The Ratchaburi MP was also found to own a 691-rai plot in the Khao Son 1 area reserved for poor farmers under the land reform policy. Ms Pareena operates chicken farms in both the Khao Son 1 and 2 areas, located in tambon Rang Bua, Chom Bueng district. However, the authorities cannot press criminal charges against Ms Pareena for breaching the Act because the 10-year statute of limitations has lapsed. Capt Thamanat said Ms Pareena has the right to appeal the ministry's order to seize the land for re-allocation to eligible farmers. Meanwhile, Mr Atthaphon said Sunday's inspection of the Khao Son 1 and 2 areas was conducted with the court-approved search warrants.
