The Election Commission has agreed to launch an inquiry to determine if Move Forward Party (MFP) leader Pita Limjaroenrat has violated Section 42(3) and Section 151 of the organic law on the election of MPs by applying as a list-MP candidate despite knowing he may not have been eligible to run for a House seat, a source said.
The EC's decision comes after the six commissioners decided unanimously not to accept complaints involving Mr Pita's alleged shareholding offence, the source said.
