Leader of Opposition’s Thai Liberal Party Sereepisuth Temeeyaves submitted a petition to the Election Commission (EC) yesterday (Monday) demanding the dissolution of seven micro parties for allegedly receiving bribes, which is a violation of the law on political parties.

 

The former national police chief claims that he has obtained evidence, including a leaked audio clip, showing the alleged bribery involving a major party buying support from minor parties in a way which could be deemed to be an act of political domination, which is in violation of Sections 28 and 29 of the Organic Act on Political Parties.

 

Sereepisuth claimed that there was a meeting at the Five Provinces Bordering Forest Preservation Foundation between Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwan, who is also the leader of the core government party Palang Pracharath (PPRP), and MPs of minor parties, regarding monthly payments if they would come under the control of thery larger party.

No. Say it ain't so.
