snoop1130 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Sorrayuth makes bail pending appeal By The Nation File photo: Sorrayuth Suthassanachinda The Supreme Court approved bail requests for former famous TV news host Sorrayuth Suthassanachinda and his employee on Tuesday. Both were sentenced to lengthy jail terms late last month over bribery and embezzlement charges related to the sale of commercial airtime during his popular news programme, which was broadcast by the MCOT more than a decade ago. The Supreme Court decided to approve the bail requests of Sorrayuth and his employee, Montha Thiradej, after accepting their appeal request. They were released on Bt5million bail each. As part of their bail conditions, they are required to report to the court every three months. They are also barred from making overseas trips.

I know on TV it is fashionable to knock the Thai justice system, but just look at the onerous conditions attached to their release. They have to do 90 day reports! And cannot leave the country, I assume unless they have a re-entry permit already. Edited September 12, 2017 by BigBadGeordie Addendum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
