Court dismisses Suthep’s request to revoke arrest warrant
By Digital Content



BANGKOK, March 4 – Thailand's Appeal Court has dismissed a petition by anti-government protest leader Suthep Thaugsuban, secretary-general of the People's Democratic Reform Committee (PDRC), to drop his arrest warrant on insurrection charge.

Mr Suthep’s lawyer on Tuesday attended a hearing session following a petition asking the Appeal Court to overturn the lower court's decision. The lower court had rejected a petition submitted late last year to review an arrest warrant issued for Mr Suthep.

The Appeal Court, however, decided not to revoke Mr Suthep’s arrest warrant, saying that the petition was redundant. (MCOT online news)

Yeah, these "courts" are SOOOO biased and in the "elites" pockets . . .

[Fat Haggis]

I feel sorry for the poor admin lassies, they've never had so much paperwork submitted in the past 48 hours!!

If Khun Abhisit can face the court so can Khun Suthep,

Indeed true, of course that little comment must also apply to Yingluck and Chalerm, Tharit, Jutaporn, Thida and a host of other characters intent on destroying the unity of Thailand by virtue of using the Red Shirts as cannon fodder and pawns yet again so as the Shinwatra clan can achieve ultimate power and the establishing of a Shinwatra dictatorship.

[Boxclever]

Finally the Thai justice system has made the right decision.

This man is a terrorist, a murderer and a traitor. In any other country he would be in prison and they would throw away the key.

Evil evil man

See...further evidence of a judicial coup!

I think you need to look up the definition of "democracy" (government voted to power via free elections) and "dictatorship" (no elections and ruled by one person).

Oh and just in case you missed it, The PTP was elected via democratic elections and is NOT a dictatorship.

Anyway...look it up, you'll be suprised to see the difference between the two

Obviously you didn't get to the part where representatives of the people make decisions for the benefit of the nation, rather than take orders from one (fugitive criminal) person for his benefit only.

48% of the votes cast is not a majority.

Check the complaints regarding the vote buying and the other forms less subtle of persuading people to vote for the P.T.P. Populist Rice pledging scams schemes, have you not noticed that many a farmer is still awaiting payment yet Thaksin had some billions of baht returned to him.

Democracy is not a word found in Shinwatra or P.TP. language or any dictionary they might pick up either.

Perhaps those rose tinted spectacles should be removed so as you are able to see clearly just what Shinwatra's and the P.T.P. really stand for.

Umm............they only dismissed the request because he already has another request .

You need to check your definitions of democracy and dictatorship.

- Dictatorship is where one person has absolute power, there is nothing saying he can't be elected

- Democracy is where the people have power, there's nothing saying this has to be achieved through election

What you describe as democracy is actually a 'representative democracy'.

[Loles]

Why, why, is benito suthep scared? Before he told: I DON'T CARE. But now there is a less crowd around him.

[chrisinth]

Once the country starts in a tit-for-tat battle like they are doing here, there will never be closure. The majority of the charges, on both sides, will never be prosecuted, a waste of time and resources.

[Loles]

Evil evil man

I don't think that benito is a terrorist, a murderer or a traitor. Of course if some-one is a politician impossible to be a traitor cause they have not any strong attitude. Just flags in different winds.

He is a simple greedy Thai politician (like taksin or yingluck) who need power for steal and cheat enough, and a bit more.

You ask your Thai mates who stand behind of benito suthep.

This man a puppet also like yingluck, he does which are ordered by his masters.

Nothing else.

I've heard it said,

The best way to conceal a lie is between two truth's.

sometimes one must sacrifice a piece to win the game.

and so to the best way to conceal a judicial out-come Is between two lesser opposing out-comes.

Or maybe you're just wrong of course.

I've heard it said that the best way to steal money is to appear to be helping whilst taking when nobody is looking. As an example, Get elected in a country by using that counties money to appear to be helping those who voted for you whilst stealing as well.

Or maybe I'm just wrong of course.

2011 election results, PT 48.41% percentage, popular vote, or 15,744,190. Democrats 35.15% percentage, popular vote, 11,433,762.

Your quite correct that these numbers is not a majority, and I am quite correct that saying that there are far more people voting for PT than voting for Dems,

So now we have established that fact lets get to the next, ok Popit,

Vote buying has been rife in Thailand, Fact, you buy one vote you just as guilty as if you buy one hundred votes, Both party's have been guilty of this, Fact, this has been the case from the birth of Democracy.

Populist policies are nothing new and again has been the case since the birth of democracy, would you like to show me a politician that do not use this tactic to win votes, lets face it, that's the name of the game, win more votes and you take the top job.

"have you not noticed that many a farmer is still awaiting payment yet" Ye'p sure have, and Who VERY PUBLICLY warned and threatened banks against approving loans to the government so the farmers can be paid, and then later after advice back flipped on his warnings and threats,

Your a smart boy aren't you, yes your correct your hero Suthep.

Now you have a few FACTS in front of you, unfortunately your yellow tinted spectacles still blind you from clarity.

[unanimosity]

Yeah, these "courts" are SOOOO biased and in the "elites" pockets . . .

You are absolutely correct. They are just driving up the price of justice.

Populist schemes are what democracy is all about. Politicians have constituents that support them financially and otherwise and there is always some payback for that. What is wrong with that?

As for the vote buying, this is beating the same dead horse all over again with the same tired schtick. How many times does it take for the feeble minds out there to comprehend that if vote buying were a substantive issue in the reality of the elections, Suthept would never have boycotted the elections. What, you say? That's right, because if vote buying and other election irregularities had any substance at all, Suthep would have championed the elections and invited independent international monitors to prove his allegations and send PTP, Yingluck, and Thaksin packing for at least five years, if not longer.

There's nothing like sitting on the fence, maybe you could inform us who should be in power following an election?

[rubl]

Well, if k. Suthep goes to court and gets arrested without bail, the protests will just continue. The groups have clearly evolved beyond Suthep in the sense that they can now do without him if necessary. Furthermore jailed on a charge of 'insurgence' with some fools up-North calling for secession AND being a leading figure in anti-government protests will look a bit weird to the outside world and the UN. To imprison political opponents has run out of fashion, even in Ukrania.

No body dare to arrest Suthep.

He is greater than God himself/herself now.

Nobody is and Suthep hasn't even say so.

BTW I wrote "if Suthep goes to court". Once inside in the court I doubt Suthep would resist arrest. More likely he'd say "it's on your heads to paint the caretaker government in an even darker picture of harassing and prosecuting political opponents."

Well difference is Thaksin gave also to the poor,Suthep only takes from the poor and give to the rich.So if u r from northeast then u want 100 Thaksins but no Suthep,easy as that

I can see Suthep saying, "No big deal. I'll just send in a representative to be arrested as I'm too busy still trying to overthrow the government, or whatever is left of the government." And after April he'll have a whole new government to overthrow. For being charged with an alleged criminal offense that happened in 2010, he is the master at manipulation.
