Tarit's little empire is unraveling court decision by court decision.

He jumped in with both feet and unfortunately like his trusty companion Chalerm both ended up in his mouth.

Hi OH ( Johnny Walker ) Silver away and put it on the CMPO tab.

[greg71]

Maybe if this happens Suthep can now pay for his own hotel suite at the Dusit Thani .

What's so funny about that? The report doesn't say when it was delivered.

[seajae]

cant wait for this moron to face court on charges of overstepping his authority and using personal bias in his decisions, like chalerm he needs to actually stop and think before following thaksions orders to the letter.

[smedly]

in any other democracy it would require a court order to do most of the stuff this buffoon does in the first place - it would save a lot of time and money if we actually had legal process in this country rather than bully boy abuse of power - I vote the DSI should be disbanded for it's bias and incompetence

[chainarong]

DSI cannot seem to understand the common thread to police work, police are there to uphold the law, the courts are there to interpret the law, the DSI has no right to order the freezing of bank accounts, until an application is made to the court and keep in mind those banks / people that carried out this request can be charged , including DSI

[Scamper]

As we wonder why an " urgent " appeal on February 21 to carry out a directive was not released until February 25, this is nonetheless unmistakably good news. It was utterly, utterly ridiculous that the academic and national, cultural icon Dr. Seri was ever investigated, but there you have Chalerm's nasty vindictive campaign out in full focus. The DSI and CMPO are now in the lack-luster position of trying to continually dodge court rulings that inconveniently work against their narrative.

[Bkkbound]

Tead the tea leaves.. Games over, yinluck working out of bkk, the courts moving decicively against Taksin,,, Control over the reds who are becoming desperate is now the priority.

Sounds like a change of power is slowly creeping upon us.

Chalerm stop and think..impossible, this clown has no idea whats going on from one foot in mouth incident to the next.

Keep up, Suthep does not stay at the Dusit Thani.

It's a trap. Chalerm's idea. He wants to pounce on them when they go shopping.

[ALLSEEINGEYE]

So judging from most of your past posts, you must do a hell of a lot of walking.

[Robby nz]

Sounds like another of these old Mongolian proverbs :

"Man with both feet in mouth has no legs to stand on"

[wprime]

Sounds like a change of power is slowly creeping upon us.

Sounds like Tharit realises this. I invite people to read about his past, his "personal bias" changes depending on who's in power.

A new defeat for Chalerm and CMPO click

[Suriya4]

Good news. More money for party

[Stone Inscription 1]

They should use these funds to pay the rice farmers.

I love the way the courts always come down on the side of Suthep. Who is the real power behind this guy?

Thanks KK. Wonderful!!

[SuwadeeS]

The really power is 901, who else.

And this is supposed to be a mob?

Why should these funds be used to pay the farmers what the CARETAKER GOVERNMENT OWES?

The debt to the farmers is owed by the PTP caretaker government,

NOBODY ELSE.

[Basil B]

Seems then this was an unlawful action.

I hope Suthep and the others sue for the hardship and missed investment opportunities lost due to the freezing of their assets, and I hope it will be those that gave the orders not the ones who carried them out they sue.
