Top court to decide Srettha’s fate


The country’s Constitutional Court said it will hand down its verdict on Aug 14 in a case that seeks the dismissal of Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin (pic) for appointing to his cabinet a lawyer who served time in jail.

The case stems from a complaint from a group of former senators over the appointment of Pichit Chuenban, who has since resigned and was imprisoned briefly in 2008 for contempt of court over an alleged attempt to bribe court staff, which was never proven.
