The order also transferred a public prosecutor and deputy public prosecutor from Na Thawi district in Songkhla to the Office of the AttorneyGeneral.
Prayut also moved 17 police both in Bangkok and other provinces, whose ranks range from police major to major-general, to inactive posts at the Royal Thai Police. The police officers included those from Songkhla's Sadao district.
A source from the Anti-Corruption Operation Centre said it had given the PM a list of 23 government officials and asked him to exercise his absolute power provided by Article 44 of the Interim Charter to transfer them over allegations of corruption and negligence.
