Chalerm questions TRCT report

Deputy Prime Minister Chalerm Yoobamrung Friday questioned the final report of the Truth for Reconciliation Commission of Thailand (TRCT) which states that "men in black" provoked the Army to use weapons against redshirt protesters in 2010.

 

Chalerm said the TRCT, which was appointed by the Abhisit Vejjajiva government, had no legal authority to come up with such a conclusion that there were men in black during the protests.
The TRCT report shows that the socalled “men in black” had received cooperation from redshirt guards, prompting the Army to use live bullets.
Chalerm said the authorised investigators of the Department of Special Investigation had concluded that there were no men in black among the protesters.
