If the PM did not order the temporary revocation of his position from the army, deputy police captain Pol Gen Surachate Hakparn threatened to report a wrongdoing grievance against Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin on Monday.
Pol Gen Surachate, aka” Big Joke”, said he had appealed to the Police Virtue Protection Committee against the expulsion order and even petitioned the top, in his power as president of the Police Commission, to have it reviewed. Pol Gen Surachate threatened to file a grievance against Mr. Srettha for omission.
The Council of State, the president’s legal adviser, even determined that the expulsion order to be unlawful, according to Pol Gen Surachate.
A police resource previously stated that the Police Commission may join on Wednesday to discuss whether the dismissal of Pol Gen Surachate was unlawful. The conference was to be presided over by Mr. Srettha.
In an effort to tackle a growing gap within the police force, assistant federal police captain Kitrat Phanphet was appointed acting authorities chief after Pol Gen Surachate and Pol Gen Torsak Sukivimol were transferred to the Prime Minister’s Office on March 20. He signed the expulsion order in April.
The Police Virtue Protection Committee, known as the” Administrative Court,” may determine whether or not Pol Gen Surachate would be reinstated in the police force.
He criticized Mr. Srettha for his obvious lack of leadership in the police power, arguing that the prime minister may use his power as a commissioner to resolve the issues.
According to reports in the media, Mr. Srettha hoped that Pol Gen Torsak and he would work together to preserve public trust and stop the fight from deteriorating.
Next week, Pol Gen Surachate said he would also report a misconduct grievance against Pol Gen Torsak, who was reinstated as the country’s police chief next month if he failed to withdraw the order.
He claimed that the fact-finding committee established while Pol Gen Kitrat was the acting police chief had not reviewed the dismissal order, so he stated that he intended to file a complaint with the National Anti-Corruption Commission ( NACC ) on Monday.
The Police Virtue Protection Committee is currently reviewing Pol Gen Surachate’s appeal against the dismissal order, according to Pol Gen Kitrat’s statement from Monday.
He insisted that the dismissal order was carefully considered, but he chose not to comment on the Council of State’s opinion.
He claimed that Pol Gen Surachate had the right to file a complaint if he felt treated unfairly.
He also shone a rumor that Pol Gen Torsak, who will be forced to retire at the end of September, might be the first choice.
