rubl Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Would Thaksin be more happy if the OAG gave all evidence collected to a special UN Tribune? BTW why the need to mention this "Thaksin also said he wanted his supporters to stay calm and refrain from resorting to any violent mean." As for innocent since Interpol isn't looking for him, well lots of other fugitive criminals will be happy to hear this definition on who's innocent.

JOC Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 What a sad old man!! Like most Thais he don't realize, that there are consequences for your actions!! Your little sister will hopefully get the punishment, she deserves after costing the taxpayers more than 700 billion baht!! And before starting to worry about your sisters sentence, may I suggest, you get your sorry backside back to Thailand and start to serve your own sentence!!

Bluespunk Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Forget Thaksin Thailand !! ....... move on ... Yeah forget the thousands murdered in his war on drugs. Forget his attempts to buy off judges. Forget the violence he allegedly funded when Bangkok was occupied. Forget his culpability in the disaster that was the rice scheme, the attempts he made to subvert democratic procedures to get his amnesty, his refusal to cease his flight from justice and serve his gaol time. Too many times have the criminal actions of leaders from the past been forgotten or swept under the carpet. The result is the corrupt, greedy, criminally self serving politicians who know they can do as they will with very little chance of facing the consequences Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ldiablo Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 So tell me TV posters. Why has no arrest warrant been issued thru interpol for this man. He apparently robbed the country of billions of baht but no international arrest warrant but meanwhile the other dude from KTML or whatever it's called had an arrest warrant issued through interpol immediately. ??????

Exactly the same as the Philippines who happily got Marcos off the premises and left it at that. They knew he would be a problem wherever he was but not as much as actually being in the country and a very available figurehead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skywalker69 Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Would Thaksin be more happy if the OAG gave all evidence collected to a special UN Tribune?

As for innocent since Interpol isn't looking for him, well lots of other fugitive criminals will be happy to hear this definition on who's innocent.

Link to interview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jLAPCgQM0Sk Surely such a smart man as Dr. Pol Lt.Col Mr. T knows Interpol doesn't issue arrest warrants only informs members that a warrant has been issued by a member country which will immediately seek extradition upon detention. The only provisos are that the warrant must be for a crime within the Interpol charter and no member country is legally obliged to detain a wanted person. He was just being his usual smug, arrogant self as he knows LoS has never attempted to bring him back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She may well suffer under the same lack of fairness and unbiased scrutiny that his government tried with Abhisit and Suthep.
