The academic article aimed at bringing security into the criminal justice system should be explicitly legislated to protect human rights, including groups of people who have been recorded. Case: people are alleged offenders, suspended sentence offenders, prisoners who were purged depending on the act, and juvenile delinquents. Because the Constitution of the Kingdom of Thailand B.E. 2017 postulates a warranty for protecting human rights in the criminal justice system, One of the most important is the right to protection for offenders. Nowadays, Thailand only regulates offenders, data collection, and sorting data from a directory or criminal records database. Deletion or concealment is not included in the regulation mentioned earlier. This means that these kinds of people still have data in the criminal records database of the Royal Thai Police. Having a criminal record makes society stigmatize them as bad guys, and it also has some negative attitudes. This has an impact on a lack of education opportunities, career paths, or living a happy life in society.

Problems and Measures From Granting Witness Immunity of Law Enforcement Agencies

2023-12-11T13:21:20+07:00

Due to legal provisions in Thailand, some enactments grant authorities the power to take individuals as witnesses in various statutes, including the police regulations on cases
in Section 8, Chapter 7 of the National Police Office, Sections 257 and 258, and regulations of the Office of the Attorney General concerning the Criminal Proceedings of Public Prosecutors, B.E. 2563 (2020). These provisions dictate the taking of suspects as witnesses, as outlined
in Section 2, Chapter 10, Article 81, regarding taking a suspect as a witness, and Article 82, regarding the interrogation of a suspect issued a non-prosecution order as a witness. The legal provision empowers law enforcement officers to take individuals as witnesses in other special cases, as follows: the Anti-Participation in Transnational Organized Crime Act B.E. 2556 (2013), Section 23; The Organic Act on Anti-Corruption, B.E. 2561 (2018), regarding the prevention and suppression of corruption, Section 135; and the National Anti-Corruption Commission's Announcement on criteria, methods, and conditions for taking individuals as witnesses without initiating legal proceedings, B.E. 2561 (2018), Section 5; executive measures in the Anti-Corruption Act, B.E. 2551 (2008), Section 58; and the Announcement of the Public Sector Anti-Corruption Commission to prevent and suppress corruption in the public sector about criteria, methods, and conditions for excluding a person or the accused from being a witness without prosecution, B.E. 2560 (2017). This article has the objective of studying the problem of deprivation of persons as witnesses according to Thai legal concepts and theories regarding personal protection. As a witness and the criteria and procedures for revoking a person as a witness, it is recommended to enact measures for taking individuals as witnesses, explicitly stipulated within the Criminal Procedure Code, from Section 136/1 to Section 136/5. Additionally, supplementary regulations for other special cases should be included in the criminal procedural law, providing provisions for using such measures in various types of cases. However, this should be subject to the condition that there is no other available primary evidence to prosecute the offender, taking into consideration the criteria, conditions, and practices adopted by other countries.

An Analysis of Problems on the Origin of Written Laws: A Case Study of Thailand

2024-01-31T19:10:54+07:00

This academic article aims to study the legal status of the Revolutionary Council Announcement and the hierarchy of laws in Thailand. It found that there are many academic debates on the issue of legal status and hierarchy, including: 1. The issue of the legal status of the Revolutionary Council Declaration is considered complete law. It is accepted as a tool for controlling society because the revolutionary announcement used legal authority at many levels. It consists of repealing, changing, amending, and adding laws or enforcement parallel to existing laws so that the enforcement is in line with the intentions of the coup d'état. 2. Legal issues at the legal level are that the Organic Act is a law that expands the details of the Constitution. It has a legal hierarchy higher than or equal to the Act. The Constitution of the Kingdom of Thailand, B.E. 2560, stipulates more complex procedures for making constitutional acts than organic acts, and there should be a higher hierarchy than the General Act. 3. The legal status of a Royal Decree issued under the authority of the Constitution can have legal or hierarchical status as “law” (statutory law level). It must be a royal decree with a Constitutional Court decision because state court decisions are binding on all organizations.

2023-11-20T18:31:28+07:00

This article presents the results of research on the legal architecture or legal framework of contracts for professional athletes in the legal systems of Thailand, England, Germany, Spain, and Italy. The objectives of the study are threefold: 1. To examine the current situation and legal issues related to contracts for professional athletes in Thailand. 2. To compare the legal framework of contracts for professional athletes in Germany, England, Spain, Italy, and Thailand. And 3. To propose improvements and developments to the legal measures for contracts for professional athletes in Thailand. The research employs a qualitative research method, analyzing data from documents. The research reveals that England and Germany apply general labor laws to regulate contracts for professional athletes, while Spain, Italy, and Thailand use specific sports laws. In Thailand, contracts for professional athletes and sports personnel fall under the jurisdiction of the Promotion of Professional Sports Act of 2013 and the Regulations of the Professional Sports Committee on Standards for Hiring and Protection Measures of 2017. Furthermore, the study indicates that contractual relationships involving celebrity or superstar athletes and sports clubs tend to be more commercial than labor contracts. However, existing laws do not adequately address these commercial contracts, highlighting a lack of alignment with the evolving environment. Consequently, legal amendments are necessary to better suit the current landscape.

Lesson Learned from the M/V “Norstar” Case Between Panama and Italy on the Freedom of Navigation in High Sea

2023-10-04T11:40:42+07:00

This research aimed to study the M/V “Norstar” case between Panama and Italy. Moreover, a lesson learned from the Norstar case reflects a clear perspective on freedom of navigation on the high seas following the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, 1982. The results show that the Norstar case is a disputed case concerning the exercise of freedom of navigation on the high seas. Article 87(a) of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea 1982 sets forth that “the high sea is open to all states, whether coastal or land-locked. Freedom of navigation is exercised under the conditions laid down by this convention.” It can be seen that the legal basis is not clear for the example of the activity of freedom of navigation on the high seas. However, the Norstar case clarifies that it is the view of the exercise of freedom of navigation on high seas, including supplying gasoil activity on high seas. Furthermore, this issue helps to create a perspective for the private sector and leads to channels for making a business providing refueling service on the high seas. In addition, this case helps to create a practice in the government sector, especially, the navy. There may be policy communications within the army for patrolling on high seas. When they see the refueling service on the high seas, it is considered an action within the context of freedom of navigation on the high seas.
