emancipationthailand Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 (edited) For the first time in its five-decade history, the whole board of the Foreign Correspondents' Club of Thailand (FCCT) has been accused of committing lese majeste, a crime with maximum imprisonment sentence of 15 years. Laksana Kornsilpa, 57, a translator and a critic of ousted and convicted former premier Thaksin Shinawatra filed a lese majeste complaint against the 13-member board on Tuesday's night at Lumpini police station. Laksana claim, as quoted on ASTV Manager website, that the board's decision to sell DVD copies of Jakraphob Penkae's controversial speech at the FCCT back in 2007 constitute lese majeste act and that the whole board "may be acting in an organised fashion and the goal may be to undermine the credibility of the high institution of Thailand." Source : The Nation ...... I knew 2 things (Not 100% confirmed) .... 1. Mrs. Laksxxx is known to has some relationship (affair?) with one of the privy couxxxx. 2. Some of the Board's committees may not hold a resident in Thailand. Edited July 2, 2009 by emancipationthailand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
