Pheu Thai case not yet before NACC, says president
National Anti Corruption Commission (NACC) president Pol General Watcharapol Prasarnrajkit said he has not yet received a case concerning 40 former Pheu Thai MPs from the NACC’s subpanel.
The ex-MPs are seeking clarification over whether the NACC will pursue them for abuse of authority for proposing an amnesty bill in 2013.
One of the ex-MPs, Worachai Hema, took the issue to the media, saying the NACC was considering whether the MPs would be charged.
However, the NACC president dismissed this, saying the issue had not moved as quickly as reported. The matter is with its subpanel, which is still investigating the case, he said.
Watcharapol also dismissed speculation that the NACC’s resolution on the case would “wipe out” Pheu Thai’s MPs, saying its investigation would follow procedures and would be accountable enough for any examination.
