Jatuporn Gets Suspended Six-Month Term For Defaming Abhisit

[AleG]

Why this buffoon is still walking free is beyond my understanding!

Powerful friends... who wouldn't want him to start squealing if he begins to have justice served, I suppose.

The Chimp has a right to sue for defamation for being compared to Jatuporn

In the Thai Monkey court?

[Tatsujin]

If they suspend the sentence then why bother hearing the case.

If that was anybody on the street that did the defaming, then they would be in chains now.

Deferments and suspended sentences are the norm nowadays for the rich, powerful or otherwise well-connected. The reason being they can put off actually punishing anyone with influence and hope that everyone forgets it and it goes away and then no one loses face or actually suffers much real consequence from their actions.

Yep 99% of this forum should be in prison already...

Thai courts - "Hub of Suspended jail terms" for the Hi-So's and powerful.

What it really suspends is belief.

it suspends any hope for any real justice.

Very easy once you get your brain around the judges' rationale:

The jail term was commuted to two years and then suspended on grounds that Jatuporn, a former Pheu Thai party-list MP and core leader of the red-shirt United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship, had never served time before.

I know, I know, thinking about that reasoning too much can cause a serious headache, or it could strain the neck muscles from shaking the head for too long. But it should be interesting to see what happens once he (or Sondhi) had to go to jail for one offence in the last instance, would that revoke all other bail decisions?

BTW, anybody knows where I can book a course in Thai logic?

After 30 year in this amazing country I am still searching for (Thai Logic) it.

But that was his first jail sentence in August. This is a completely different jail sentence, and so is his 'second' offence. Even though he is appealing the first sentence, as far as that is concerned, he is guilty and must now prove himself innocent. So, he is guilty. So how on the second jail term can he still walk free? He should by now, be in jail and fighting the appeal on his first crime from within, and if that were the case he would not be trying to spread the appeal out over two years would he. He would have his lawyers seeing to it within weeks.

Courses on Thai logic are difficult to find, rumour has it the only one is on the Planet thargungg X in the zawillion Galaxy far far away.

The likeness is uncanny. Is this his good side?

Jataporn has never been to Jail before, lucky he was only visiting this time................
