BANGKOK: A Thai maid was to inherit her late French boss’ assets worth as much as 100 million baht (US$2.7 million), including a villa-style hotel in Koh Samui.

But the plan was put on hold when the authorities found potential legal breaches after scrutinising the shareholding structure of her boss’ company GVNE, which owns the luxurious property, reported Bangkok Post.
