webfact Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 The Criminal Court has dismissed a defamation lawsuit filed by Sararat Rangsivuthaphan, known as Am, the alleged mastermind behind several murder cases involving cyanide, against Rapee Chumnanruen, who coordinated on behalf of the victims. The court’s decision came after evidence was presented proving Rapee’s statements made during a television interview about Am’s deception of authorities were true. Am’s lawyer, Thanicha Eaksuwan, or Lawyer Pach, stated prior to the court hearing that if the case was dismissed, they would appeal. However, if the court accepted the case and issued an order, and Rapee failed to appear for the hearing, she would serve a court order to his residence. She was confident in her evidence against Rapee, who admitted that the person in the clip was indeed him. Lawyer Pach revealed that it was now in the stage of determining whether the actions constituted an offence or not. This would be another stage where the court would first have to accept the charges for further consideration. by Neill Fronde TOP Photo courtesy of Bangkok Post Full story: https://thethaiger.com/hot-news/crime/cyanide-murder-mastermind-loses-defamation-case-lawyer-announces-appeal-with-new-evidence -- The Thaiger 2023-09-06 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

Popular Post JCauto Posted September 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 6, 2023 Look past this particular case and you will observe the face of another very real problem in this country - anyone can easily sue anyone else for defamation and the courts will just let it proceed. This has been used as a means of suppression of opinion over and over and over again, almost inevitably by the wealthy and powerful against anyone criticizing they or their business, whether that criticism is absolutely warranted or not, and with consequences heavily weighed against the criticizer. This is another manifestation of the sorts of legal basis for the powerful to maintain their power indefinitely and extends so far that one cannot safely post a valid review of a hotel or restaurant without risking actual jail and damages. This is why a certain political party who won elections are not sitting in power while those who clearly lost are and their stated reason for doing so. 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred West filed legal action against Billy Connolly and won, forcing his company to remove parts from a live standup DVD. As Billy later said 'As if me joking about how good a gardener he was, out there shoveling all day and night is going to sway the jury. I think the back yard full of dead bodies has got you fukced there Fred'. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
