BANGKOK, July 22 — The Thai government will file a lawsuit against Walter Bau, a German company, for requesting a German court order to impound a royal aircraft in relation to the legal dispute between the firm and the Thai government, according to Thailand’s head prosecutor, Attorney General Julasing Wasantasing.

Mr Julasing said Walter Bau, which is claiming damages from the Thai government, pressed ahead until the court ordered the seizure of the aircraft used by Thailand’s Crown Prince Maha Vajiralongkorn despite the aircraft having no connection with the dispute between the Thai government and the firm. The case is in the appeals process.
