Thanathorn submits details on media shares case to court

By The Nation

 

 

Representatives of embattled Future Forward Party leader, Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit, carried three boxes full of documents to the Constitutional Court on Monday to explain his media shareholding case. 

 

The anti-junta politician only had 45 days to prepare his explanation, with Monday being the deadline, as the court had rejected his request for an extension last month.

 

A court official pored over the documents for more than an hour on Monday, before they are forwarded to the judges, who will see if further clarifications, documents or witnesses are required. If no further clarifications are required, then the judges will vote on whether Thanathorn had breached the Constitution. 

 

The politician is accused of violating the Constitution by holding shares in the media firm, V-luck, while running for an MP post. 

 

However, Thanathorn has said all along that he transferred the shares to his mother weeks before the MP election was open for applications. Yet, official documents show that Thanathorn’s mother only became a legitimate shareholder of V-Luck Company after her son had already become an MP candidate. 

 

The politician can be disqualified as MP if the court finds him guilty. He is currently suspended from the House of Representatives by court order.

Thanathorn is innocent of the trumped up change but we all now how this will end.

They are determined to get Thanathorn, one way or another. It may not necessarily be via this route - but for sure some fraudulent method will be found.

He is far too huge a threat to the tyrannous 1% to be allowed to wander around Thailand free, articulate, politically innovative - and popular.

 

He must be STOPPED at all costs, and he will be, temporarily; but I have the sense that somehow, somewhen - Thanathorn's day of victory will come. I believe he is a man of destiny.

Every dog has its day as the bogus elected junta a r s e wipes will discover one day - the sooner the better, however even if it takes a little time, Thailand will be better off for it.

Sure he will get a free and fair court hearing after the free and fair election if not I predict a Kaiser Chiefs song on 78rpm????

There it is then or are they falsified? 

 

Besides that, he started saying he went to the office to do the transfer at the last possible moment which he cannot prove and now he says he did the transfer weeks before ...

 

Not a strong cookie and not a strong case. Bye.
