snoop1130 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Supreme Court not allow Yingluck to leave kingdomBy: The NationBANGKOK:--The Supreme Court's Criminal Division for Political Office Holders has rejected a request by former prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra to travel to Europe at the invitation of European Parliament members.In its order, the court said the invitation was insufficient reason for Yingluck to leave the country at this time and therefore her request, filed with the court earlier this week, was turned down.A copy of the court order was seen by The Nation Wednesday.European Parliament members Elmar Brok and Werner Langen, in their letter dated October 7, invited Yingluck to exchange views on the Thai political situation either in Brussels, Belgium, or Strasbourg, France.The invitation letter was just publicised last week.Yingluck is facing a legal case to be tried by the Supreme Court in connection with her government's corruption-plagued rice-pledging scheme.

benalibina Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Have contacted Elmar Brok and Werner Langen, who invited her, and informed them to read Thaivisa on a daily basis so they can form their own opinion about the happenings in Thailand.

waitforusalso Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I'm sure the European Parliament will be thoroughly impressed by the junta's dedication to personal liberty and freedom of speech.

slapout Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Sounds like a sensible decision which is not really debatable by those not personally aquainted with the entire saga of this little gal and her and her families traits. That ''rabbit'' gene seems to follow you for a lifetime once it is displayed. Then you add the similarity to family and association with same, a tight rein on the bit is a sensible decision.

slapout Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 (edited) Invalid in your opinion and I can accept that, no problem. She probably needs to be told ''No'' ever now and again, just to keep her aware of her true status and not what she may precieve herself as.

tbthailand Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 well, so that is how the junta gets off the hook for restricting her travel, they let courts do it. she's still going up the river... there are too many people who hate her, and they happen to be the morons calling the shots at the moment.

ldiablo Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 (edited) No surprise there. So let me get this right. Yingluck is in a legal case which in turn means she is innocent until proven guilty and is not allowed to visit the EU but the deputy defence minister general Udomdej who is being investigated for corruption in the Rajabhakti Park scandal is permitted and even encouraged by the PM to stay on as the deputy defence minister. Go figure. Edited December 2, 2015 by ldiablo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These guys are making serious strides in the world oppressive regimes' rankings. Well done! Do you think that any person in the USA, UK or the EU who is in the middle of a court case would be permitted by the courts to go on a jolly to another country. Do you believe that the court case should be put on hold (at great expense) just because Yingluck gets an invitation to go to the EU. An invitation which has no specific dates mentioned. She may be able to go at the end of the court case depending on what the verdict will be. If those two gentlemen from the EU think it is that important they can always get a first class flight (not on a Thai airline) come to Thailand and stay ina 5 star hotel at the EU's expense and get in some duty free Xmas shopping as well. Who knows, they could even meet different Thai people and perhaps learn more about the country and the people of Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go figure. Have you ever heard of the expression: As different as chalk and cheese? Yingluck is in the middle of a court case about negligence. AFAIK Gen Udomdej has not been charged with anything which to quote yourself, he also is innocent until proven guilty and he hasn't been charged with anything at all. If you believe that he is guilty and have the evidence proving it then give it to the police. If not it is only your opinion.

ginjag Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I have a crazy notion that someone overseas has sort of arranged this feeler, to see how the land lies. She is not a person to be quizzed on the Thai situation, If these EU persons had any brains they would interview someone like an elder statesman say Gen-P.

Will see it. Just an underhanded way to get at her brother.. The invitation was created to give her a way out. Yeah the judicial systems everywhere are bullies...murders, rapists, robber can sing a song about it, sometimes these bullies even lock you into small rooms and don't allow you to go shopping.

Srikcir Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 The test of the court's fairness lies in its reasoning for denying her travel. But all the court can state is - "the invitation was insufficient reason" The court has no judicial grounds per se, no legal analysis that it could cite to deny her trip other than the right to deny her request. The court essentially takes a vague and seemingly arbritary position that relies on no legal standard or precedence. Equality under this court is simply that which pleases the court who is quite aware of its masters expectations under Article 44 of the Interim Charter. The court's denial lacks sufficient reason. The EU ministers accomplished the purpose of their invitation - to show that the current government holds a vendetta against democracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MobileContent Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Looks the Junta is very worried about what Yingluck will say in the EU. No worries the EU has a rep office in Thailand and Yingluck can make an appointment in Thailand too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DogNo1 Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Has anyone thought of the implications of allowing Yingluck to travel to confer with the European Parliament members? What if they were to declare that Yingluck was being treated unjustly and that the Thai people should have the right of free speech and be able to vote for the government of their choosing? We've seen the recent reaction to the US Ambassador's positive and diplomatic remarks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hgma Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 (edited) If the EU Union (read Onion) wants to have first hand information about Thai politics, they have to invite Khun Chuvit, Great debater, Fast and Furious AND in the bailing system, as well. Just returned from the US after granting bail on a confession of 'forceful market cleansing'in Bangkok. No restriction on travel for this politician.
