The National Anti-Corruption Commission made a decision to evaluate various government officials who are accused of allowing Thaksin Shinawatra to spend time in a doctor rather than a jail.
NACC secretary-general Sarote Phuengramphan claimed on Monday that the committee had resolved the issue after it was claimed that Thaksin was sent by representatives from the Department of Corrections and Police General Hospital to prevent him from serving his sentence there.
Despite not being particularly unwell, Thaksin was permitted to spend 180 days at Police General Hospital, according to the claim.
According to Mr. Sarote, the NACC had found enough information to conduct the investigation and had found sufficient witnesses and evidence to move forward with the case. According to him, the analysis would concentrate on 12 officers at the Department of Corrections and the Police General Hospital.
After 15 times in self-imposed captivity, Thaksin returned to the state on August 22 next year.
He was taken to the Supreme Court that evening, where he received an eight-year prison sentence in three different scenarios. By royal mercy, that statement was afterwards reduced to a year.
Due to his neck pain, hypertension, and lower blood oxygen levels, doctors decided to transfer him to the doctor on his first evening at Bangkok Remand Prison.
Thaksin was officially permitted to spend 120 days receiving treatment outside of jail, but the Department of Corrections allowed him to be there after December 22.
Thaksin was given a parole and released from the hospital on February 18.
The previous prime minister’s one-year prison name was officially overturned on August 31 of this year.
