Panama Papers: Huge tax leak exposes Putin aides, world leaders, stars
The individuals are among scores of politicians and business figures worldwide who feature in the massive document leak from Panamanian law firm Mossack Fonseca, which specialises in establishing offshore companies.
The investigation into possible money laundering is at an early stage and Thai authorities have so far found no evidence of wrongdoing, AMLO acting Secretary-General Seehanat Prayoonrat told reporters on Friday.
Leak boosts Panama’s image as money-laundering hub
Thailand has sought cooperation from Panama's anti-money laundering agency, he said, and would not release the names of the individuals on the list until authorities had verified the leaked information.
Seehanat said he did not know if any members of the Thai military government were on the list.
"We are doing preliminary checks," he said.
