'No change' in Korkaew status

Red-shirt leader Korkaew Pikulthong remains a Pheu Thai party-list MP as he has not yet been sentenced by a court, Election Commissioner Sodsri Satayathum said yesterday.

 

She said the EC could start verification if it was requested. The Constitution Court will have the final say on the matter.
Sodsri’s comment was in line with that of Deputy Senate Speaker Surachai Liengboonlerschai.
Korkaew went back to jail after the Criminal Court revoked his bail for threatening the Constitution Court and creating fear in society.
Meanwhile, the government will declare its achievements during its first year in power on a TV pool on December 15 before the Parliament session on December 21, Pheu Thai deputy spokesman Jirayu Huangsap said yesterday. The televised programme would start from 5pm, he said. The government would also inform the people what it was going to do in the second year.
