snoop1130 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 No decision made on Thanathorn’s “junta slamming” case By The Nation File photo : Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit //Future Forward party's Facebook As of Tuesday, the prosecutor had not decided whether or not to prosecute Future Forward Party leader Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit in a case related to criticism of the junta last year. Thanathorn had been accused of posting false information online after slamming the ruling junta via a Facebook Live feed last year. The prosecutor will now make a decision on June 28. The authority was previously meant to make the decision on Tuesday, but deferred the action due to uncompleted legal procedures, Thanathorn’s lawyer Kritsadang Nutcharas said. The prosecutor said the investigation report had yet to be filed because interviews with related individuals have yet to be completed, the lawyer said.

lipflipper Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Just rid Thai politics of this Thaksin clone and be done with this soap opera. You align yourself with the Thaksin funded and run Pheu Thai party you an expect to be scrutinized down to the poop in your undies. This light weight isn't going anywhere.

Yes we still get to Lampoon them as they will still be p[utting the articles her on TV. many Canadian Newspapers have also announced that they are going digital and dropping the print. They are having a hard time getting advertising dollars to cover the costs. They no longer need the buildings as everything can be done from home or Starbucks for most of the reporting.

A newly formed party that came third in the Thai General Election is remarkable and will become even more popular with the current young, or next, generations. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thailand needs new fresh politicians who aren't controlled by the old feudal patronage system. However, exactly what the relationship of the FFP leader and owning PTP family is has yet to be seen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not as if any of this is about law and order or right and wrong. Exactly my thoughts, they probably got a nod not to bother with this case any more, as they will find him guilty on a much graver charge soon....

Sent from my CMR-AL19 using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Sure, just get rid of all politicians you do not like. What a disgraceful remark. Sick and tired of people showing no respect for choices made by the Thai electorate. To fix Thailands problems, acceptance and respect for democracy is key. Thaksin is not the problem, people like you are. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They both want to change the constitution, appointed Senate and make the electoral system fairer for the future. In addition Thanatorn (perhaps too outspoken) wants the Army out of politics and stop conscription. They are both anti elite parties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomacht8 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 A smear comedy of the worst kind. Many Thais are angry about these tricks from the bottom drawer. And what is with this case?

This was critical to the junta's ability to steal this election. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
