory disposal orders.

Officials have not announced how many of Wednesday’s properties already face formal sale proceedings. Nor has a timetable been published for disposing of individual holdings.

The possibility of a 180-day disposal period nevertheless places the investigation within the government’s accelerated enforcement programme. The wider nationwide operation involves suspected property holdings valued at more than ฿14 billion.

In Pattaya alone, Wednesday’s raids brought approximately ฿800 million in land and buildings under direct scrutiny. The operation also identified 12 companies and 85 individuals requiring further examination.

Police are now pursuing corporate records, financial evidence and the identities of those controlling the assets. Land officials, meanwhile, are examining whether registered ownership complies with Thai legislation.

Where illegal foreign ownership is established, the Department can order the land sold within the prescribed period. If owners refuse or fail to comply, officials can arrange compulsory sales.

The next stage will determine which of the 12 companies face prosecution, disposal orders or further investigation. For now, the 16 land plots and 11 residences remain central to the Pattaya enquiries. The investigation continues under Chonburi Provincial Police, with the Department of Lands examining potential compulsory sales.

在犯罪、经济、生活、媒体、政治、泰国

周三，警方突击搜查了芭堤雅12处价值8亿泰铢的房产，目标是涉嫌非法外国人持有的房产，并警告将在180天内强制出售。此次行动由春武里府警察局长查特里·苏克西里少将领导，目标是12家公司、11处住宅和16块土地。调查人员确认了85名泰国和外国公民，其中包括英国、中国和印度公民。与此同时，警方在一处豪宅的突击搜查中发现了三名中国男子、100台电脑以及平均每月20万泰铢的银行交易记录。据报道，该房产属于一家完全由中国股东拥有的公司。值得注意的是，此次突击搜查行动发生在泰国总理阿努廷·查恩维拉库尔下令在全国范围内开展打击行动的48小时之后，该行动的目标是价值140亿泰铢的涉嫌非法持有房产，调查工作将于12月结束。

周三上午，警方在芭堤雅展开大规模行动，目标是与价值8亿泰铢的房产相关的12处地点。此次突击搜查的重点是涉嫌通过泰国代理人和公司架构进行的非法外国所有权活动。

调查人员查明了12家公司、11处住宅物业和16块土地，总面积约50莱（约24公顷）。同时，调查还确认了85名泰国公民和外国公民的身份。土地官员警告称，非法持有的房产可能在180天内被强制出售。此次行动距离总理阿努廷·查恩维拉库尔下令在全国范围内打击非法外国人持有土地的行为仅48小时。

突击搜查行动于10月21日星期三早上6点左右在春武里府邦拉蒙县展开。春武里府警察局长查特里·苏克西里少将指挥了此次行动。警员在进入目标场所前，已从芭堤雅府法院获得搜查令。

警方和土地官员对芭堤雅的12家公司进行调查，并追踪了8亿泰铢资产背后的资金来源。

与此同时，邦拉蒙和农普鲁警察局的调查人员与省刑事调查人员和特警队员一起展开行动。土地厅和省商业机构的官员也参与其中。

此次行动的目标是芭堤雅周边持有土地和住宅物业的疑似外资控股公司。调查人员正在查明泰国股东是真正的投资者，还是代表外国投资人的代理人。

至关重要的是，警方正在追踪用于购买这些房产的资金来源。他们还希望查明谁控制着这些公司及其资产。如果查明存在非法安排，调查可能导致刑事指控和强制出售房产。

这12处地点包括豪宅、住宅投资和土地。经查明的房产总价值估计超过8亿泰铢。警方还查明了16块土地，总面积约50莱（约合8万平方米）。

此外，调查还涉及11处住宅物业和与这些物业相关的12家公司。执法人员正在审查公司记录、股东信息以及房产购置资金来源。

土地官员警告将强制出售土地，此前突击搜查发现农普鲁宅邸内藏有中国公民和电脑。

然而，这些房产并非全部被认定为非法所有，价值8亿泰铢的资产组合也尚未全部没收。警方和土地官员必须查明这些交易是否违反了现行的外国所有权限制。

值得注意的是，周三随行的土地部门官员警告说，非法持有的土地可能在 180 天内被强制处置。

其中一次最引人注目的突击搜查发生在农普鲁的一处豪华宅邸。该宅邸位于芭堤雅地区的鲁安苏克12巷3号。这栋宅邸占地约1.2莱，相当于1920平方米。

警方进入屋内后，发现三名中国公民。经护照核查，三人均于10月17日星期六抵达泰国。因此，警方进行搜查时，他们入境泰国仅四天。

此外，该房产的所有权安排并非警方唯一关注点。在宅邸内，调查人员发现了约100台电脑及相关电子设备。这些设备包括部分组装好的台式电脑、处理器、键盘和其他组件。

部分物品上还带有中文标记和序列号。警方检查了这些设备，并扣押了部分电脑组件以作进一步调查。

警方调查了100台电脑、银行交易记录以及芭堤雅一处豪宅的中国所有权情况。

当时，调查人员尚未确定这些电脑的用途，也未确认这些设备是否与犯罪活动有关。

尽管如此，这一发现促使警方在土地所有权调查之外，展开了另一项独立调查。警方尚未公布针对涉案电脑设备的具体指控。这些系统的预期用途仍然未知。

另一方面，警方检查了其中一名中国男子的财务记录。他们发现一本泰国银行存折，显示其每月平均交易额约为20万泰铢。

账户持有人在接受询问时声称这笔钱是租金收入。目前，调查人员尚未公开证实这些资金的来源。他们正在对这一解释以及与该豪宅相关的财务安排进行调查。

土地登记查询显示，该房产的注册所有者为 Pattaya Vision Co., Ltd。泰语报告显示，该公司的泰文注册名称为 บริษัท พัทยาวิสชั่น จำกัด。据报道，调查人员证实该公司的股东均为中国公民。

这一发现引发了人们对该公司在泰国拥有土地的合法权利的质疑。通常情况下，外资控股公司不能在泰国拥有土地，除非它们符合特定的法律规定。

芭堤雅愿景公司面临土地所有权调查，警方正在调查可能的空壳公司安排。

因此，警方正在审查芭堤雅愿景公司的注册信息和股东记录。他们还在调查该公司是如何获得这栋豪宅及其1.2莱（约2.2公顷）土地的。核心问题是该公司是否拥有合法持有该土地的权利。

此外，调查人员还必须确定此前是否有泰国代理人参与过所有权结构。警方正在调查该公司在购买该房产后所有权安排是否发生变化。

现有报告并未确定该房产最初是否是通过非法代理人安排购买的，也未证实土地购置后其股东是否发生过变更。

然而，由于该地块被报道为中国所有，因此土地部门对其展开了直接审查。如果调查人员证实其所有权非法，该公司可能面临被勒令处置该土地的命令。

在其余11处地点，警方对涉及泰国公民和外国公民的公司所有权安排进行了调查。调查内容包括涉嫌的代持股份、公司融资以及对已登记房产的控制。警方尤其关注泰国参与者是否提供姓名以掩盖外国所有权。此类安排若被用于规避土地购买限制，则可能违反泰国法律。

财务记录和股东控制权正受到审查，85名泰国和外国公民的身份已被确认。

作为调查的一部分，调查人员正在寻找财务证据，以确定谁提供了收购资金。他们还在调查登记股东是否对公司行使了真正的控制权。

执法人员正在调查外国投资者是否在未持有产权登记的情况下控制房产。调查内容包括可能违反《外国商业法》和相关土地法规的行为。

此次行动共确认了85名涉案人员，他们来自九个不同的国家，包括泰国公民和外国公民。根据详细的国籍统计，其中54人为泰国公民，31人为外国公民。中国公民人数最多，共有14人。

除三名以色列人外，还有七名印度公民也牵涉其中。调查人员还确认了两名俄罗斯人和两名菲律宾人。其余外籍人士包括一名比利时人、一名法国人和一名英国人。

因此，调查范围不仅限于中国投资者和中国控股的房地产公司，还包括来自西欧、南亚、中东和东南亚的公民。然而，调查期间的身份识别并不能证明每个人都犯了罪。警方必须确定每个人在房地产交易中的具体参与程度。

随着警方要求提供公司记录并调查融资情况，关于嫌疑人的说法出现了矛盾之处。

已公布的报道在被指控人数方面存在出入。一份英文报道称，警方指控85名泰国公民协助非法外国所有权。

相比之下，详细的国籍分类显示共有85人，其中包括54名泰国公民。现有报告并未对这些数据做出最终解释。同样，一份报告提到了八个国籍，但已公布的分类显示有九个国籍，包括泰国。

警方尚未公布所有嫌疑人的完整名单，也未确认对所有已确认人员的指控。不过，调查范围涵盖涉嫌参与非法公司和土地所有权安排的人员。

涉案人员已被传唤至邦拉蒙警察局。调查人员要求提供公司文件、股东记录以及对房产购买情况的解释。他们还在审查银行交易记录和其他公司融资证据。

土地部门审查土地所有权，并警告非法持有土地者可能在180天内被强制出售。

此次调查的目的是确定泰国股东的投资资金是自有资金还是受外国买家委托。警方正在调查外国投资者是否在未持有登记所有权的情况下行使了控制权。

与此同时，有关部门正在审查土地所有权及相关公司结构的法律地位。调查结果可能导致刑事诉讼、行政处置令或两者兼有。

在强制处置之前，土地部门必须先确定是否存在非法所有权。一位参与周三行动的土地官员特别提到，强制出售将在180天内完成。此前，政府已发布指示，要求加快打击非法外国土地持有行为。

根据泰国《土地法》第94条和第96条的规定，非法占有的土地可被强制处置。土地厅厅长可以要求非法所有者出售其土地。

法定处置期限为180天至一年。因此，如果相关部门发布命令明确规定六个月的期限，则处置期限也可能为六个月。如果业主未能遵守规定，总干事可以安排出售。

阿努廷下令对代理人转账进行更严格的审查，并查明那些为可疑土地交易提供资金的人。

该过程可能涉及拍卖或其他强制处置程序。出售所得款项通常会在扣除适用费用后返还给所有者。因此，强制处置并不意味着政府会自动无偿没收全部财产价值。即使如此，被认定为非法取得土地的所有者仍可能失去保留土地的权利。

土地局也在研究防止代理公司之间进行股权转移的措施。官员们希望查明更换的股东是真正的投资者，还是继续参与非法安排的参与者。

这个问题在总理阿努廷·查恩维拉库尔周一宣布的全国性打击行动中被重点提及。

10月19日，阿努廷在政府大楼启动了政府的“土地行动”倡议。他命令各省省长和土地官员加快对涉嫌非法外国人拥有土地的案件的调查。

首相还要求对通过可疑股东安排持有土地的公司进行更严格的审查。具体而言，官员们被指示查明实际提供购地资金的个人，并确定谁控制着该房产以及谁从中受益。

全国范围内的土地整治行动目标是价值140亿泰铢的土地，各省调查小组面临12月的最后期限。

阿努廷还下令调查旨在将土地在代理人机构之间转移的转让行为。此前，已在全国范围内发现大量需要进一步审查的房产持有情况。

政府数据显示，有1397家公司实体涉嫌存在不正当所有权安排。这些调查涉及2360块土地，总价值约140.1亿泰铢。此外，土地局还确定了13088名需要接受调查的个人和实体。

这些更广泛的土地所有权涵盖泰国境内约5467莱（约2400公顷）的土地。阿努廷指示官员在2026年12月前完成优先调查。

因此，各省政府必须在规定期限内推进对可疑房产交易的调查。该计划还要求对涉及泰国公民代表外国投资者进行的土地购买交易进行更严格的审查。

官员必须确定登记业主是否有足够的财力购置相关房产。调查人员还在调查购房资金是否来自随后控制土地的外国人。

政府已下令加强对涉及代理人变更的土地转让的审查。这些​​指令旨在防止土地通过不断变更登记所有权而继续处于外国非法控制之下。

芭堤雅突击搜查行动是在此前对酒店和公寓进行调查之后展开的，多名欧洲公民面临质询。

阿努廷表示，合法的外国投资应继续在现行泰国法律框架下进行。他的指示特别针对非法土地所有权和商业安排。

周三在芭堤雅展开的行动距离总理宣布相关命令仅两天。甚至在此命令发布之前，警方就已经开始调查该地区涉嫌外国代理人持有的房产。

事实上，此次突击搜查是继8月份在芭堤雅开展的早期行动之后进行的。之前的调查涉及一家酒店和一栋高层公寓楼。警方调查了涉嫌与外国投资和房产所有权相关的违规行为。

10月份的行动已将审查范围扩大到豪华住宅和独立地块。此外，调查还涵盖了更多不同国籍的外国人。

一名英国公民、一名法国公民和一名比利时公民的涉案，使得欧洲投资者也纳入了调查范围。他们的身份尚未公开。调查人员也未确定哪些房产或公司与每位投资者的国籍相关。与个别外国投资者相关的资产价值也未公布。

警方正在调查8亿泰铢房产案，并就电脑和租金支付问题寻求答案。

同样，官方尚未公布这12家公司或16块土地的单独估值。8亿泰铢的数字仍然是对正在调查的资产总额的估计。

目前尚无确凿证据表明有多少房产与中国或西方投资者相关。也没有证据表明所有85人都将面临起诉。

警方仍将农普鲁宅邸的发现作为另一项调查重点。调查人员必须查明在宅邸内发现的约100台电脑的用途。他们还在调查三名中国公民出现在该处的原因。

这些男子在周三行动前仅四天才抵达泰国。值得注意的是，其中一名男子的银行记录显示，他每月有约20万泰铢的交易记录。他告诉调查人员，这笔钱是房租。

迄今为止，警方尚未公布证实该解释或确定其他来源的调查结果。这些设备的预期用途也尚未得到证实。仅凭这些电脑的存在，尚无法确定其存在犯罪目的。由于芭堤雅视觉有限公司（Pattaya Vision Co., Ltd.）据称有中方股东，该公司仍在接受调查。

土地官员考虑强制出售土地，警方正在调查12家公司和85名个人。

该公司持有该豪宅和土地的合法性必须通过公司记录和产权记录来证明。其余公司也面临类似的产权和融资审查。

调查人员正在评估泰国相关人员是否明知故犯地促成了外国的非法控制。土地厅将决定证据是否支持强制处置令。

官方尚未公布周三公布的房产出售计划中已有多少处房产进入正式出售程序，也未公布具体处置时间表。

尽管存在180天的结案期限，但这项调查仍被纳入政府的加速执法计划。这项覆盖全国的行动涉及价值超过140亿泰铢的涉嫌财产。

仅在芭堤雅，周三的突击检查就使价值约8亿泰铢的土地和建筑物受到直接审查。此次行动还确定了12家公司和85名个人需要进一步调查。

警方目前正在调查公司记录、财务证据以及资产控制者的身份。与此同时，土地官员正在审查登记所有权是否符合泰国法律。

如果查明存在非法外国所有权，相关部门可以责令在规定期限内出售土地。如果业主拒绝或不服从，官员可以安排强制出售。

下一阶段将决定这12家公司中哪些将面临起诉、处置令或进一步调查。目前，16块土地和11处住宅仍然是芭堤雅调查的核心。调查仍在春武里府警察局的领导下进行，土地厅正在研究强制出售的可能性。

扩大对外国房产所有权的调查，将目光投向16个省份的公司持有的公寓。
