Pheu Thai Party's legal expert Singthong Buachum on Monday filed a petition with the Constitutional Court against People's Democratic Reform Committee (PDRC) secretary-general Suthep Thaugsuban for allegedly trying to overthrow the country's democratic an

 

He called on the court to issue an injunction ordering that the protests be suspended so Suthep can be summoned to testify.

Singthong said the PDRC protests were not peaceful and that weapons had been used during the protest crackdown last Tuesday. He went on to say that if a political party was found involved, then it should be dissolved.

He said that he would also submit a letter calling on members of the National Human Rights Commission members to resign as they had been allegedly negligent in the political turmoil.
