NCPO denies military role in poaching of ex-MPs
13 Sept 23:14 Key points summarised by AI
- The National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO) spokesman, Maj Gen Piyapong Klinphan, explicitly denied any military involvement in the alleged "poaching" of former MPs to support Prime Minister Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha's political return.
- Maj Gen Piyapong affirmed that the NCPO closely monitors all political activities, including groups like the "Sam Mitr Group," ensuring they operate within legal boundaries without disrupting national peace and order.
- He stressed that military personnel are strictly bound by duty and law, making their involvement in such illegal political activities highly unlikely, and any found violations would result in severe disciplinary and legal repercussions.
