Lovely story...full of cold hard facts that make us sit up and take notice of the irrefutable proofthat is to be provided to a skeptical nation. Here we have a fine upstanding Democrat MP from Trang, a pillar of the community, his impartiality and selfless actions make him a model MP, makes accusation against Kun Thaksin. Quelle surprise! To make this claim, he must have had access to the personal communications and telephone calls of said Kun Thaksin or of Tarit (does he have their phones tapped, I wonder?), and so we can be assured that this in no empty claim brought by a political opponent seeking to denigrate Tarit and undermine his authority. No we are shortly going to see the transcripts of the telephone call that ordered Oily Abhisit's arrest...you can bet your life on it.

There is no way our Rt Hon MP would have made this claim without hard evidence is there? After all he's totally upstanding, selfless MP who has devoted his life to advancing the prosperity of the Thai working class with never a thought for his own interests...or am I being too cynical?

Way to cynical....

"Someone faraway." My lord, the soap opera stories that seem to captivate the editors of this newspaper is just mind boggling.

Thaksin was never accused of using the military to atatck and kill civilians. The charges in this matter are significantly different than the charges laid against Thaksin. More importantly, Thaksin was on hand to answer to the investigations into the suspicious deaths of people that died iin the drug war.

Thaksin used the police to attack and kill civilians.

When where ?

That is your opinion. Multiple investigations including a comprehensive review undertaken by the Abhisit government showed nothing of the sort. Even human rights organizations that condemned the infringement of civil liberties in the campaign against the narco terrorist drug cartels did not make such claims. You may have no concept of human rights laws, but there is a big difference between the use of a civilian police force and a military.

Drugs war, and who do you think controls them. 2010 v 2012?

My understanding is that there are allegations of corruption within the military. The allegation seems credible to me as border security comes under the Thai military. In order for the yaba to make its way across the border from Burma, it must transit large areas under the direct surveillance and management of the military.

Thaksin told police to fix the drug problem, and the people killed innocent people because of it.

The link below makes an interesting read concerning summary justice and also the slaughter of innocents. So i presume of course that the relevant authorities will of course consider pressing murder charges against Thaksin with the same zeal as they have concerning Abihisit and Suthep?

An estimated 2,500 people were killed during a three-month crackdown on drugs by Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra in 2003. Now, one of a half-dozen panels belatedly investigating the killings has reported that as many as 1,400 of those victims were killed and labeled drug suspects despite having no link to drugs.

As the current maladministration professes to believe in fairness for all I am sure they would not expect the bail jumper Thaksin to be shielded from the due process of the law would they ?

Good link. It's all clear now. Chalerm needs the medicine to cure his tin ear. I am sure the current government will abide by the rule of law. The PM stated that in a recent address to a gathering of prosecutors, so it must be true.
