Court bars Chuwit from campaigning against Bhumjaithai over its cannabis policy

[snoop1130]

 

Thailand’s Civil Court issued an injunction today (Wednesday) barring Chuwit Kamolvisit from campaigning against the Bhumjaithai party over its cannabis policy, pending the outcome of a defamation lawsuit, filed against the self-styled whistle blower by the party.

 

The court ruling follows the filing of a motion for temporary protection with the court by the Bhumjaithai party today, seeking an emergency injunction after the court rejected the party’s complaint on the grounds that barring Chuwit from criticising the party may infringe upon the defendant’s right to free expressions.

 

In considering the party’s complaint today, the court ruled that it appears that Chuwit has stopped criticising the Bhumjaithai party over the Orange Line train project and, hence, there is no need for the court to issue an injunction to stop him from criticising the party on that issue.

His 6 Million Baht envelope story has changed, one wonders when they will come for him, or does he truly know where the skeletons are buried and in whose closets they hang....inquiring minds want to know.

 

The man has created a minefield in government circles.

I've never heard anyone claim that. People must talk in whispers or behind closed doors over some issues. And they do. They do. The authorities might be able to stop people talking, but they haven't found a way yet to stop them thinking.

Freedom of speech only for those who don't criticize or comment against the Government.

defamation, section 112, and all kind of other laws for those who dare to open their mouth. Democracy in Thailand

Chuwit is a publicity seeking idiot, flaming out yet again in full view of the public.

 

He is still trying to explain the 6 million baht "gift".

Yet another fine example of kleptocracy!

Interesting Chuwit can not hold them responsible or rail against them.

 

BUT

 

There is nothing stopping him from providing that information to the other parties to use against BJT.
