Future Forward objects to charter court’s date for verdict in loan controversy

13 Sept 07:05 Key points summarised by AI

The Future Forward (FF) party strongly objects to the Constitutional Court's decision and timing for the verdict in its 191.2 million baht loan case.
FF argues the Election Commission (EC) failed to follow legal procedures, as its own subcommittees had previously cleared the party of wrongdoing.
The party criticizes the court for rejecting its request to present 17 witnesses, noting a different standard applied in a similar Democrat party loan case.
FF suspects the court's verdict timing, set just three days before a censure debate, aims to dissolve the party and prevent its MPs from participating.
Despite concerns, FF expresses faith in the justice system and confirms its executive members will not resign ahead of the ruling.
