webfact Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Police Warn PCAD Not To Sabotage ElectionBy Khaosod EnglishRiot police facing anti-government protesters at the entrance to Police Club, 29 January 2014BANGKOK: -- A high-ranking police officer has threatened swift legal action against would be election saboteurs on 2 February.Pol.Lt.Gen. Amnart Anart-ngam, the police commander in charge of overseeing the general election, said the police force is already gathering evidence of anti-government protesters who disrupted the advance voting on 26 January for legal prosecution.Disrupting or sabotaging the election is a criminal offence under the Thai laws, and carries a penalty of both fines and jail sentence."We will take action against every wrongdoer, no matter what political side they are," Pol.Lt.Gen. Amnart said, adding that he is seeking cooperation from the Election Commission (EC) to prosecute these suspects.For the general election on 2 February, Pol.Lt. Gen. Amnart said, the police will deploy as many as 200,000 officers to safeguard the polling stations across the country, which number at least 93,535 locations in 77 provinces.The massive police force would be reportedly commanded by 50,000 commissioned officers, and supported by 1,450 ′rapid response′ teams."You can say we have committed all the force we have in order to ensure that the election would be peaceful," Pol.Lt.Gen. Amnart said.The officer added that the situation is particularly worrying in Bangkok and 10 southern provinces - the major stronghold of anti-government movements.His remark came a day after the leader of the People′s Committee for Absolute Democracy With the King As Head of State (PCAD) reiterated his threats to block and disrupt the 2 February poll with any available means.Speaking to the crowd of protesters at Pathumwan Intersection last night, Mr. Suthep Thaugsuban vowed to "shutdown Bangkok completely" on the election day. He also urged all civil servants and officials to abandon their posts, and join the protesters in their campaign against the election instead."Come join us," Mr. Suthep said," Don′t care about the election!"PCAD has demanded that the election be scrapped in favour for the formation of an unelected "People′s Council", which would implement series of reforms deemed necessary by PCAD leadership before any election can be held.Nevertheless, Pol.Lt.Gen. Amnart said he believes there won′t be any violent incident on the election day itself, as there are numerous polling stations which would force anti-election protesters to thinly spread out across the capital city."I believe those who wish to exercise their voting rights would not be troubled," Pol.Lt.Gen. Amnart said, "The minority could not possibly force the majority".Source: http://www.khaosod.co.th/en/view_newsonline.php?newsid=TVRNNU1UQTNNamc0T0E9PQ== -- Khaosod English 2014-01-31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaisaregrt Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 hahahahaha, swift legal action, that means sometime later this year, have you ever known a cop to do anything fast here. This lot cant even tie their own shoe laces without some help, all the protesters will have to do is show up and the police will take off, besides they will be too busy supporting the reds and possibly taking a few pot shots at the protesters like they did the other day and all for nothing as the election will have to be held again, fools 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tx22cb Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 The cops have issued so many warnings - and then done nothing. Even last Sunday, I saw a video of a voter struggling to get to the gates of the polling station, while there were 5 vested policemen inside the gates watching the melee, doing sweet FA to help the voter get through. No wonder Suthep not only ignores the police's warnings, but mocks them too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJF Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 This was from last monday. They must have forgotten about this. I recommend we deal with the existing ultimatums first before we issue new ones. "The siege of government installations must end. In 72 hours from now, units of raiders will be dispatched to round up the protesters. This is not a threat, but a warning 72 hours in advance," said Chalerm, also the caretaker Labour Minister. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean Prayuth's faction of the army. Suthep threatened the rest of the army leaders with imprisonment if he gets power for their disobedience, so I think they'd be happy if one of their soldiers accidentally shot him! By accident you understand.

Take a look in the not to distant future when most of the government are up before the judge. Along with Suthep. Have you forgotten the wrongs of 3 years --I think not --your just being stubborn and wanting confrontation similar to the reds if you don't get your way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipkins Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 (edited) If the yellows can hijack the airport and get away with it I'm sure they can sabotage an election and get away with it. They have a corrupt and biased judiciary on their side and they know it. So yesterday PDRC gave categorical assurance to BBC live on line, to Not block or obstruct elections. Brother No2 Akanat , the first Non-Nepotistic PDRC leader and son of Suthep Suthep must have slapped his legs and u - turned again. So in the last week, 2 times the said no blockin, many times they say block obstruct etc. and we know which it is as we have the tv and video evidence of the travelling mob in action last sunday. Numbers are falling and I notice people hiding the whistles last night as they left Asoke and headed down Rachada. Think many are starting to feel they really could be arrested now and might behave a bit. Suthep also has threatened the Army.... which is not a good idea seeing as they have "access" to him To remind. Last PAD top leader to piss off army after they couped. Sondhi was given oer 100 reasons from the army not to do it again. Think it was deliverd by M-16. Sonthi was the Suthep of the day, so he needs to watch his own side more than the reds even. Also notable for the Coup lovers. These people could not even hit one old man in his car with 4 guys machine gunning him. Nobody at all on any side blamed the reds. Hmmm.

I have an I dea some one was trigger happy here. Watching too many Thai movies-soaps. Thais in many cases never know when to stop--no cut off point-- violence-drink-greed-- shows more now than 33 years ago. Getting to be a bit normal. Must be fuelled how the country is being run in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that would be swift. More likely in about 5 years time. For the general election on 2 February, Pol.Lt. Gen. Amnart said, the police will deploy as many as 200,000 officers to safeguard the polling stations across the country, which number at least 93,535 locations in 77 provinces. Hmmmm, doing the math and I get 2.14 officers per location. And if more than 4 or 5 protesters show up, what will these officers do? How about if 100 or more show up? Answer, do a runner. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are going to claim that Suthep threatened the army you should provide a reference. None of the google results I could find showed anything of the kind. Please note that I'm not claiming to have read every reference to Suthep that google can find. So either provide a reference or refrain from making things up, or at least let us know that there is no reference and that you think you remember reading something somewhere and just don't know when or where. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
