Thai court rules that EX-PM should be sentenced to one year in prison

Thailand’s Supreme Court ruled that Thaksin and Tra, a prime minister, had to be sentenced to one year in prison, influencing an influential political dynasty.

This decision is related to the previous case, which has been sentenced to imprisonment for many years for corruption, but it takes less than a day in prison while moving to the hospital.

On Tuesday, the Supreme Court ruled that this transfer was illegal and he should be sentenced to 76 years old.

Thaksin and his family have dominated Thai politics since they were elected PM in 2001. His daughter Paetongtarn was a former leader, but was removed from the office last month.

Shortly after the ruling was announced, Thaksin issued a statement on social media.

He also vowed to maintain power to serve monarchy, Thailand and people.

The former PM was expelled from the 2006 military coup and mainly lived in Dubai.

When he returned to Thailand in 2023, he immediately convicted corruption and power abuse in the office and was sentenced to eight years in prison.

But Thaksin spent several hours in prison before complaining about the heart problem and later moved to the high -end wings of the Thai Police General Hospital.

In accordance with his petition for the royal pardon, the king of Thai was sentenced to one year.

Thaksin stayed in the hospital for six months and received parole and moved to his house in Bangkok.

On Tuesday, the Supreme Court judge said in a statement that Thaksin said, “He knew or recognized that he was not fatal or emergency.”

Thaksin had a basic medical state, but could be treated as an outpatient patient, but the judge ruled that hospitalization was illegal.

The 14 -story case, known in Thailand, was attracted by the floor of the hospital.

The handling of this incident has caused many Thai criticisms, and rich and powerful people are often treated for privilege.

Before the ruling on Tuesday, many people were closely monitoring Thaksin’s movement.

Last week he flew in Thailand as a private land, and he said he was being treated there. He said he tried to fly again for court hearings on social media.

He greeted the media and supporters with Paetongtarn in court in Bangkok on Tuesday morning. Thaksin was wearing a yellow tie and wearing a color related to Thailand’s monarchy.

Paetongtarn told reporters after the ruling that she was “worrying” to his father, but they and their families were in a “good spirit.”

She also said she would work as an opposition party with her family’s Pheu Thai Party.

Thaksin’s incident occurs in a period of political turmoil in Thailand, and the court decision on Tuesday is another signal of the changing luck of Shinawatra Clan and Pheu Thai.

“The 14th floor case” is not the only event that Thaksin faces in recent months.

He was also accused of insulting the king of Thailand, but last month the court acquired him as Les-Majeste.

Meanwhile, after Cambodian leader Hun Sen called the Cambodian border conflict in Thailand, Paetongtarn was in controversy.

She was removed from the office after the Constitutional Court found that it had violated the ethical standards expected in her office.

Last week, the Thai parliament chose Anutin Charnvirakul as a new PM and ranked third in two years.

AnUTIN’s bhumjaithai party went bankrupt from the coalition led by Pheu Thai and secured enough support to overcome the premiere in another party’s parliament.
