The Constitutional Court has urged the Office of the Attorney-General (OAG) to take prompt action on a lawsuit filed against Thaksin Shinawatra, the influential figure behind the Pheu Thai Party. This legal action, which accuses the former PM and the ruling party of wrongdoing, has stalled, prompting the court's intervention.

 

The court has given the OAG a 15-day deadline to gather necessary witness statements and evidence and submit them for further judicial review.

 

This appeal comes after activist lawyer Thirayut Suwankesorn lodged the complaint with the OAG last month, only to see little movement within the initial period. Frustrated, he brought the case to the Constitutional Court earlier in the month.

 

Key allegations include Thaksin's undue influence over the Pheu Thai Party, allegedly orchestrating its activities behind the scenes.

 

Thirayut's complaint highlights a clandestine meeting at Thaksin's house in Bangkok, following former PM Srettha Thavisin's dismissal, where Thaksin purportedly guided coalition leaders to quickly identify a successor.

 

Further accusations involve Thaksin's alleged manipulation of Pheu Thai's exclusion of the Palang Pracharath Party, led by Prawit Wongsuwan, from the coalition.

 

It's claimed Thaksin used televised speeches to mould government policies, notably those regarding natural resource development around Koh Koot islands, leveraging a historic relationship with Cambodia's former PM Hun Sen.

 

Additionally, Thaksin is accused of exploiting his influence to avoid imprisonment, benefiting from a royal pardon and evading actual prison time under the guise of requiring medical treatment, reported Thai Newsroom.

 

Should the court find Thaksin guilty, potential consequences include imprisonment for Thaksin and the dissolution of the Pheu Thai Party, which would temporarily bar its executive board members, including his daughter Paetongtarn Shinawatra, from holding political office.

If only it could happen in reality ............LOL

[dinsdale]

This is just optics. We should all know the result even if this ends up in any court. The PTP is essential to the survival of the royalist military establishment in government.

some thai people really dislike khun toni, and there are many reasons for that ...

hopefully, this time they will find a way to remove him and his family for ever from politics ...

If the Constitutional Court is intervening, the decision has already been made. The current government is toast.

I want to see Tony in a prison uniform picking up trash along the highway....

Rubbish. See my above post. It's optics. The only reason the PTP would be "toast" would be to create such turmoil that the military would move in. As it is this is not necessary because the PTP are needed to maintain the coalition and as such maintain the royalist military establishment's influence within government.

Everyone is going to get a go at being PM apart from the elected one by the sound of this nonsense.                        I smell a Prawit resurgence or is that another trouser incident  🤔

Lateral thinking when you have a real grasp of the English language

If the oag is stalling , the money has gone through

[jippytum]

The fact they had to be reminded to respond to the request  for  information following the lawsuit indicates justice fot Thaksin will be delayed as usual.

You can choose any party to govern...But make sure you choose the one that we want.

Agree.  The only political parties and political figures punished are the ones the public overwhelming wants and supports.
