Railway union files complaint
State Railway of Thailand (SRT) labour union yesterday filed a complaint with Auditor-General Khunying Jaruvan Maintaka accusing the father and wife of Newin Chidchob of encroaching on more than over 44 rai of SRT land in Buri Ram's Muang District.
SRT union leader Riangsak Kaengkan urged Jaruvan to take legal action against Chai Chidchob and Karuna Chidchob, father and wife respectively of the former PM's Office minister in the Thaksin government. He claimed that both Chai and Karuna illegally obtained the title deeds to the two plots. A Senate special committee and the Council of State had ruled that the land belonged to the SRT and could not be used by the private sector, but the SRT has not taken action against the two.
