Yingluck Shinawatra's countersuit against attorney-
general Trakul Winitnaiyapak and three prosecutors for
alleged malfeasance in their handling of the rice-pledging case
against her.
The court ruled that their actions were lawful.
Ms Yingluck filed the lawsuit on Sept 29, accusing Mr Trakul,
Chutichai Sakhakorn, Surasak Treerattrakul and
Kittinan Thatpramuk of malfeasance under Section 157
and failing to properly perform their duty in the justice
system in violation of Section 200 of the Criminal Code.
She said the attorney-general and the three other prosecutors
failed to properly examine all evidence and witnesses to
clarify contentious points against her, including allegations
of corruption and dereliction of duty, as required by the
law on criminal procedures against holders of political office.
Ms Yingluck also accused the prosecutors of submitting an
additional 60,000 pages of documents for inclusion in
the case,saying the documents had not been inspected
by the joint panel of National Anti-Corruption Commission
members and public prosecutors who finalised the case.
The court said Ms Yingluck's accusations were not backed
up by solid evidence, only extracts from news media which
were unofficial.
It added that the prosecutors had properly complied with
the law on criminal procedures against holders of political
positions and related regulations.
Although the court is required to adhere mainly to the
NACC report, it is authorised to call for more witnesses to
testify or more documents for consideration, and the
defendant has the right to do the same for the defence.
The court found that the prosecutors had not mishandled
their duty and had no intention to persecute the defendant,
and ordered the dismissal of Ms Yingluck's lawsuit.
News,Politics,Bangkok Post, 6 October 2015.
Believe that general Trakul Winitnaiyapak and three
prosecutors do their best for their duty.
Sincerely Yours.
