Thawee Presents Evidence to Implicate 'Masterminds' in Kamalsakdi Murder Case; Police Abandon Neutrality and Issue Arrest Warrants as Concerns Grow Over 'Cover-Up' Attempts Involving Montri and Decho

A Thai Nation Party legal team presented evidence implicating additional suspects in the Kamalsakdi murder case, with party leader Thawee Sodsong urging police to issue arrest warrants for two individuals while warning of potential cover-up

Thawee Presents Evidence to Implicate 'Masterminds' in Kamalsakdi Murder Case; Police Abandon Neutrality and Issue Arrest Warrants as Concerns Grow Over 'Cover-Up' Attempts Involving Montri and Decho

The Thai Nation Party intensifies its push as Pol. Lt. Col. Thawee Sodsong, party leader, heads a legal team to unravel the murder case of Kamalsakdi Liwamaung. The victim himself fears a potential 'cover-up' that would confine the investigation to only the first five suspects, exposing how critical documents have gone missing to an independent investigation unit instead of remaining with police investigators. He is pressing authorities to urgently extract data from 10 phone numbers before they are automatically erased under PDPA rules within three months, insisting the evidence against Montri and Decho is solid enough to issue arrest warrants immediately.

On May 1, 2025, Pol. Lt. Col. Thawee Sodsong, the Thai Nation Party chairman, along with his legal team, attended a meeting to review the case progress. Kamalsakdi Liwamaung participated as the injured party, summarizing new evidence that could potentially link to the "masterminds." Kamalsakdi revealed to the press that after filing additional complaints against two more individuals—Montri and Decho—on charges of "conspiring, hiring, or supporting an assassination attempt," similar to the initial five suspects, he is confident the evidence gathered by his party is weighty enough for police to immediately issue arrest or summons warrants.

"From our perspective, Montri's conduct is clearly not just supportive—the car loans, the film surveillance, and the use of fake license plates are all sufficient grounds for charges. But why are investigators delaying? In three-province cases previously, charges were filed based solely on questioning in special courts, yet this case seems to operate by different standards," Kamalsakdi stated.

The most concerning issue involves telephone communication records. Kamalsakdi indicated he requested additional investigation on seven points, particularly 10 phone numbers involved in the case, only to encounter legal obstacles related to PDPA restrictions and deliberate delays.

"We asked investigators where the communication documents are, and they said they're with the independent investigation unit, not with the police investigators. What does that mean? Telecom companies only keep phone records for three months before automatically deleting them. The longer we wait, the more evidence disappears. Is this an attempt to wrap things up at just the first five suspects as the media has suggested?"

Kamalsakdi openly acknowledged his concerns about "justice," noting he received information that certain officials handling the case harbor personal prejudices against him. However, over the past 2-3 days, the Chulachomklao Camp commander met with him to clarify and confirm that if any personnel in involved agencies show bias, full legal action would be taken, as such conduct is personal misconduct, not organizational policy.

In closing remarks, Kamalsakdi sent a strong signal to state authorities that this case is not a personal matter, but one being watched by people across the three provinces and parts of Songkhla.

"Don't protect certain individuals at the expense of the majority's problems. Don't fuel conflict through dual-standard justice. If the justice process is compromised, society will immediately view it as a reflection of institutional failure, creating a new condition in the region that will make community work even harder for the next hundred years," Kamalsakdi concluded.
