BANGKOK: -- The National Anti-Corruption Commission will submit to the National Legislative Assembly next week two impeachment cases, one regarding constitutional amendments to change the composition of the Senate and the other concerning with the rice pledging scheme.
NACC secretary-general Sansern Poljiak said today (Friday) that since the NLA had passed the final reading of the parliamentary meeting regulations which empower the assembly to consider impeachment cases, the NACC decided to proceed with the two cases to the NLA.
In the first case, former parliament president Somsak Kiatsuranont and former Senate speaker Nikhom Wairachpanich are among former MPs of the Pheu Thai party and other coalition parties as well as senators facing the impeachment process for their endorsement of the constitutional amendments which are deemed unlawful.
As for the rice pledging case, Mr Sansern said that former prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra would face the impeachment.
