House, “Seththa” the Prime Minister reveals that he still does not know the case of Chada’s grandchild being arrested, confident that there is a mechanism according to the law. I believe there is no privilege.

Mr. Settha Thavisin, Prime Minister, spoke about the case where officials arrested Mr. Naraset Thaiseth, nephew of Mr. Chada Thaiseth, Deputy Minister of Interior. In the middle of a hotel in the Huai Khwang area, they were ready to seize drugs and firearms including ammunition. They said they still did not know about this matter and that Mr. Chada was on a mission to perform the Hajj ceremony and was on leave from the Cabinet meeting.

As for this matter, it is a serious case. There are both drugs and firearms. There must be coordination and discussion with the authorities. As to whether Pol. Gen. Kittirat Panphet is acting National Police Commissioner or not, the Prime Minister said he doesn’t really know the matter yet. But I personally think that there is already a legal mechanism. Then coordinate
according to the steps. I believe that I do not have any privileges.
