A civil and criminal case is ongoing in the court of Hua Hin. Plaintiff is a foreigner with a thai wife and defendant is among others George Mastronikolis. The plaintiff alleges that George Mastronikolis has taken money in the amount of approximately 5.3m THB (of a total sales price around 5.6m THB) and has failed to deliver a finished house and has failed to transfer the land to the plaintiff.
Infact, looking at photos that has been sent to us, it seems the house is 50% finished and the title deeds shows that the land has been sold three (3!) times after the contract was signed between George Mastronikolis and the plaintiff. Not once has the plaintiff been told about these sales and today noone seems to know who the owner of the land is.
The other defendants in the case are a thai company and another Hua Hin local who has been dragged into the case as George Mastronikolis has used this company to sign sales contracts through and received money into the bank accounts despite not being a shareholder, director or employee of the company. However George Mastronikoli’s girlfriend was a director at the time and has withdrawn the money from the bank accounts and later resigned as the director and left the company, leaving another person the sole director of the company to take the blame for the fraud.
Rumours are spreading that George used the money from the plaintiff to start his new restaurant called “Corner 112”, located on Petkasem soi 112, next to 7/11.
