Pheu Thai leader Julapun Amornvivat has flatly denied a secret deal to secure amnesty for Thaksin Shinawatra in exchange for 74 parliamentary votes backing Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul. The reported bargain comes ahead of December’s no-confidence debate involving 18 government office-holders. On Sunday, Democrat leader Abhisit Vejjajiva threatened an investigation into any improper intervention. Meanwhile, People’s Party leaders warned against political interference. Thaksin seeks amnesty in four major cases, including ฿46.373 billion in confiscated assets. However, corruption exclusions threaten his bid, while reported committee objections raise further obstacles. Crucially, Thaksin has issued no reported personal denial. Neither has any evidence of a deal emerged.

Pheu Thai Party leader Julapun Amornvivat on Sunday categorically denied a secret political bargain to secure amnesty for Thaksin Shinawatra. The alleged deal would exchange Pheu Thai’s 74 parliamentary votes for favourable treatment of the former prime minister’s criminal cases.

However, Democrat Party leader Abhisit Vejjajiva warned that his party would investigate any improper intervention. Meanwhile, senior People’s Party figures questioned the reports but rejected political interference in the amnesty process.

The controversy comes ahead of December’s no-confidence debate against Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul. Notably, Thaksin himself has not been identified as publicly denying the allegations.

Julapun denies secret Thaksin amnesty bargain and insists Pheu Thai needs no deal to support Anutin

Speaking at the Udon Thani International Horticultural Expo on Sunday, November 1, Julapun rejected the reported negotiations. The Labour Minister denied both secret and openly discussed arrangements between Pheu Thai and Bhumjaithai.

Furthermore, he insisted that the two parties were already coalition partners. No special agreement was needed to secure parliamentary cooperation, he argued. Julapun also maintained that the government remained stable despite mounting speculation over December’s confidence vote.

According to Julapun, neither he nor Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul had discussed an arrangement involving Thaksin’s amnesty. Their conversations had concerned government business, he explained.

Separately, he stressed that the former prime minister’s application was a legal matter for the responsible committee. Julapun denied government involvement in determining its outcome. He also rejected suggestions that coalition changes were being negotiated alongside the controversy.

Any decision about admitting additional parties into government would rest with Anutin, Julapun said. Accordingly, he dismissed suggestions that Pheu Thai was seeking concessions to guarantee parliamentary support. His remarks represented the strongest government-side denial since the allegations surfaced on Friday. However, the Pheu Thai leader’s statement was not a personal denial from Thaksin, whose application remains under examination.

Reports link Thaksin amnesty bid to 74 Pheu Thai votes in December’s planned no-confidence debate

The controversy intensified following reports published on Friday, October 30. These alleged that Thaksin was seeking support from government figures and members of the amnesty committee. In exchange, Pheu Thai’s 74 MPs would allegedly back Anutin and his ministers during December’s no-confidence debate.

The reports specifically identified 18 government office-holders who could benefit from that parliamentary support. However, no documentary evidence establishing such an agreement has emerged.

The alleged negotiations were linked to the expected no-confidence debate between December 7 and 11. As a result, the reports concerned a specific parliamentary confrontation rather than ordinary coalition cooperation.

They suggested that Thaksin’s application could receive favourable consideration in return for Pheu Thai’s votes. Nevertheless, the existence of such an arrangement remains unsubstantiated, despite the political attention surrounding the claims.

The speculation also involved Kla Tham Party leader Captain Thamanat Prompow, whose party reportedly controls 58 parliamentary seats. However, reports suggested that Thamanat was not interested in the proposed arrangement.

No confirmed agreement involving him has emerged. Similarly, no evidence has established that Pheu Thai offered its parliamentary votes in exchange for amnesty. Even so, the allegations have prompted responses from senior politicians across the government and opposition.

Abhisit questions legal basis for Thaksin amnesty and warns committee members against misconduct

On Sunday, Democrat Party leader and former Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva issued a direct warning over Thaksin’s application. Speaking to reporters, he questioned whether the former prime minister’s previous cases qualified under the new amnesty legislation.

Abhisit argued that Parliament had enacted the Peaceful Society Promotion Act 2026 principally to protect participants in political demonstrations. Therefore, he saw no obvious justification for extending its protection to Thaksin’s previous criminal proceedings.

Abhisit acknowledged that the Committee on Promoting a Peaceful Society was responsible for determining eligibility. However, he insisted that its decisions must comply with the legislation. He also warned that committee members could face consequences if they disregarded the law’s requirements. His intervention raised questions about the legal scope of the amnesty process and the conduct of officials examining applications.

Asked about reports of negotiations between Pheu Thai and Bhumjaithai, Abhisit said he did not know whether they were accurate. Nonetheless, he recognised that politicians facing outstanding legal difficulties might seek protection under the legislation.

He also rejected suggestions that the controversy would influence the opposition’s parliamentary responsibilities. The reported negotiations concerned coalition parties rather than the opposition, he explained.

Democrats promise investigation as Nattapong questions need for parliamentary bargaining over amnesty

In response, Abhisit confirmed that the Democrat Party would investigate any improper conduct if evidence emerged. His warning followed two days of speculation involving the government, opposition leaders and Thaksin’s legal representatives.

The allegations concern both the interpretation of the amnesty legislation and the government’s parliamentary position. Still, Abhisit stopped short of claiming that a political agreement had been established.

The Democrat leader’s objections centre on the distinction between political protest cases and proceedings involving public office. He maintains that the legislation was principally intended to protect people prosecuted over political demonstrations.

Thaksin’s application, by contrast, concerns four previous cases involving his period in government and subsequent legal proceedings. Consequently, the committee must determine whether those cases qualify under the law or fall within its exclusions.

Meanwhile, People’s Party leader Nattapong Ruangpanyawut questioned the alleged negotiations on Saturday, October 31. Speaking to reporters beside Vibhavadi Road, he stressed that Parliament had already approved the amnesty legislation.

Thaksin therefore possessed the legal right to submit an application without negotiating parliamentary support. Nattapong said he could see no reason for political bargaining when the former prime minister could already exercise that right.

Nattapong rejects interference while Rangsiman urges caution over rumours of a secret political deal

Yet Nattapong distinguished between making an application and attempting to influence the committee’s decision. The former was permitted under the legislation. The latter, he warned, would constitute unacceptable political interference.

Asked about reports involving Pheu Thai’s support for 18 Bhumjaithai ministers, Nattapong rejected any such arrangement. In addition, he warned that both he and the public would condemn attempts to manipulate the process.

Nattapong did not argue that Thaksin should automatically be excluded from consideration. Instead, he insisted that the application must be assessed according to the law and the merits of the cases. His comments placed responsibility for determining eligibility with the committee established under the legislation. On that basis, he rejected the suggestion that parliamentary bargaining was necessary to secure a lawful decision.

People’s Party deputy leader Rangsiman Rome also addressed the controversy on October 31. Rangsiman acknowledged hearing the reports but warned against treating political rumours as established facts. He said the available information was insufficient to determine whether Pheu Thai and Bhumjaithai had reached any agreement. Even so, he suggested that negotiations could become more attractive if opposition scrutiny exposed serious government weaknesses.

Rangsiman vows parliamentary scrutiny as Thaksin’s October amnesty application faces legal obstacles

Rangsiman also referred to information reaching opposition politicians from sources within political circles. However, he declined to identify any party as responsible for circulating the allegations concerning Thaksin.

He insisted that the People’s Party would continue examining the government’s conduct regardless of negotiations elsewhere. In particular, he identified allegations concerning collusion in Senate elections as an issue requiring parliamentary scrutiny.

The People’s Party deputy leader said opposition MPs intended to pursue those allegations during their examination of the government’s record. Moreover, he argued that politicians should assess the evidence and vote in the national interest.

He also warned against allowing political bargaining to prevent accountability where serious wrongdoing had been established. Despite those warnings, his remarks stopped short of confirming any agreement involving Thaksin or Pheu Thai.

The political controversy follows Thaksin’s formal application for amnesty on October 8. His lawyer, Winyat Chatmontree, submitted the request and publicly confirmed it on October 12. The application seeks consideration under the Peaceful Society Promotion Act 2026.

The legislation was introduced to address legal consequences arising from Thailand’s prolonged political conflicts. However, its provisions contain specific exclusions that could prevent Thaksin from obtaining relief.

Thaksin seeks relief in four major cases but corruption exclusions threaten his bid for political amnesty

Thaksin’s lawyers argue that previous proceedings against him were politically motivated, particularly following the September 2006 military coup. The application concerns four principal cases arising from his earlier period in power and subsequent legal proceedings.

One involves the confiscation of approximately ฿46.373 billion in assets. Another concerns a government-backed loan arranged through the Export-Import Bank. The remaining matters involve the two- and three-digit lottery scheme and telecommunications and satellite concession arrangements.

His legal representatives maintain that these proceedings cannot be separated from the political conflict surrounding his removal from office. Winyat has also said Thaksin wants to clear his name and live peacefully outside politics.

By contrast, the legislation excludes corruption and misconduct, serious offences against the monarchy, and offences causing death or grievous bodily harm. The classification of Thaksin’s previous cases is therefore central to the application.

His lawyers seek consideration of the political circumstances surrounding the proceedings. Critics, however, argue that the nature of the offences places them outside the legislation’s protection. The distinction is central to Abhisit’s objections and the committee’s examination.

Specifically, the law’s exclusions concerning corruption and misconduct present potential obstacles to Thaksin’s application. No final ruling on his eligibility has been announced.

Screening committee examines Thaksin cases as reports reveal objections over corruption exclusions

The application is currently being examined by a screening subcommittee chaired by Justice Ministry Permanent Secretary Piyasiri Watthanawarangkun. Its findings will subsequently be considered by the full Committee on Promoting a Peaceful Society.

That committee is chaired by Deputy Prime Minister Pakorn Nilprapunt. Under the legislation, the committee has an initial 180-day period to complete its work. Extensions are also permitted. Submitting an application, however, does not guarantee amnesty.

A further development emerged on Sunday when local media sources reported concerns within the committee itself. According to the report, a committee member had informally communicated objections concerning Thaksin’s eligibility to Prime Minister Anutin.

The member reportedly considered all four cases ineligible for amnesty. The objection centred on their connection to corruption and misconduct involving the exercise of public office.

The report also referred to Section 7 of the legislation, described as principally protecting participants in political demonstrations. Under that interpretation, Thaksin’s previous cases would fall outside the intended protection.

The report additionally identified legal obstacles concerning the asset confiscation proceedings. However, the reported communication was informal and did not constitute an official committee ruling. No final determination has been announced.

Committee objections echo Abhisit’s warning as PM prepares ministers for December confidence debate

Notably, the reported objections closely reflect the legal questions raised publicly by Abhisit. Both concern whether the legislation can cover cases involving a former prime minister’s conduct while holding office.

The issue is separate from the allegations of parliamentary bargaining. Even without any political agreement, Thaksin’s application must satisfy the legislation’s eligibility requirements. The committee’s legal examination consequently remains central to the controversy.

On another front, Prime Minister Anutin has rejected suggestions that his administration intends to avoid parliamentary scrutiny. Speaking on October 31, he maintained that ministers were ready to answer questions during a no-confidence debate.

Anutin also disclosed that he had previously instructed Cabinet members not to travel during the expected proceedings. However, disagreements over scheduling had prevented the debate from taking place earlier.

The prime minister insisted that government business and national interests must take precedence over political confrontation. He also expressed confidence in the stability of his administration. The debate is expected between December 7 and 11.

The reported amnesty arrangement specifically concerns parliamentary support for Anutin and 18 government office-holders during those proceedings. Yet no verified evidence has established that Anutin agreed to influence Thaksin’s application.

No evidence establishes a secret amnesty deal as opposition prepares to challenge Anutin’s government

Nor has any confirmed agreement emerged involving government ministers, Pheu Thai’s MPs or members of the amnesty committee. The alleged bargain remains unsubstantiated despite the attention it has attracted. Pheu Thai’s 74 MPs nevertheless represent a substantial parliamentary bloc.

Their votes could affect government voting strength during a confidence challenge. Julapun, however, insists that cooperation between the coalition partners requires no separate arrangement.

Separately, reports involving Thamanat and Kla Tham have not established their participation in negotiations. The opposition has maintained its intention to proceed with parliamentary scrutiny.

Rangsiman has specifically identified the Senate election collusion allegations as a matter requiring examination. Nattapong has rejected interference in the amnesty process. Abhisit has promised an investigation if improper conduct is established. None of those statements, however, confirms that the alleged political agreement exists.

Thaksin has made no reported personal denial while Pheu Thai rejects claims of an amnesty bargain

Another unresolved issue concerns Thaksin’s personal response to the reports. As of Monday morning, November 2, the available reporting has not identified a direct public denial from the former prime minister.

His party leader has categorically rejected the allegations. Thaksin himself, however, has not been identified as personally addressing the reported parliamentary bargain. His lawyer has explained the legal grounds for seeking amnesty, but those explanations preceded the latest allegations.

There is also no established evidence that Thaksin has deliberately refused to answer questions about the reports. The absence of a reported personal denial does not establish that any agreement was reached. Nonetheless, the distinction remains clear.

Pheu Thai has denied the alleged arrangement, while Thaksin’s personal response remains unreported. In parallel, the committee’s examination of his application continues as the only confirmed formal process concerning his eligibility.

Abhisit’s intervention has added a warning concerning the conduct of committee members. He has made clear that the Democrat Party will investigate improper action if evidence emerges.

Amnesty ruling remains pending as opposition presses ahead with scrutiny of Anutin’s coalition government

Nattapong has insisted that Thaksin’s application should be considered on its legal merits. Rangsiman has questioned the reliability of the rumours while confirming that opposition scrutiny will continue. Julapun has denied negotiations and maintained that the government remains stable.

Anutin, for his part, has insisted that his ministers are ready for December’s parliamentary confrontation. The immediate legal question remains whether Thaksin’s four previous cases qualify under the Peaceful Society Promotion Act.

The screening subcommittee must examine the application before the full committee considers its findings. At the same time, the government faces the expected no-confidence debate, with opposition MPs preparing to challenge its record.

The reported connection between those two processes remains unproven. No official decision granting Thaksin amnesty has been announced. Equally, no verified agreement involving Pheu Thai’s parliamentary votes has emerged.

For now, Thaksin’s application remains under examination, while Abhisit has warned that any improper intervention will face Democrat Party scrutiny. The government also faces December’s confidence debate amid continued opposition scrutiny and Pheu Thai’s categorical denial of a political bargain.

在生活、媒体、政治、泰国

为泰党领袖朱拉蓬·阿蒙维瓦断然否认了有关他信·西那瓦获得特赦的秘密协议，该协议旨在以74张支持总理阿努廷·查恩维拉库尔的国会选票为条件换取他的赦免。据报道，这项交易发生在12月即将举行的涉及18名政府官员的不信任投票前夕。周日，民主党领袖阿披实·维乍集瓦威胁要对任何不当干预行为展开调查。与此同时，人民党领导人警告不要进行政治干预。他信寻求在四起重大案件中获得特赦，其中包括被没收的463.73亿泰铢资产。然而，腐败豁免条款威胁到他的申请，而据报道委员会的反对意见也构成了进一步的障碍。至关重要的是，据报道他信本人并未对此予以否认。也没有任何证据表明存在这样的交易。

为泰党领袖朱拉蓬·阿蒙维瓦特周日断然否认存在任何秘密政治交易，以换取他信·西那瓦的特赦。据称，该交易将以为泰党在议会的74张选票换取对这位前总理刑事案件的有利处理。

然而，民主党领袖阿披实·维乍集瓦警告说，该党将调查任何不当干预行为。与此同时，人民党高层人士对相关报道提出质疑，但否认存在对特赦进程的政治干预。

这场争议发生在12月针对总理阿努廷·查恩维拉库尔的不信任投票辩论之前。值得注意的是，他信本人尚未公开否认这些指控。

朱拉蓬否认与他信达成秘密特赦协议，并坚称为泰党无需任何协议即可支持阿努廷

11月1日星期日，朱拉蓬在乌隆他尼国际园艺博览会上发表讲话，否认了有关谈判的报道。这位劳工部长否认了为泰党和泰自豪党之间存在任何秘密或公开的谈判安排。

此外，他坚称两党已是联合执政伙伴，无需达成任何特殊协议即可确保议会合作。朱拉蓬还表示，尽管外界对12月的信任投票猜测不断，但政府依然保持稳定。

朱拉蓬表示，他和总理阿努廷·查恩维拉库尔都没有讨论过有关他信特赦的安排。他解释说，他们的谈话内容都是关于政府事务。

此外，他强调，前总理的申请是相关委员会的法律事务。朱拉蓬否认政府参与决定该申请的结果。他还驳斥了有关政府正在就此争议进行联合政府更迭谈判的说法。

朱拉蓬表示，任何关于接纳其他政党加入政府的决定都将由阿努廷做出。因此，他驳斥了为泰党寻求让步以确保议会支持的说法。这是自上周五相关指控出现以来，政府方面最强烈的否认。然而，为泰党领导人的声明并非他信本人的否认，他信的申请仍在审查中。

有报道称，他信的特赦申请与12月计划举行的不信任投票中为泰党获得的74张选票有关。

10月30日星期五发布的报道加剧了这场争议。这些报道指控他信正在寻求政府官员和特赦委员会成员的支持。作为交换，为泰党的74名议员据称将在12月的不信任投票中支持阿努廷及其部长们。

报告特别指出18名政府官员可能受益于议会的支持。然而，目前尚未出现任何文件证据证实存在此类协议。

据称，这些谈判与12月7日至11日期间预期的不信任辩论有关。因此，这些报道涉及的是一场具体的议会对抗，而不是普通的联合政府合作。

他们暗示，如果为泰党投票支持他信，他的申请可能会得到优先考虑。然而，尽管这些说法引起了政治关注，但这种安排是否存在仍未得到证实。

此次传闻也牵涉到克拉坦党领袖塔马纳·普罗姆波上尉，据报道，该党控制着58个议会席位。然而，有报道称，塔马纳对这项提议并不感兴趣。

目前尚未有任何确凿证据表明他参与了任何协议。同样，也没有证据表明为泰党以议会选票换取特赦。即便如此，这些指控仍然引发了政府和反对派高层政治人物的回应。

阿披实质疑他信大赦的法律依据，并警告委员会成员不得有不当行为。

周日，民主党领袖、前总理阿披实·维乍集瓦就他信的申请发出直接警告。他在接受记者采访时质疑，这位前总理之前的案件是否符合新大赦法的条件。

阿披实认为，国会制定《2026年和平社会促进法》的主要目的是为了保护政治示威参与者。因此，他认为没有明显的理由将该法的保护范围扩大到他信之前的刑事诉讼中。

阿披实承认，促进和平社会委员会负责确定资格。但他坚持认为，该委员会的决定必须符合法律规定。他还警告说，如果委员会成员无视法律要求，可能会面临后果。他的发言引发了人们对特赦程序的法律范围以及审查申请官员行为的质疑。

当被问及有关为泰党和泰自豪党进行谈判的报道时，阿披实表示他并不清楚这些报道是否属实。但他承认，面临棘手法律问题的政治人物可能会寻求法律保护。

他还驳斥了有关这场争议会影响反对党履行议会职责的说法。他解释说，报道中的谈判涉及的是执政联盟各党派，而不是反对党。

民主党人承诺展开调查，纳塔蓬质疑议会就大赦问题进行谈判的必要性

对此，阿披实确认，如果出现任何不当行为的证据，民主党将展开调查。此前两天，政府、反对派领导人和塔信的法律代表之间一直存在各种猜测。

这些指控既涉及对特赦法案的解读，也涉及政府在议会的立场。不过，阿披实始终没有声称已经达成政治协议。

这位民主党领袖的反对意见主要集中在政治抗议案件和涉及公职人员的诉讼程序之间的区别上。他坚持认为，这项立法的主要目的是保护那些因政治示威活动而受到起诉的人。

相比之下，他信的申请涉及他任职政府期间的四起案件以及随后的法律诉讼。因此，委员会必须确定这些案件是否符合法律规定，或者是否属于法律排除的情形。

与此同时，人民党领袖纳塔蓬·鲁昂帕尼亚武特于10月31日星期六对所谓的谈判提出质疑。他在维巴瓦迪路旁对记者说，议会已经批准了特赦法案。

因此，他信完全有权在无需获得议会支持的情况下提交申请。纳塔蓬表示，既然这位前总理已经可以行使这项权利，他就看不出有什么理由进行政治讨价还价。

纳塔蓬拒绝干预，而朗西曼则敦促各方对有关秘密政治交易的传言保持谨慎。

然而，纳塔蓬区分了提出申请和试图影响委员会决定这两种行为。前者是法律允许的，而后者，他警告说，将构成不可接受的政治干预。

当被问及有关为泰党支持18名泰自豪党部长的报道时，纳塔蓬否认了任何此类安排。此外，他还警告说，他本人和公众都将谴责任何操纵选举进程的企图。

纳塔蓬并未主张他信应自动被排除在外。相反，他坚持认为，申请必须依法并根据案件的具体情况进行评估。他指出，确定资格的责任在于根据相关法律设立的委员会。基于此，他驳斥了需要通过议会协商才能确保合法裁决的说法。

人民党副主席朗西曼·罗姆也于10月31日就此事发表了看法。朗西曼承认听到了相关报道，但警告不要将政治传言当作既定事实。他表示，现有信息不足以判断为泰党和泰自豪党是否达成了任何协议。即便如此，他暗示，如果反对派的审查能够揭露政府的严重缺陷，谈判可能会变得更有吸引力。

兰西曼誓言将对塔信10月份的特赦申请进行国会审查，该申请面临法律障碍

朗西曼还提到，反对派政客从政界内部人士那里获得了一些信息。但他拒绝指明是哪个政党散布了有关他信的指控。

他坚持认为，无论其他方面的谈判如何，人民党都将继续审查政府的行为。他特别指出，有关参议院选举中存在勾结的指控，需要议会进行审查。

人民党副党魁表示，反对党议员打算在审查政府执政记录时追究这些指控。此外，他还认为，政治家应该评估证据，并以国家利益为出发点进行投票。

他还警告说，不应允许政治交易阻碍对已查明的严重不当行为的追责。尽管发出这些警告，但他的讲话并未证实他信或为泰党之间存在任何协议。

这场政治争议源于他信于10月8日正式申请特赦。他的律师温雅·查特蒙特里提交了该申请，并于10月12日公开确认。该申请寻求根据2026年《和平社会促进法》进行审议。

该法案旨在解决泰国长期政治冲突引发的法律问题。然而，其条款中包含一些特定例外情况，可能导致他信无法获得救济。

他信寻求在四起重大案件中获得赦免，但腐败豁免条款威胁到他获得政治特赦的努力。

他信的律师辩称，此前针对他的诉讼是出于政治动机，尤其是在2006年9月军事政变之后。此次申请涉及他早期执政时期及之后法律诉讼中产生的四起主要案件。

其中一项涉及没收约463.73亿泰铢的资产。另一项涉及政府担保的、通过进出口银行安排的贷款。其余事项涉及两位数和三位数彩票计划以及电信和卫星特许经营安排。

他的法律代表坚称，这些诉讼程序与他被免职的政治冲突密不可分。温雅特还表示，他信希望洗清罪名，并在政治之外过上平静的生活。

相比之下，该法不包括贪污和渎职、严重危害君主制的罪行以及造成死亡或严重人身伤害的罪行。因此，对塔克信以往案件的分类对于该法的适用至关重要。

他的律师要求考虑诉讼背后的政治环境。然而，批评者认为，这些罪行的性质使其不受法律保护。这一区别是阿披实提出异议以及委员会审查的核心所在。

具体而言，该法律中关于腐败和不当行为的豁免条款可能对塔克信的申请构成潜在障碍。目前尚未公布关于他是否符合资格的最终裁决。

审查委员会审查他信的案件，此前有报道指出，有人对腐败案件的排除提出异议。

该申请目前正在由司法部常务秘书皮亚西里·瓦塔纳瓦朗昆担任主席的审查小组委员会进行审查。审查结果随后将提交促进和平社会委员会全体会议审议。

该委员会由副总理帕空·尼尔普拉蓬担任主席。根据相关法律，委员会的初始工作期限为180天，并允许延期。然而，提交申请并不保证一定能获得特赦。

周日，当地媒体报道称，委员会内部也出现了担忧，事态进一步发展。报道称，一名委员会成员曾非正式地向总理阿努廷表达了对塔信参选资格的异议。

据报道，该委员认为这四起案件均不符合特赦条件。反对意见主要集中在这些案件与腐败和渎职行为有关，而这些行为涉及公职人员的行使。

报告还提及了该法第7条，该条主要旨在保护政治示威参与者。按照这种解释，他信之前的案件将不在保护范围之内。

报告还指出了资产没收程序中存在的法律障碍。然而，报告中提及的沟通属于非正式沟通，并非正式裁决委员会的组成。目前尚未公布最终裁决。

委员会的反对呼应了阿披实的警告，总理正在为部长们准备 12 月的信心辩论

值得注意的是，报道中的反对意见与阿披实公开提出的法律问题非常吻合。两者都涉及该立法是否能够涵盖前总理在任期间的行为。

这个问题与议会讨价还价的指控无关。即便没有任何政治协议，他信的申请也必须符合相关法律规定的资格要求。因此，委员会的法律审查仍然是这场争议的核心。

另一方面，阿努廷总理否认了有关其政府意图逃避议会审查的说法。他在10月31日发表讲话时坚称，部长们已准备好在不信任投票辩论中回答问题。

阿努廷还透露，他此前已指示内阁成员在预期举行的会议期间不要出行。然而，由于日程安排上的分歧，辩论未能更早举行。

总理强调，政府事务和国家利益必须优先于政治对抗。他还对政府的稳定性表示信心。辩论预计将于12月7日至11日举行。

据报道，特赦安排具体涉及议会在相关程序中对阿努廷和18名政府官员的支持。然而，目前尚无确凿证据表明阿努廷同意影响他信的申请。

没有证据表明存在秘密特赦协议，反对派正准备挑战阿努廷政府。

目前尚未证实政府部长、为泰党议员或特赦委员会成员之间达成任何协议。尽管此事备受关注，但所谓的交易仍未得到证实。然而，为泰党的74名议员代表着议会中一个重要的政治力量。

他们的投票可能会影响政府在信任投票中的支持率。然而，朱拉蓬坚称，联盟伙伴之间的合作无需任何额外安排。

此外，有关塔玛纳特和克拉塔姆的报道并未证实他们参与了谈判。反对派仍坚持推进议会审查。

朗西曼明确指出，参议院选举舞弊指控需要进行调查。纳塔蓬否认干预大赦程序。阿披实承诺，如果证实存在不当行为，将展开调查。然而，这些声明均未证实所谓的政治协议存在。

据报道，他信本人并未否认此事，而为泰党则否认存在特赦协议。

另一个悬而未决的问题是塔信本人对这些报道的回应。截至11月2日星期一上午，现有报道尚未显示这位前总理公开直接否认这些报道。

他的党魁断然否认了这些指控。然而，他信本人并未就报道中的议会协议发表任何评论。他的律师解释了寻求特赦的法律依据，但这些解释是在最新指控出现之前作出的。

目前也没有确凿证据表明他信故意拒绝回答有关报道的问题。没有报道称他信本人否认此事，并不代表双方达成了任何协议。尽管如此，二者之间的区别依然很明确。

为泰党否认了这一指控，而他信本人的回应尚未公开。与此同时，委员会对他的申请进行审查，这是目前唯一已确认的关于他参选资格的正式程序。

阿披实介入此事，对委员会成员的行为提出了警告。他明确表示，如果出现不当行为的证据，民主党将对此展开调查。

大赦裁决仍悬而未决，反对派继续推进对阿努廷联合政府的审查。

纳塔蓬坚持认为，应根据法律依据来审议他信的申请。朗西曼质疑传言的可靠性，同时确认反对派的审查工作将继续进行。朱拉蓬否认了谈判的存在，并坚称政府依然稳定。

阿努廷则坚称，他的部长们已为12月的议会对抗做好准备。眼下的法律问题仍然是，他信之前的四起案件是否符合《和平社会促进法》的规定。

审查小组委员会必须先审查申请，全体委员会才能审议其审查结果。与此同时，政府面临着预期的不信任投票，反对党议员准备对其执政记录提出质疑。

据称这两个过程之间存在关联，但这一说法尚未得到证实。官方尚未宣布赦免他信的决定。同样，也没有任何经核实的协议涉及为泰党的议会投票。

目前，他信的申请仍在审查中，而阿披实警告称，任何不当干预都将受到民主党的审查。此外，在反对派持续监督和为泰党断然否认存在政治交易的情况下，政府还面临着12月的信任投票。

他信时代的一位部长回顾了泰国2006年的政变，并呼吁建立一个真正以人民为中心的民主制度。

泰国国立法政大学法学学者、1992年抗议活动领导人警告称，不能排除再次发生政变的可能性。

未来几周，由于参议院串谋阴谋案引发宪法法院诉讼，政府岌岌可危。

司法部长因涉嫌参与特别调查局 (DSI) 扩大的参议院刑事调查而被停职。

令人震惊的真实证据表明，参议院选举存在大规模串谋活动。1200人正在接受DSI的调查。

参议员呼吁议员暂停职务，担忧决策受到干扰。稍后将传唤146名参议员。
