The National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) has resolved to find Kanit Chinwong guilty of unexplained wealth, unable to account for 14 million baht in funds. The case file was sent to the Attorney General to petition the court to order the assets to be forfeited to the state. His superiors were notified to dismiss him within 60 days.
On 10 November 2025, Mr. Surapong Intharathaworn, Deputy Secretary-General of the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC), acting as spokesperson for the NACC Office, announced that in the case of Mr. Kanit Chinwong, the NACC resolved to find him guilty of unexplained wealth while serving as director of the Ratchaburi Right Bank Irrigation and Maintenance Project, Office of Irrigation 13, totaling 14,050,000 baht.
The investigation revealed that between 2019 and 2024, while serving as director of the Ratchaburi Right Bank Irrigation and Maintenance Project, Office of Irrigation 13, Kanit's income from government service according to individual income tax declarations ranged from approximately 329,728 to 806,614 baht per year between 2017 and 2022. He had no other occupations, but in 2023, Kanit possessed Government Savings Bank savings bonds amounting to 14,050,000 baht for which he could not prove or explain the source of funds used to purchase them.
The NACC resolved that Kanit Chinwong was illegally enriched. He possessed assets that were unusually high or had increased abnormally, or had acquired assets without lawful cause connected to his official duties or use of authority in office, totaling 14,050,000 baht.
The commission directed that the investigation report, case files, evidence, and opinions be forwarded to the Attorney General to petition the court with jurisdiction over the case, requesting the court to order the confiscation of illegally acquired assets as state property. They also requested that the ruling and a summary of the facts be reported to his superiors, considering the act as corruption in the course of duty under Section 122, paragraphs one and three of the Organic Act on Anti-Corruption B.E. 2561 (2018).
If the court cannot fully seize the assets identified as illegally acquired or only partially, the court is requested to enforce seizure against other assets of the accused within 10 years, according to Section 125 of the Organic Act on Anti-Corruption B.E. 2561 (2018).
