Anti-Graft Agency Asked To Quizz Senior Officials Over Thaksin Case

[webfact]

 

THE NATIONAL ANTI-CORRUPTION Commission has been petitioned to conduct an inquiry into questionable performance of certain high-level government officials which could allegedly tantamount to a practice of double standards in favour of de facto Pheu Thai boss-cum-convict at large Thaksin Shinawatra.

 

Former Democrat MP Watchara Petthong has submitted his petition to NACC secretary-general Niwatchai Kasemmongkol over the weekend calling for the anti-graft agency to directly interrogate Justice Minister Thawee Sodsong, Corrections Department director-general Sahakarn Petnarin and Police Hospital’s chief executive official Thaweesilp Wechawitharn on grounds of having allegedly managed to grant excessive privileges to the “sickly” Thaksin which are allegedly unprovided for other convicts.

 

However, the ex-MP suggested that other government officials of the Corrections Department and Police Hospital be treated as personal witnesses if they provide investigating subcommittees of the anti-graft agency with truthful, useful information pertaining to the contentious handling of Thaksin case.

 

Watchara’s latest move against the de facto Pheu Thai boss-cum-convict apparently followed yesterday’s visit to Police Hospital by House Committee on Police Affairs chair/Democrat MP Chaichana Dejdecho.

Another investigation that will go nowhere.

What is the worst that could happen to anybody who decided that Thaksin should be treated like he is now? I guess maybe a fine, maybe.

As long as nobody can be sent to jail for keeping the VIP guy out of jail nothing will happen.

And I am sure there will always be at least one medical doctor whose opinion it is that it is medically necessary to give the guy the VIP treatment.

 

Best case we can hope for is that the voters remember what is going on. But I won't hold my breath.

I don't need to ask a clairvoyant to know the outcome🙏

What they need to do is begin inquiries into uncommon wealth for all who associate with Thaksin in this fiasco. Yet noone has even suggested it.

Not sure why he had 5 policemen outside his room blocking anyone from entering. Does it take that many?

His goons. Remember taksh!1t held a high office in the police

 

What kind of quizz can they possibly come up with?

Multiple choice?

 

My apologies for being vulgar. I hope this dynasty does like the dinosaurs and goes extinct

Thai voters have the memory span of a geriatric goldfish with dementia, easily distracted by a 100 baht note.

There has been no double standard involved. 

 

Problem solved.

Yes, I understand what you say but he was only a lieutenant colonel, not that high. I think as a former PM he held a lot more power.

Still, if I were in hospital, I wouldn't want anyone I didn't know visiting...
