Yingluck's Lawyer Summoned By Military For 'Attitude Adjustment'

By Khaosod Eng.



BANGKOK — The top legal adviser to former PM Yingluck Shinawatra was summoned by the military for "attitude readjustment" today after he publicly criticized her impeachment last Friday.

Singhtong Buachum, a lawyer and former Pheu Thai MP, was “invited” to meet with a military unit in Bangkok today for “conversation and attitude readjustment,” said Lt.Gen. Kampanart Ruddith, commander of 1st Region Army.

"What Singhtong has been telling the military and the media is different," Lt.Gen. Kampanart said. "So there was some misunderstanding." Singhtong was reportedly released later in the day.

Last week, Singhtong criticized the junta-appointed legislature’s decision to impeach Yingluck for allegedly failing to stop corruption in her administration's rice-pledging scheme.

He said his team was especially concerned by the criminal charges pressed against Yingluck, and asked the junta to grant the former PM amnesty. "If there is no amnesty, reconciliation will fail," Singhtong said.

"Attitude Adjustment"

I wonder if we will be hearing anything from old "Two Lips from Amsterdam" in the coming days?

Chalerm could use some attitude adjustment.

Another reminder:

Please use discretion in your references to the government. Phrases which can be considered as anti-coup will be removed. Referring to Thailand or the government as a dictatorship, military dictatorship or other such terms will be removed.

Any posts which can be construed as rumor mongering are not allowed.

Posters violating these rules, and the forum rules will receive a warning, a possible suspension of posting privileges or a ban from the site.

What ever happened to Chalerm anyway? Have not seen or heard any noise from him in quite a while.

I guess THAK is going to have to hire a new lead lawyer for dear sister now. This one is probably scared stupid after today.

Which was probably the whole point of the exercise.

"reconciliation will fail" a not so subtle suggestion that Thaksin will let loose his mercenaries again. I hope the pay is good. What was the death bonus last time?

Wasn't he already stupid, maybe now shxt scared of lying again, not like the old days under PTP when white lies or any lies necessary to stay in power were OK.

"grant the former PM amnesty. "If there is no amnesty, reconciliation will fail"

So we don't think yingluck is guilty, but we want you to forgive her guilt anyway and if you don't forgive her there will be trouble.

As for the attitude readjustment. I wish the Junta dressed this up a bit like the UDD did with their attitude re adjustment schools and called them political schools.

This is the only thing the Junta can learn of the UDD. How to sell something by packing it correctly for mass consumption.

The guy, during martial law, rattied out a high rank military official. Be careful, the army has specia powers. This is Thailand not the US.

For a redshirt???????.................................... Way overpriced.

"How to sell something by packing it correctly for mass consumption."

Just like your rhetoric.

So in essence, you condone "attitude readjustment"?

Lotta baggage to carry home.

Just wondering why aren't all former Thai Prime Ministers impeached for not stopping corruption if you are going to impeach Yingluck for failing to stop corruption?

Have to start somewhere... :-)

he is her lawyer and the case is before the courts. Soldiers should not be interfering in court cases and what can be alleged is up to the courts to decide. Readjusting the defence councils thoughts would be seen as perverting the cause of justice in many civilised countries. A very serious criminal offence. I feel that the darkest years are ahead for Thailand and the U.S are correct in their thoughts on the place.

Sigh!

Reminds me of my school days. They used the strap to try and knock me into line... lol.. didn't do much good.

The legendary slap om the wrist in disguise....

God, she never stops being hot

Time of the year for your new prescription glasses old chap ?
