One of its lawmakers claims that the ruling Pheu Thai Party will not allow anyone to raise concerns about former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra when the future general debate is scheduled to take place.
According to Krumanit Sangphum, the Pheu Thai MP for Surin and a deputy state whip, Mr. Thaksin is an stranger and that discussing personal matters with him during the discussion may violate House meeting rules.
” Pheu Thai MPs may object to someone bringing up issues involving the former prime minister and will provide an explanation of the circumstances and House meeting rules. If bogus claims are made, individuals who are defamed may report claims”, he said.
No legal group will need to be established for this, according to Mr. Krumanit, who stated that it is common for the ruling party to observe a argument. Justice Minister Tawee Sodsong would be able to respond to questions regarding Mr. Thaksin’s parole if needed.
During the discussion scheduled for April 3 to 4, Mr. Thaksin’s probation and health problems are expected to be brought up.
Since he was admitted to the Police General Hospital, where he spent six months in lieu of prison time, his health has been the subject of countless rumors.
