PM vows not to interfere in graft case against Thaksin

Samak said his political opponents were not necessary to warn him and his government not to interfere in legal proceedings against Thaksin.

"My government would not dare to intervene into the judicial process and will never do so,'' Samak said. "He will appear in court on March 12 on his own and fight the cases himself, the government will not be involved in his charges,'' Samak said in his weekly nationwide television and radio talk.

Some have accused Samak of acting in defence of Thaksin.
