On Thursday, PM’s Office Minister Chousak Sirinil announced yesterday that a research on an amnesty bill may be discussed in parliament.
After wrapping up in July, Mr. Chousak stated that the commission he chairs will send its record on the draft laws on Thursday.
The government could give its approval for the investigation, according to Mr. Chousak, who is also the decision Pheu Thai Party’s constitutional expert.
There is no way to know whether the state may support an amnesty bill or allow other parties to introduce the legislation. ” That’s definitely an option”, he said.
The primary opposition party, which is opposed to any such asylum, insists that any such amnesty would be applied to offences committed under Section 112 of the Criminal Code or the Lese Majority Law. It is a difficult to review bill.
But, Mr. Chousak claimed that the Pheu Thai Party has not yet decided whether to introduce its unique amnesty bill in parliament, and that the study will look into any potential legal options.
According to the agency’s report, the government should support the amnesty bill, but it should only be allowed to be granted for 25 legal costs, as approved by the cupboard in 2005.
He agreed that Section 112 is a sensitive subject that warrants more debate.
