Kankamol Albon

The F 1 driver’s mother, Kankamol Albon was convicted of fraud involving the sale of prestige cars from her Smallbridge Hall home, near Bures in 2012.

Almost 200 items were seized from her amid the investigation.

Kankamol was initially investigated after she alleged she had been blackmailed into selling hundreds of prestige cars from her family-run business, N A Carriage Company, for less than the market value.

However, inquiries revealed this was a smokescreen for criminal acts including a fraudulent investment operation, leading to the loss of £7.5m.

In October 2012, Kankamol was sentenced to six years in prison after pleading guilty to fraud by false misrepresentation, fraudulent trading and theft, plus VAT fraud.

Kankamol Albon, 51, currently lives with Alex together with his younger brother and sisters.
