John K Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Actually the fact that they did not show today says it all in they have no respect. They were out to make trouble and now it is time to pay the check bin. The secondary actions of not showing today are linked to the primary actions of intended violence.

John K Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 (edited) CSD asks prosecutors to charge 3 protest leaders over alleged phone tapping The Crime Suppression Division Friday asked public prosecutors to file charges against three anti-coup leaders for having allegedly tapping phone conversations of two senior judges. CSD officers asked public prosecutors to file charges against Jakrapob Penkair, Chatuporn Promphan and Natthawut Saikua. On June 22, the three played back a tape of what they said was conversation of two judges related to the election fraud case against Thai Rak Thai. CSD officers then investigated and made a case against the three. Peerayuth Praditkul, a special prosecutor for criminal cases, will make a decision on January 18 as to whether to send the case to court.

John K Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 If I were to guess, I think Jakrapob Penkair will be saying goodby to his freedom. His name just keeps popping up in news clips that have the flavor of impending incarceration. He certainly has the Thaksin style arrogance, but he seems to have forgotten he needs to hire others to act it out to stay out of jail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John K Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 (edited) Colypyat old post or new the reality remains the same. However the protests have now changed to campaigns with some of the speeches particularly from the PPP/TRT being totally not related to politics, but how they plan to get even with the #@*!! That gave them the boot last September. So I guess you could call that a kind of sort of protest, and yes it still discredits the group so that has not changed.

march Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Metropol confident DAAD leaders can be prosecuted by the end of August The Metropolitan Police Commissioner is confident that legal proceedings against Democratic Alliance Against Dictatorship (DAAD) leaders can be submitted to the Criminal Court within the end of the month. Pol.Lt.Gen. Adisorn Nonsri (อดิศร รรทรีย์ ) reports that the Metropolitan Police Bureau will be ready to submit legal documents to prosecute Democratic Alliance Against Dictatorship (DAAD) leaders to the Criminal Court by the end of the month. Better late, than never. Or perhaps the last headline meant, "by the end of August", 2010. 4 UDD leaders charged for besieging Gen Prem’s residence BANGKOK, 7 July 2010 (NNT) - The prosecutor has filed criminal charges against four anti-government leaders for the besiegement of the residence of Privy Council President General Prem Tinsulanonda in 2007. The Ratchada Criminal Court on Wednesday accepted the prosecutor’s petition against the four core figures of the United Front of Democracy Against Dictatorship (UDD), comprising Mr Nuttawut Saikua, MD Weng Tojirakarn, Mr Veera Musikapong and Mr Wiphuthalaeng Phatthanaphumthai. The defendants, currently detained for terrorism charges, will be summoned for the case on 8 July 2010 at 9.00 hrs. The four are alleged of illegally assembling more than 10 people, leading a group of supporters to stage an anti-government protest and causing social disturbances outside General Prem’s residence on 22 July 2007. http://thainews.prd.go.th/en/news.php?id=255307070042 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
