The Bangkok Post reports that a number of military court cases have been transferred into the civilian system. Excerpt:
A total of 43 cases involving security and criminal offences have been transferred from military courts to courts of justice under an order of the National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO), says Prayut Phetkhun, deputy spokesman of the Office of the Attorney-General.
NCPO Order No 9/2019, signed by Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha before an elected government was formed, lifts NCPO Orders Nos 37/2014, 38/2014, 43/2014, 50/2014 and 55/2016. As a result, security and criminal cases being considered by the military courts must be transferred to the courts of justice and cases being considered by the military prosecutors must be transferred to the Office of the Attorney-General.
