Fresh Push to Send Thaksin Back to Jail Intensifies
The Thai political landscape is witnessing yet another ripple as a fresh move by former Democrat MP Charnchai Issarasenarak seeks to have ex-Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra returned to jail. Thaksin, a prominent figure in Thailand's political scenario and father of current Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra, has come under scrutiny once more for allegedly circumventing his jail term. Having been granted a royal pardon last year upon his return from a self-imposed 17-year exile, Thaksin's initial eight-year sentence for power abuse was reduced to a single year. However, it is claimed that Thaksin has not served this year-long sentence in full, avoiding physical incarceration altogether. Instead, he spent six months in a private ward at the Police Hospital before his release on parole earlier in the year, sparking accusations of legal manipulation. Charnchai is appealing to Thailand's Supreme Court to rule retroactively, asserting that Thaksin had utilised his influence to evade jail, a move that is "categorically against the law." The crux of the matter lies in whether the Corrections Department legally transferred Thaksin to the hospital. Normally, such a transfer would necessitate prior approval from the Criminal Court, something that allegedly did not occur in this case, regardless of Thaksin's reported "critical illness." Should the Supreme Court rule in favour of Charnchai's petition, Thaksin could face returning to prison to complete his sentence. Further, Corrections Department Director-General Sahakarn Petchnarin could also face misconduct charges if found complicit. This development adds another layer to the saga surrounding the Shinawatra family and their ongoing influence in Thai politics. The outcome of this legal challenge will undoubtedly impact the country's political narrative in the coming months, reported Thai Newsroom. Picture courtesy: Thai Rath -- 2024-10-22 -

Wall street very convinced ,its gonna be Trump
C'mon sis, no need to act like an ingenue... On the other hand, no one believes you would cede your favorite position to anyone, that of being the one on the receiving ends (plural.) So @Inderpland was right: "Admit it, admit it!!" -

Is it a cobra?
Nope. A king cobra with that body width would be considerably longer and the color would also be different and the head would be much larger. -

Is it a cobra?
It’s definitely not a python. Their head shape is completely different and they have hear seeking pits on the side of their head, which would be clearly visible in this video. -

Is it a cobra?
The easiest way to find out is to put on a motorcycle helmet and get near it. If it hoods up and hisses it’s a cobra, if it spits at you it’s definitely a cobra. I don’t think it’s a spitter, though, because they have black markings and they’re usually very visible. There are spitters, though, that are almost completely white. In terms of head shape, eye size and eye location on the head, I’d say it’s definitely a cobra. They usually want nothing to do with humans, given the chance they’ll just eff off. They also strike from the top down, which makes their striking range very predictable. Next time it shows up, put on a helmet, put the visor down and walk up to it. 2 meters of distance will do the trick just fine.
