Commission of Human Rights and Law-Abidance

Your Excellency
Nobphorn J. Karnkit
Royal Ambassador of Thailand to Poland
in Warsaw
Your Excellency
Last days I was informed about incidents, which had placed of passage border between Thailand and Laos in Vang Tao on 03, July, 2000, and about fact that 27 Laotian rebels were arrested by authorities of Thailand.
I would like to ask Your Ambassador for response if is it true, that Authorities of Thaland consider a possible for extradition those Laotain rebels to Laos?
I decided to write the letter to Your Ambassador, because minding of the national situation in Laos I am afraid of that if giving those rebels to Lao authorities means death for them.
I think that refusing the extradition those rebels to country, in which they will be under penalty of death , is one of more important standard of Human Rights.
As the Chairman of Senate Commission for Human Rights and Law-Abidance of Republic of Poland, I am very sentisive to using
death-penalty.
Yours very Sincerely
Chairman of Senate Commission for Human Rights and Law-Abidance
Senator Zbigniew Romaszewski
