Popular Post webfact Posted March 24, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted March 24, 2014 Abhisit and Suthep face another murder charge from Wat Prathum caseBANGKOK, 24 March 2014 (NNT) - The Department of Special Investigation (DSI) has closed the case of the shooting of six people at Wat Prathum Wanaram temple. A murder charge has been pressed against former Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva and his deputy Suthep Thaugsuban.DSI Director-General Tharit Pengdit said the murder charge against Mr Abhisit and Mr Suthep was the result of the court’s ruling that the six people at Wat Prathum were shot dead by authorities on 19 May 2010 when the then government dispersed the “red-shirt” protesters.The former PM and Mr Suthep, who is now leader of the anti-government People’s Democratic Reform Committee, previously faced many charges lodged against them by the DSI. All of the charges involve the violent crack-down on the red-shirt protesters in 2010.-- NNT 2014-03-24 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Bocking Posted March 24, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted March 24, 2014 Well, if the people are accepting of the various charges brought by NACC, Constitutional Court etc., then it's only right that if the DSI are charging Abhisit and Suthep for the Temple murders, then they stand up and face the music. I'm sure that the DSI are extensively investigating, and will soon bring murder charges against, Yingluk, Chalerm and Tarit for the deaths at Pan Fah Bridge. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whybother Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I see that Yingluck and a few others took a page out of Suthep's book and didn't turn up to acknowledge charges against them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post jaidam Posted March 24, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted March 24, 2014 Nothing will be found against them , simply because the courts are sympathetic with the Ammart ( Hi-so class) Interesting. So, Abhisit and Suthep are "Ammart(Hi-so class)" whereas Yingluck, granddaughter of Princess Jantip na Chiangmai, one of the world's richest women even though she never did a days work in her life, thrust into power solely because of her genes, is not a member of this so-called Ammart that you speak of???? It shows who has believed the Amsterdam/red shirt propaganda without thinking through the (lack of) logic. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeO Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Nothing will be found against them , simply because the courts are sympathetic with the Ammart ( Hi-so class) The first part of your comments is correct, but the reason is that they cannot be found guilty of murder if they did not have the "finger on the trigger"...! If they wanted to try to make something stick, then perhaps they could bring charges of "conspiracy to murder", but then, they are not that clever are they...?! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either these soldiers were acting under orders or they weren't. The footage is there, the witnesses are there, we know it was army snipers, and the court has ruled (back in June 2013) that Suthep and Abhisit gave the orders to shoot. So they face their charges. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they face their charges. The article that you have linked to doesn't have anything about court rulings. What it does say is: The DSI argued Mr. Abhisit and Mr. Suthep should be held responsible for their deaths as the soldiers were operating under orders of CRES. Given that the soldiers were operating under the rules of engagement authorised by CRES (including Tarit), and that the soldiers appear to have acted outside those rules of engagement, it seems more like the soldiers should be facing charges, rather than Abhisit and Suthep. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickirs Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Sorry but Yingluck's dereliction of duty is far more important than bringing PDRC leadership to justice for murder. Murder is just doing business; dereliction of duty is corruption. Justice Thai style. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to throw blame around for soldiers not being investigated, fine, but be sure to include abhisit "It was clear that the military never took aggressive action” vejavija and General Prayuth "the military was not involved in the deaths of 6 civilians shot dead as they sought shelter inside a temple during the 2010 military crackdown" Chan-Ocha while you're at it.

dominique355 Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 DSI Director-General Tharit Pengdit said the murder charge against Mr Abhisit and Mr Suthep was the result of the court’s ruling that the six people at Wat Prathum were shot dead by authorities on 19 May 2010 when the then government dispersed the “red-shirt” protesters. If I remember well, the court found that the victims were shot with bullets from a type of rifle like the ones used by the army. That's all. The court did not rule who actually fires the rifle. Is that the result of an independent and unbiased investigation by DSI? Well, I guess now we know how "neutral" they are. Let's see if the Office of the Attorney General with actually file the charges. Last time they did, Yingluck rewarded them with hefty salary increases. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here and here for correct translations.
