Amnesty for coup leaders

Constitution chairman wants an amnesty for coup leaders included in draft

The Constitution Drafting Committee's chairman Prasong Soonsiri Tuesday asked the panel to ensure that the military junta will be given amnesty under the new constitution currently being drafted.


If so, it will be a first-ever amnesty in any of the so called "permanent" constitutions.

"If staging a coup is wrong under the new charter, will the Council for National Security (CNS) be tried in a Military Court or what? It won't be fair to them if after the charter is adopted, they all ended up going to jail," Prasong told fellow drafters during the meeting.

I was going to comment but just can't get my head around Khun Prasong's convoluted thinking. They should have some rice farmers with no education working on the constitution because they at least have some common sense and know the difference between right and wrong.

Looks like, future elected governments better starting worrying about possible coup and set up an Anti Coup Ministry, to look after the affairs!

RE: Amnesty for coup leaders

This coup should be excused, but future coups shouldn't be allowed; -- except that is unless the military thinks it should overthrow the democratically elected government.

There! I have solved the problem. Looking forward to seeing it in the new constitution. :-) TIT.
