The Office of the Attorney-General (OAG) has said that the army does not need to examine fraudulent GT200 bomb detectors as a lawsuit seeking compensation from the distributor has been finalised.
The army's examination of the GT200 bomb detectors came to public attention during the House debate on the 2023 budget bill last week.
An opposition MP questioned why the army awarded a 7.5-million-baht contract in March to the National Science and Technology Development Agency (NSTDA) to examine 757 GT200 bomb detectors despite it being common knowledge they were fraudulent.
