The Police General Hospital should provide former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra's medical records to the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC), as requested, said Justice Minister Tawee Sodsong.

This follows demands from anti-Thaksin groups for the release of records to confirm Thaksin's claimed illness while detained at the hospital.

Tawee emphasized that relevant agencies must provide the information if requested, noting that the Department of Corrections is cooperating when evidence is needed. He also said that when Thaksin entered the country, medical records from abroad were provided, confirming his illness.

When asked if the hospital had sent the records to the Ministry of Justice, Tawee said they had after the 120-day treatment period. He added that the hospital should cooperate with the NACC, now that an inquiry is open, even if legal aspects are still being reviewed.

On patient rights, Tawee said it depends on the law, but if everything is done legally, the records should be sent to the NACC for review.
