Democrats, frst verdict

[lembeh]

First result in democrats case:

Democrat cleared in first charge

 

The Constitution Tribunal ruled Wednesday that the Democrat Party had not breached the MPs and Senatorial Election Act because the act had lapsed after the coup.

 

The ruling was the first verdict in four counts of charges against the Democrat.

 

Judge Somchai read the verdict, saying the organic law had not been exempted by any coup order so it was annulled by the coup.

 

 

The tribunal is still reading other verdicts.

notice the tricky bit that the law was not in effect after the coup - both parties could get off on that....
