After the Thai National Police Chief set up a special investigation team tasked with cracking down on lese majeste cases, a high-ranking police revealed that the team was formed after the military filed lese majeste complaints.
According to Daily News online, Pol Lt Gen Sriwara Ransibrahmanakul, the Assistant Police Chief now heading the 19-member investigative team on lese majeste cases, revealed on Monday afternoon, 19 October 2015, that the police already submitted casefiles and arrest warrants for suspects of offences under Article 112 of the Criminal Crime Code, lese majeste law, to the court.
He mentioned that the police’s measure was prompted after the Thai military filed lese majeste complaints against individuals alleged for flaunting connections with the Thai monarchy for personal benefits.
The Pol Gen added that the arrest warrants against the suspects are likely to be issued by the military court on Wednesday, 21 October 2015, after which the police will arrest the suspects.
The head of the lese majeste investigation team, however, refused to disclose any information about the identities and numbers of the suspects, including, their behaviours. “Everything is in the case file. You will know about it when we take them for a remand, and we expect to remand them on Oct. 21,” Khaosod English quoted Sriwara as saying.
