Legal injustice

re: "Thousands of Muslims attend insurgent suspect's burial" (BP, August 26)


Dear editor,

Sadly, Thai law under various governments has proven itself so corrupt that it consistently aids and abets great evil done with the blessing of the law and law enforcement officers. This evil, the epitome of moral corruption, has occurred under both civil governments, such as Thaksin's drug wars and the Tak Bai killings under his watch, and of course under the brutal repetition of military killing of Thai citizens by coup leaders who overthrew the rule of law to replace it with their moral corruption written into law in Thai constitutions. The current Thai constitution is also carefully worded with apparent intent to deny basic human right to Thai citizens.

I wish those protesting for justice following the suspicious death of Abdulloh Esomusor subsequent to his interrogation by the Thai military the best, but Thai history suggests that injustice will more [likely] be served by Thai authorities acting in the name of the law.
