The House of Representatives on Thursday rejected the idea to record der guess among the offences that would be pardoned under a new social asylum bill, with 152 MPs voting against the charge being included, while 152 voted in favor of the drive.
The alternative options to the proposed asylum costs for political offenders are included in a House special commission report.
The majority of the report, which outlined the findings of the agency’s research into different amnesty options, was supported by the House, which voted against the addition of Lese Majeste.
MPs in the government coalition oppose extending amnesty to those convicted of lese majeste, while the opposition People’s Party ( PP ) is in favor of an amnesty for those found guilty under Section 112 of the Criminal Code, also known as the lese majeste law.
The state will now be given access to the record thanks to the House. However, the government is never obliged to follow the agency’s tips.
Chairman of the particular panel, Chousak Sirinil, said that the statement is just a guide for granting amnesty to social criminals.
The report will be taken into account when the House considers four asylum bills that the PP and some other parties differently presented in the next parliament session, according to Mr. Chousak, who is also Pheu Thai’s constitutional expert.
Pheu Thai MP and general government whip Wisut Chainarun had previously stated that the House is unlikely to deliberate any asylum bills in the current treatment because they have not been scrutinized by parliament paddles.
Next month, Parliament is scheduled to go into corner.
Anutin Charnvirakul, the party’s leader and interior minister, reaffirmed the party’s opposition to any attempt to include der majoreste crimes in any asylum bill.
Pongpol Yodmuangcharoen, a United Thai Nation Party part who sits on the House commission, said an asylum should not be extended to those convicted of der qualifications.
Since 2005, he added, there have been 57, 966 scenarios involving democratic offenses. Out of these situations, there are 1, 206 which involve offences under Part 112, Mr Pongpol noted.
Chaithawat Tulathon, a PP representative and a member of the House council, said the main goal of an asylum is to cultivate unity, not to overturn or destroy any law.
