Bangkok Post
The government has rejected an offer from former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra to ask the Cambodian government to ensure a Thai engineer arrested for spying is fairly treated by the courts.
The offer was conveyed by lawyer Noppadon Pattama, a close Thaksin associate. He said had talked the matter over with his boss, who said he was ready to help if asked by the Thai government.
He said Thaksin could not be seen as trying to meddle in Cambodia's justice system and internal affairs, but was willing to ask Cambodia to ensure that the suspect, Siwarak Chothpong 31, is fairly treated by the courts and that his relatives be allowed to visit him.
