“Somchai” expects the Constitutional Court to collapse a step further.

Bangkok, "Somchai" expects the Constitutional Court to dissolve "Kaoklai", pointing out that the decision to overthrow the government clearly states that the 10 former committee members will not survive, while MPs join in proposing a draft amendment. The law is up for debate. NACC decides on ethics Mr. Somchai Srisutthiyakorn, former Election Commission (EC) and academic, sees that the Election Commission unanimously resolved to send the matter to the Constitutional Court for decision. It is considered to be doing one's duty. And the time taken for consideration is not too fast. Because since the Constitutional Court's decision on January 31, the Election Commission took approximately 1 month and 11 days to submit a request to the Constitutional Court. Therefore it is considered not too early and not too late. The Election Commission sent the matter because it was clearly written in the court's decision that The Kao Klai Party committed acts that subverted democratic rule. which is written like this It mean s that the court has reached a conclusion on this matter and it is difficult for the Election Commission to decide otherwise. Can only send the matter out for the court to consider Another matter of dissolving the party. As for the court's decision guidelines, after the Election Commission filed a request to dissolve the Kao Klai Party, Mr. Somchai thought that the court would have to start considering whether to accept or not accept the request. which must definitely accept the request Because it is a request from an independent organization There would be no reason not to accept it. But what will you say when you receive it? There will be an opportunity for further inquiry. How much will the accused person come to answer the charge? How much time does it take? It is the discretion of the court. But if the court sees that this matter has been investigated before There is various data collection. It's quite meticulous. The court may make an appointment to make a decision immediately. 'So it is expected that when the matter reaches the court The court should take no more than 2 months to make a decision. and is expected to decide on the disbandment of the Kaew Klai Party Because the court previously ruled that it was wrong. The Election Commission also made recommendations regarding wrongdoing. Therefore, at the stage when the court will decide to dissolve that party. It would be quite difficult to be any other way. It should come out in the direction of deciding to dissolve the party. and disqualification according to Section 92 of the Political Parties Act. It is the right to apply for election for party executive committee members. which does not specify a time frame of how many years That is, deprivation of the right to vote for life. That will make it impossible to hold various political positions. that can be official It is necessary to see who the executive committee members of the party who will be disqualified for doing wrongdoing consist of. and look at the instructions for setting up a formal party exe cutive committee. Address in party regulations The other part is an appointment within the party, such as the deputy party leader. Which shouldn't be hit either. Therefore, the extent of the damage should be 10 people, and 1 in 10 people would justly leave to join the party. As for the Kao Klai Party, there will be 9 people left,' Mr. Somchai said. As for MPs who were involved in proposing a draft amendment to Criminal Law Section 112, Mr. Somchai said it was not related because the decision to dissolve the party came from the party's behavior. It affects only party executive committee members. The MPs who signed up to propose the law are another matter. But it is a matter that someone has filed a complaint with the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC), which is a serious ethical violation. It will be in accordance with Section 234 of the Constitution, which requires the NACC to set up a working group to inquire into the facts in order to present it to the NACC for voting. to send to the Supreme Court And if the court accepts the case, the accused must stop performing his duties immediately. and wait until the court has a verdict If the Supreme Court says it's wrong, it means the MP is fired from the day he orders him to stop performing his duties. and will be deprived of the right to apply for election for life. and may be deprived of the right to vote for no more than 10 years, which is expected to be under the consideration of the NACC for 1 year, and when sent to the court it should take approximately 3-4 months. Mr. Somchai still thinks that the Kao Klai Party has no chance to fight the case. Probably couldn't say that. There's just a small chance. that the party must try to clarify the facts and fight the issues that the court ordered to stop the action The party has stopped. The matter of amending Section 112 has been removed from the website. I have never been a bail bondsman for anyone. No campaigning There is no public discussion on this matter. It should probably end here, not to the point of d issolving the party. Therefore, the point of fighting is that the chance of success is quite low. But I would like to encourage you to fight with all your might. And I want you to look at the damage that will happen, that is, what will happen to those who are executive directors of the party. If they are fired, they will lose their right to be involved with the party in the future. And if you leave the party after making the decision, no one will be promoted to replace you. 'You have to think about whether you will use the resignation method first or not. It is the right of the Progressive Party to consider for itself. Because leaving first is like accepting. But if you don't leave first, you won't get promoted. And how to make progress and still be a group. Where do we go together? Let's form a new party together. which must be grouped together well Don't give in to power. Don't give incentives. Pulling it out will make it less powerful and hasten to restore its strength after there is a new party executive committee,' Mr. Somchai said. Source: Thai News Agency
