Move Forward repeats call for enquiry into the party’s dissolution case

15 Sept 22:23 Key points summarised by AI

Move Forward urges the Constitutional Court to hold an enquiry session, allowing them to present witnesses in their dissolution case, rather than solely relying on written submissions.
Party leader Chaithawat Tulathon emphasizes the gravity of the pending case, which seeks the party's dissolution and a 10-year political ban for its executive committee, contrasting it with a less severe prior ruling.
The party claims the 15-day extension for their defense is inadequate, asserting that the fact-finding process, particularly concerning allegations of attempting to overthrow the constitutional monarchy, remains incomplete.
