### Thaksin returns to court smiling as he fights further asset seizures over a final ฿17.629 billion tax bill. His lawyers point to ฿46.37 billion already confiscated and a ฿15.88 billion overlap, while Revenue pursues assets at home and overseas today.

Former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra swept into Bangkok’s Central Tax Court smiling on Wednesday as a ฿17.629 billion tax battle entered a decisive new phase.

However, Thaksin is fighting further seizures, arguing the state already confiscated ฿46.37 billion linked to his Shin Corp wealth.

Former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra returned to court Wednesday over the state’s pursuit of a ฿17.629 billion tax debt.

Now, Thaksin wants the Central Tax Court to stop further seizures of his assets.
