Election investigation result in 15 days

The investigation of complaints against Bangkok governor-elect MR Sukhumbhand Paribatra is expected to be completed in 15 days, Pol Lt-Gen Taweesak Tuchinda said on Thursday.

The Election Commission on Wednesday decided by a vote of 3 to 1 to put off the endorsement of MR Sukhumbhand for 30 days, as proposed by the Bangkok election committee.

Pol Lt-Gen Taweesak, chairman of the Bangkok committee, said there were three complaints - two being investigated by his committee and the other by the EC.

All three complaints were filed by other election candidates and related to alleged mudslinging in the battle for votes.

The Bangkok election committee was expected to finish the investigation in 15 days, he said.
