webfact Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Chuwit among inmates to be released from prison under royal pardon By PIYANUCH TAMNUKASETCHAI THE NATION Chuwit BANGKOK: -- OUTSPOKEN former MP Chuwit Kamolvisit will probably be among the first batch of 30,000 inmates released under an amnesty granted to mark His Majesty King Maha Vajiralongkorn’s accession to the throne, according to Corrections Department director-general Kobkiat Kasiwiwat. Chuwit, who began serving a jail term early this year, qualified for early release under the royal pardon, Kobkiat said. Those qualified mostly included inmates with fewer than two years to serve on their sentence. They were expected to be released within the next three days. While 55-year-old Chuvit qualified for release, another high-profile inmate, Chalermchai “Major Teung” Matchaklam, a former Army officer jailed for the murder of then-Yasothon governor Preena Lipattanaphan in 2001, did not qualify because he has been cited for “poor behaviour”.
