Thailand’s Constitutional Court revoked the parliamentary status of Bhumjaithai party-list MP Samlee Raksuthee today (Wednesday), retroactive to March 24th 2019, after finding him unqualified to contest the election in the first place.

 

The court ruled that Samlee was convicted by the Maha Sarakham provincial court on a fraud charge. The case was concluded before he stood for election.

The court said that Samlee applied to run in the election, despite being fully aware that he was not qualified to do so.

Prayuth was not 'qualified' to do so, but that didn't stop him.

Might be fair to ask who selects this Constitutional Court life membership? 

....or any other special clubs.

 

 

To be expected, we're distracted by chasing up the wrong tree.

So much for the fact checking process in governmental elections

Would it matter, when convicted drug dealers are allowed to be in the government?????
