Justice Minister General Rutthapol Naovaratna addressed the detention of Chalerm Riewrang, a former Nonthaburi MP accused of shooting the Nonthaburi Provincial Administration Organization chief, stating that his placement at Nonthaburi Prison followed standard procedures and control protocols with no special measures. When asked whether special care was needed because he is a politician, the Justice Minister said there was nothing exceptional about the case, as prison officials already have their own care management system in place. He noted that no special instructions were issued within the prison, as internal procedures require staff to care for all detainees uniformly, a system the facility has followed for years.
