PETERTHEEATER Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Who put up the 500k bail bond? Thaksin's on-shore accounts would have been frozen when he 'fled' Of course! Daughter would have paid it. Even though she is leader of a major political party responsible to steer policy she has been given indefinite leave of absence from her well-paid job to push Daddy around in his stroller. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been getting away with a lot But maybe he can't Buy Everting, Let's hope for the best and see him in jail or back in his holiday Hospital If he gets Convicted. IMHO, Thaksin has a friend in the highest place and all the yappers should remember that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaksin, who was released on conditional parole yesterday, reported to the Office of the Attorney-General this morning (OAG), to be informed of Attorney-General Amnat Chetcharoenrak’s decision, after he had been notified of the lèse majesté charges against him by public prosecutors in January. Thaksin arrived at the OAG in a wheel chair in the company of his youngest daughter, Paetongtarn, who is also Pheu Thai party leader, and police from the Technology Crime Suppression Division, which has taken over from the Corrections Department in the handling of the case.
