Popular Post snoop1130 Posted August 9, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 9, 2023 BANGKOK (NNT) - Deputy Prime Minister Wissanu Krea-ngam recently revealed that a contingency plan has been devised in anticipation of the potential return of fugitive former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra. According to Wissanu, the government has taken measures to address the situation in the event of Thaksin’s return to face legal proceedings. He affirmed that various concerned authorities, including the courts and the Department of Corrections, are fully prepared to effectively handle the situation. However, the deputy prime minister also made a specific request to Thaksin regarding the timing of his potential return, urging the former premier not to choose weekends or public holidays for his arrival. He cited the operational dynamics of the judicial system, where courts that would be responsible for designating a detention facility for Thaksin would not be operational during such days. This could complicate the process of finding an appropriate detention venue for the former prime minister on such days. Thaksin recently declared his intention to return to Thailand on August 10, marking the end of his self-imposed exile. However, he subsequently postponed his return, citing the need for medical check-ups as advised by his doctors. He has deferred his homecoming on several occasions in the past. Thaksin has spent years living in self-imposed exile. During his absence, he has been handed a cumulative prison sentence of 12 years across four separate cases by the Supreme Court’s Criminal Division for Holders of Political Office. The legal challenges he faces have been a central factor in his prolonged stay outside the country.

Srikcir Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 The current government tried Thaksin in absentia under a new law devised by the former junta leadership but now seems to make every effort to keep him from returning. That's FEAR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The post coup court did what they did best by arbitrarily seizing $1.4 billion from Thaksin $2.29 billion in assets. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And rightfully so IMHO. He didn't steal money, but simply made it impossible to compete against his company. Why would he even consider returning, if a pardon wasn't part of a deal. That's just stupid. At his age, 12 yrs, or part of, could be a life sentence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
