Thai Activists Demand Detailed Disclosure of Thaksin’s Health Issues

[snoop1130]

 

Activists from the Student and People Network for Thailand Reform (SNT) filed a complaint seeking a detailed disclosure of former PM Thaksin Shinawatra’s health conditions, to prove if he deserves to stay in a hospital instead of a prison.

 

The activists on Monday, September 18th, submitted a letter to the Royal Thai Police Office demanding the Police General Hospital release the latest update on Thaksin’s health condition, after he was whisked there from a prison due to worsening health issues after serving less than twelve hours.

 

The convicted ex-premier so far spent most of his remaining one-year jail term in a posh hospital suite due to alleged medical problems and the prison’s lack of medical equipment. His initial eight-year sentence was reduced to one year by His Royal Majesty the King. Thaksin could be eligible for parole in the near future as well.

There are privacy issues around a patient's health records. Unless the man says ok stick them in the local newspaper the doctors are obliged to keep his health secret.

Perhaps 'popularists' should ask for a review?

Some should put them in hospital, sounds like they need it.

While I don't condone what's happening, demanding doctors release information on his health is never going to happen
