Pareena land affair passes jurisdictional hurdle

By The Nation

 

Pareena Kraikup

 

The Council of State has determined that either the Royal Forest Department or the Agricultural Land Reform Office (ALRO) can handle a case in which Phalang Pracharath Party MP Pareena Kraikup is accused of allowing a farm operation to encroach on state-owned land.

 

But the ALRO has no authority to execute an arrest warrant should it come to that, the council said, according to Deputy Prime Minister Wissanu Krea-ngam.

 

Wissanu was reporting on Thursday (February 13) about the council’s response to the Forest Department’s request for clarifications in the case so that protocol is in place for similar cases in the future.

 

The council also pointed out that potential ownership of the property must be taken into account, since, if it’s decreed the perimeter must be limited, the land could eventually belong to the ALRO rather than the Forest Department.

 

A Cabinet resolution demands that the land be “reformed” – returned to its intended use – and the ALRO has a plan and the budget to do so, it noted.

 

Wissanu said Pareena had already formally said she would return the forestland to the ALRO, but she did not accompany ALRO inspectors in their bid to define the perimeter, which he said indicated she had not yet returned the land.

 

“She must cooperate or she will be in violation of Article 47 of the Agricultural Land Reform Act and Article 9 of the Land Code,” he said.

Oh, yes. She must cooperate or she'll be in big trouble! I bet she's really worried. 

When I was a teenager we would describe a female  how she looked as a snake or wolf. 

 

This is a photo of a snake.????

I think that tells us all we need to know. This story will be quietly brushed under the carpet, just like the drug smuggling minister.

Nevermind, everybody can see by the picture how sympathetic this woman really are.

exactly what we expected, nothing will happen to her because ahe is part of the govt, once again graft & corruption win out  with this govt as it usually does with any thai govt, they are all corrupt and in it for what they can get. 

Ah but, give the current democratically elected, under a free and fair system and a constitution freely endorsed by the electorate, time.

They have had major issues to resolve: beach chairs; lottery pricing and persecting the opposition, to name but 3.

Form a committee then form a sub committee then a forestry committee then a chicken farm committee then ask the senior chicken what came first the farm or the forest simple as that job done next case????

Resting bitch face.

Forest Department to file more charge against Ms. Pareena Kraikupt

 

 

The Forest Department is to file an additional charge of encroachment into national forest reserves against Palang Pracharat MP Pareena Kraikupt.

 

Forest Department chief Atthapol Charoenchansa told Thai PBS today that forest officials and police, from the Division for the Suppression of Offences related to Environment and Natural Resources, had used satellite aided equipment to map the Khao Son farm, belonging to Ms. Pareena, in Tambon Rangbua, Chom Boeng district of Ratchaburi province and found that 80 hectares of the land is located on national forest reserves, not 109 hectares as claimed by the Office of Land Reform for Agriculture.

 

He said it didn’t make any difference if 80 or 109 hectares is encroached upon because it will still be treated as a major case and handled with transparency.
