NCPO talks to Pojaman

[Now or Never]

" The National Council for Peace and Order has summoned Khunying Potjaman Na Pombejra, the unregistered wife of former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra, "

What's an unregistered wife?

Apparently it runs in the family.

Yingluck was an unregistered wife and now she is an unregistered divorcee.

Fortunately her unregistered husband left before the proverbial sh!! hit the fan.

One of those quaint Thai thingys.

[ezzra]

She is believed by many to have been the purse strings behind Thaksin all along - demanding their cut of government projects and dolling out cash to red shirts and militants. Her 3 year sentence for tax fraud was all her own doing. That she was acquitted by the appeal court and that the Revenue Department refused to appeal to the Supreme Court are travesties of justice.

Yes, for you and your ilk those people you don't like are always guilty, regardless of the facts. I can only imagine the horror of living in your 'democracy'

Democracy shmemocracy... she's as dirty as the lot of them if not more, and any one

who believe otherwise is deluding him self....

[ballpoint]

She might want to take revenge on het fugitive ex-husband for dragging het into all the crap she had to undergo after the 2006 coup and court cases.

Would love to see het ratting on the "King of Dubai" and his sister.

You never know what she got on her sleeve, especially that she was not officially called in by the Army.

Smells fishy.

Well, if she starts singing we'll know for sure that it's all over.

un-registered as wife? I think most people would call that either the ex-wife, or divorcee. Probably something lost in translation.

[Payboy]

I hope they don't have to summon my unregistered wives. Need the national stadium for that.

What's an unregistered wife?

A wife that you divorce purely so that the money and property can go in her name and NOT be linked to you.. or vise versa!

Sorry U don't make sense Thaskin is Yinglucks brother

[bkkstooge]

Prayuth is following a standard playbook here, but he is doing it in a quite civilised way.

All of Thaksins family members and allies are being brought in to be given the same lecture - if you fund any trouble we will come after you hard, we will seize all your assets and you will be in front of a military court and you may be locked up for a long time - try to oppose us and you may not live to regret it.

What the military has to do is cut off the source of funds that could possibly stage a rebellion, and they are doing this systematically.

I expect SC asset will be seized next week, along with various other companies who have been funded out of previous administrations, and all money transfers in and out will be under more scrutiny.

Chase the money

Exactly, they have pretty much stopped the money flow out, now they need to stop the money funding the UDD terorists.

Soon Thailand will be a lot more peaceful with lots of criminals locked up.

Better still tell Thaksin that his 2 sisters, son and brother -in law will remained locked up until he he returns to Thailand

Have his daughters every returned from their first class overseas shopping trip ?

Sorry Gunna but I really don't think this reptilian scumbag gives a monkeys toss about even his own family. He's already basically thrown his baby sister under a bus.

Her 3 year sentence for tax fraud was all her own doing. That she was acquitted by the appeal court and that the Revenue Department refused to appeal to the Supreme Court are travesties of justice.

Oh, God -- another one. Another one who uses the court decisions to legitimize Yingluck and Thaksin being dumped, but cries miscarriage of justice when the ruling goes a way you don't like.

Which is it? Are the courts legitimate or illegitimate? Or is legitimacy predicated on only the rulings you like?...

We all know the answer. We ALL know the answer.

Wah!

Courts can be bought.. remember pastry-gate of Taksin ? Who says it did not happen this time.

But I believe the problem is more that they did not pursue it any further.. take it up one step higher. That is not the same as questioning the courts, that is questioning the (maybe influenced scared of their job under the PTP) civil servants of the revenue department. Not the courts.

But maybe you read something else as I did.

But what Dogmatix said about doling out cash is probably true. Well before the days of red shirts, she was described by no less than Snoh as the bagman going around doling out cash.

I had heard for a long time that she collected cash for Thaksin as well. During the building of

the corruption plagued airport, a man had paid a lot of tea money in order to get the parking concession at the airport. Apparently he did not get the concession, and a story was printed

in which he named Thaksin's wife as the person he paid his money to, and he said he was basically going to spill the beans if he did not get his money back . I never heard another word about this

story again, think someone had a talk with him.....

Is he still breathing?

The opera's not over until the fat lady sings.

[Carrerakiss]

I wonder if or when the Junta will revoke Taksin's passport and issue an arrest warrant with Interpol

Interpol may not work because Thaksin is part of the "New World Order" together with Obama and Hollande.

But revoke the passport would be easy.

Revoking the passport would seem a fairly obvious step to take. Although if one believes what one reads, Mr T has other passports so may not be severely inconvenienced. But the symbolic effect presumably means it will happen at some point. Edited May 25, 2014 by Carrerakiss

I wonder what will happen to that case. It could get a bit difficult under the present circumstances.

I did say on another thread that the army might pursue an international arrest warrant but thinking about it that probably wouldn't work. The military had control due to force. There's no legal basis for it that I know regardless of the reasons. I would think that's how many countries will view it so day the army has no authority to ask for the warrant.

Wah!

I followed the tax case in detail. Potjaman's claims of giving the shares free of charge (and tax) to her step brother as a wedding gift didn't stack up because the dates were wrong.

Smells fishy.

It is known that she doesn't like Thaksins sisters. It is reported that said something like the situation is Yaowapa fault as can never eat enough (meaning that she overdo the corruption and being a joke about her being too fat).

On the other side she is seen regularly with her "ex" husband and it is said that they only separate for financial reasons. But he has a lot of young girls and spent a lot money on them.

Also she is always the more reasonable person and not known to break every agreement like her husband.

So it can be interesting....she may or may not sell her husband for her own fortune (and her kids).

I hadn't heard that but can well believe that she doesn't like Yaowapa who must have been difficult to handle because she has her own Northeastern faction in the PT, i.e. many greedy mouths to feed. She and her faction were essentially why Newin pulled his faction out and started Bhumjai Thai leading to the Thaksin party's loss of power to the Abhisit government. Samak, the first Thaksin nominated PM under the 2007 constitution was an outsider with no faction of his own and didn't favour any particular faction. But when Yaowapa's husband, Somchai, succeeded him it was a different story and Yaowapa's NE faction was given pride of place at the piggies' trough over Newin's NE faction.

The divorce was apparently in the hope that the Supreme Court wouldn't go after Thaksin's assets in her name but they did anyway. Similarly the Constitutional Court rejected Yingluck's argument that Potjaman's brother wasn't part of the clan due to the divorce. I hadn't heard the story of her spending money on young girls.

[orange31]

Damn pity she didn’t remarry at least a toy-boy while she had the chance.

Well it would probably be for show, just to keep the hardcore critics satisfied that her divorce was genuine and not motivated by some other factor, but I'm game!! (PS - only without a prenup mind!!)

One of those quaint Thai thingys.

But the title of unregistered wife does imply that she is performing wifely duties, at least some of the time, such as budgeting, furnishing houses, childcare and some marital duties best not imagined in any details.

Not the same as "Ex-wife" unless this is just another example of lost in translation by inept journalists. One might hope that journalists choose their words more carefully in the current climate.. or perhaps they do.

''Unregistered wife" probably alludes to the fact Mr Thaksin and Mrs Pojaman are divorced. "Technically" divorced it is IMO. This has been in fashion among, wealthy, couples in my country of origin too, in most cases, as a legal (well...) form of income tax evasion, in some other cases to protect the family(ies)' assets when one of the spouses is (or expects to be) exposed to legal actions with possible financial consequences. In the case of Mr Thaksin and Mrs Pojaman, also considering the timing of their (technical) separation, one could be inclined to think it were both cases... IMO this couple is anyways linked by so many dark secrets, so many dirty tricks, and so many corrupt acts, that only death can truly separate them. When the truth could be known (forget it totally), they might be the two main characters of a successfull popular dark, evil, novel...

Very good answer and your probably right on. Their divorce was only in the interests of monetary gain. Nothing more.
