Thailand's Election Commission abstains from pursuing a move to dissolve political parties
The Election Commission (EC) in Thailand is currently considering a petition to dissolve the Pheu Thai Party and five of its coalition partners. The petition, which was first submitted to the EC in August of the previous year, alleges that former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra exerted influence over these parties.
However, the search results do not provide the name of the political registrar of the EC handling the case. No specific date or location is given for the meeting or the dismissal of Srettha Thavisin as prime minister.
The EC panel and the political registrar have both recommended the dismissal of the case, but the decision on whether further action will be taken is not yet clear. The source of the information is not specified.
Meanwhile, a gathering of key figures from the Pheu Thai, Bhumjaithai, United Thai Nation, Palang Pracharath, Chartthaipattana, and Prachachat parties at Thaksin's Bangkok home occurred on a day when Srettha Thavisin was dismissed as prime minister. However, the meeting in question is not considered to be linked to the formation of the Paetongtarn administration.
It is important to note that the 2018 organic law on parties prohibits interference by an outsider, which could lead to the dissolution of a party or parties. No new parties or parties involved in the case have been mentioned in this paragraph.
Recently, Paetongtarn, Thaksin's daughter, was stripped of her title as premier last week. The case regarding the alleged influence of Thaksin Shinawatra over the Pheu Thai Party and coalition partners is currently being considered for dismissal due to a lack of evidence. No new allegations or evidence have been presented in this paragraph.
As the EC continues to deliberate on the case, the public awaits a decision with interest. The political landscape in Thailand could potentially shift significantly depending on the outcome of this petition.
