Ex-PAD leaders won’t seek donations to pay damages

By Thai PBS

 

 

The 13 former core members of the People’s Alliance for Democracy (PAD) will not call for donations from the public to pay the Airports of Thailand (AoT) 522 million baht in compensation for a PAD protest that shut down Don Mueang and Suvarnabhumi airports in 2008, Suriyasai Katasila posted on Facebook on Tuesday (Sept 26).

 

In 2011, the Civil Court ordered the 13 ex-PAD leaders to pay 522 million baht in compensation to the AoT with an annual interest rate of 7.5% from Dec 3, 2008 until payment is made in full. The 13 brought the case to the Appeals Court.

 

The Appeals Court, in 2015, upheld a lower court’s ruling. They were allowed to appeal within 30 days, but failed to do so within the time frame.

They are so considerate.

Perhaps their hiso backers will pay it for them. 

Or maybe ask Suthep if they could take a bit out of his sacks of money collected during the last protest.

I doubt they have any intention of paying so why ask for donations.

Translate: they know they won't have to pay anyway!
