Ombudsman asked to probe Kittiratt

The Green Politics group on Thursday asked the Office of the Ombudsman to investigate the ethics of Deputy Prime Minister Kittiratt Na Ranong for his participation in a meeting between Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra and a group of businessmen at the Four Seasons Hotel on Feb 8.

The request was submitted to Chief Ombudsman Sriracha Charoenpanich by Jaturun Boonbenjarat, representing the group.

Mr Kittiratt admitted in a press interview this week that he was with the prime minister at the meeting.

    Disc 4- "Where did you get your information that it's appointed almost 100% PAD supporters" If you look at the latest crop of committee appointees, which obviously you didn't, you would know where I got that fact. Do some research to prove me wrong then, if you can. Too often people comment without doing any background checks at all.

    D1 , D3 is your understanding of democracy that after elected,government can do whatever it wants?Do you know the meaning of checks and critics? You think it is nothing wrong when Yingluck and Kittirat have a private meeting,which clearly shows a conflict of interest .
    Ombudsman is neutral.Where did you get your information that it's appointed almost 100% PAD supporters and anti Thaksinites to all it's committees? Truth today?

    Disc 2 - The ombudsman is supposed to be neutral under it's setup in the Constitution, maybe that's why it's appointed almost 100% PAD supporters and anti Thaksinites to all it's committees.

    Unfortunately someone has to keep this administration in check before they run roughshod over all of Thailand.

    Ombudsman will be so busy accepting complaints from groups that do not bear any legal consequences.
