The Constitutional Court has postponed the initial hearing date for the dissolution case of the Move Forward party to July 17. They will await the results from examining the evidence presented by both the party and the Election Commission.

 

The court convened today to scrutinize the evidence put forth by both factions, deciding whether enough proof had been presented to proceed with the case hearings. Following discussions, it was concluded that the court should await a detailed examination of the materials, anticipated to be ready by July 9.

 

 

As per the unfolding case, the Election Commission has petitioned the Constitutional Court to disband the Move Forward party and bar its executive committee from political participation for the next ten years. According to them, the party attempted to overthrow the constitutional monarchy with its election promise to revise the lèse majesté law—this claim is based on a ruling made by the court on January 31.

 

The Move Forward party refutes this allegation. They argue that the ruling of January 31 is a detached case and as such, cannot influence the decision in their case.

Are they playing a game to get a ruling too close to a next election, so that the MP's don't have enough time to form a new party?
