snoop1130 Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 The Constitutional Court is unlikely to issue a ruling on the fate of the opposition Move Forward party this month and have given the party more time to present additional defence evidence against an application for the dissolution of the party, Constitutional Court president Nakharin Mektrairat said today. The court accepted for consideration the Election Commission’s petition and application, seeking to have the party dissolved and the executive committee members banished from politics for ten years, on charges of attempting to overthrow the Constitutional Monarchy by calling for amendment of lèse majesté law (Criminal Code §112). The court gave the party until April 17 to produce evidence to the court in its defence.

They do not understand what a constitutional monarchy is. Many people forget that despite being "above politics" there were changes made to the constitution AFTER the referendum vote last time - totally illegal, but done by a god so it was overlooked. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ikke1959 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 It is in fact ridiculous that this case is being hanled by the court.. Nothing happened, no intentions whatsoever.. A military coup is much more a threat than changing a law that is very outdated and being abused for people who don't agree with the establishment..Besides that the MFP is the winning party of the last elections so many people agree with the change, but because the army and friends don't allow any interference in their power and wealth they find fake reasons to get rid of their opponents.. How long will the people accept this? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
