Pornthip stays away from Teoh’s inquest due to ‘political pressure’

Dr Pornthip Rojanasunand, the Thai pathologist who was recently appointed to conduct the second autopsy on the late political aide Teoh Beng Hock will not be testifying at the inquest on his death and she will no longer be involved in the case. The inquest is expected to resume on April 20 and Dr Pornthip has reportedly said that she wants out of the case due to ‘political pressure’ from the Malaysian government. She told local news media Mkini that some high ranking officials from the Thai Justice Ministry had ‘advised’ her not to go to Malaysia for the inquest next week and if she does she might face some problems when entering the country. She is the director-general of the Central Institute of Forensic Science which is part of the Ministry.

She said “It was conveyed to me by certain senior Thai government officials that there has been political pressure from certain Malaysian government circles to block my presence in court, so much so that it might interfere with my current important forensic mission in southern Thailand. She was recently denied entry to Kelantan to investigate a case on the killing in Southern Thailand. She said “I was unable to do so after a 'signal' from the authorities forbidding me from crossing the Thai-Malaysian border. I have been committed to the forensic pathological science for a long time, and have always taken full responsibility for the missions that were assigned to me. It had been my intention to follow the inquest into the death of the late Teoh Beng Hock to the end. Given that our well-intended assistance in the Teoh case has now turned into a political issue, I have no choice but to choose my work in south Thailand. If I was not a civil servant, I might decide to see this through to the very end. But in reality, I have an obligation to follow the Thai government's instruction. From my experience, sometimes there is a limit as to how far we can go to bring about justice,”
