<\/p>\n

The Constitutional Court has today (Wednesday) unanimously agreed to take into consideration the iTV shareholding case of the leader of the Move Forward party, Pita Limjaroenrat, and, by a majority decision, has ordered him to stop exercising his functions as deputy immediately.<\/p>\n

Pita remains in the Parliament room because the Court’s order did not affect his candidacy for the presidency.<\/p>\n

Serial petitioner Ruangkrai Leekitwattana filed a petition for the Charter Court to rule on Pita’s parliamentary status, accusing him of owning 42,000 shares in iTV, a media company, when he registered his election candidacy , which is a violation of the charter.<\/p>\n

The Constitutional Court has ruled that the accusation is well-founded, adding that Pita has the right to reject the accusation within 15 days.<\/p>\n

On the request to order Pita to stop performing his parliamentary duties, the Constitutional Court ruled 7-2 to order him to stop doing so immediately.<\/p>\n
