Auditor-General threatens local officials backing ex-PM

Why threaten?

Since political gatherings of five or more red shirts – all others can freely assemble – are against an Article 44 “order”, just arrest them.
What’s the point of giving yourself absolute power if you’re afraid to use it?

It’s a clear sign the AGO has been politicised. This action is outside the scope of responsibility for the government’s prosecutor of people accused of crimes, and only serves as political intimidation. It is a common trait of a ruling junta to misuse all facets of government organisations to advance its agenda, irrespective of abuse of power. In the case of the NCPO, it is a contradiction to its declared mission of reforming government abuse of power.
