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."

He and those who helped him are above the law

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 two sentences says it all. It´s never going to happen!

It's rather amusing when they say they want him to return to jail considering the fact that he never spent any time in jail. There is probably a 0% chance that he will be locked up. He's too rich to be locked up, guys with that wealth never see prison time in Thailand. 

He's not too rich to be jailed, but he has supporters in extremely high places who control what happens with or without legal shenanigans.

He's already received a royal pardon. 

However, many seen to overlook this small point and challenging this small point could end up with clause 112 being raised.

Taksin has stolen billions of dollars from this country, he fled in his private jet,, lived his life up in Dubai and travelled the world whilst the people he swore to help have rotted, yes he should be locked up today they should add on that he escaped from prison and tack on another 20nyears then lock him up before he takes off again

In think jail time should only counted as time when the person is actually in jail.

If the person, in this case Thaksin, is in a hospital, that is no jail time. Just stop counting when he goes to hospital and start counting again when he is back in jail.

This system would make sure that nobody is in hospital to avoid actual time in jail.

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.
