The Prime Minister has talked to Anutin about the case of the deputy district chief of Tha Uthen fleeing the Tak Bai case.

PM reveals he has talked to Anutin about the case of Tha Uthen's deputy secretary, one of the suspects in the Tak Bai case, returning to work after the statute of limitations expired. He has assigned the Interior Ministry to look into regulations after there was a proposal to confiscate retirement benefits and pensions. He said it would definitely affect the growth of the civil service. Prime Minister Paethongtarn Shinawatra said after the cabinet meeting about the proposal to cut the pensions of civil servants who fled the Tak Bai case that Deputy Prime Minister and Interior Minister Anutin Charnvirakul is responsible for this and has already given orders and discussed that the regulations are in the process of being prepared. When asked if there were any regulations that could seize the money, Ms. Paethongtarn turned to look at Mr. Anutin before saying, 'Please give me some time. We have to look into the details first.' But she already knows what happened. As for whether there are plans to go to the thre e southern border provinces to provide moral support to the victims, Ms. Paethongtarn said that there are actually plans to go to the southern border provinces already, but she will have to wait and see which provinces she will go to. However, she has already been to the three southern border provinces, and today she wore a shirt with the pattern of the three southern border provinces. When asked about the case of the district chief of Tha Uthen, Nakhon Phanom Province, who was one of the suspects who had an arrest warrant issued in the Tak Bai case and returned to work after the statute of limitations expired, Ms. Paethongtarn said that she would let Mr. Anutin answer about this matter, and that they had talked a while ago and asked Mr. Anutin to explain. When asked if it would affect the confidence of the Thai civil service system, the Prime Minister confirmed that everything is in accordance with the legal process. We have principles as the main thing. When Mr. Anutin goes to handle this matter, he must also use legal principles. When asked again whether the case of Tha Uthen's deputy district chief reflected the state's confidence in security, because when the statute of limitations expired, the suspect immediately returned to work, the Prime Minister said, "Yes." We must continue to investigate, but we must continue to build confidence in the country, which we understand. As for whether this matter will affect his career growth, the Prime Minister said, 'Yes, definitely.' Similarly, Mr. Anutin turned to answer the question by saying, 'Absolutely.' -316.-Thai News Agency Source: Thai News Agency
