Mr Srisuwan said the EC should take up the issue as Mr Thanathorn risked breaking the political parties law. However, Mr Thanathorn said he could not remember the exact amount of the loan which he said could be in the region of 105 million baht or 110 million baht. She earlier said the loan was valued at 250 million baht. In case of a juristic person, the limit is set at no more than 5 million baht a year.
