Move Forward party calls for equal justice for all

[webfact]

The opposition Move Forward party has called for justice equality and an end to double standards, citing the privileges allegedly accorded to convicted former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra.

 

In a statement issued following Thaksin’s release on parole this morning, after having spent 180 days at the Police General Hospital, the Move Forward party said that, despite Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin’s repeated assurances of his government’s adherence to the rule of law, the privileges accorded to Thaksin, from his treatment outside Corrections Department’s facilities to his parole, lack transparency and have raised significant concerns over double standards.

 

The party also said, however, that it is undeniable that Thaksin was subjected to unfair treatment, as manifested by his overthrow in a military coup and by the judicial process, resulting in his convictions and sentencing.

They do know we are in Thailand?

2014 Bangkok Shutdown protest leaders were CONVICTED of Sedition and were granted bail within 36 hours where they currently remain free awaiting appeals.

 

Raise three fingers, honk a horn? Proceed directly to remand without bail.

 

 

That said, it's better than the old days when they would just murder and disappear those who opposed the State. Now they use the "justice" system, and its inherent threat, to suppress freedoms.

 

 

The recent move to gin up pro-royalist support and sentiment is a huge tell.

As long as Thailand is a dictatorship by the elite/military this will never happen.

People "disappeared" under Prayat's junta. One was found with a belly full of cement in the Mekong River.
