Guest guest Posted July 11, 2008 Report Posted July 11, 2008 Yesterday Edwin Wiek, the director of the Center, was confined to 8 months jail on probation and Baht 20.000 (around 400 Euro) for his “crime†to give Orangutans provisional shelter waiting to be sent back to Indonesia. He gave shelter because he was already long involved to finalize the scandal of 54 Orangutans being smuggled from Indonesia and being abused in Safari World in Bangkok.
