Thai justice sector / Bangladesh High Court / Pakistan anti-corruption drive

Vicha proposes justice revamp.  Thailand’s “[graftbuster] Vicha Mahakun has made recommendations for a revamp of the justice system after his review of the hit-and-run case involving the Red Bull scion…The recommendations contained observations that police probes lack independence and are prone to graft, while evidence can be tampered with and facts can be distorted.”

Corrupt judges must be removed to keep judiciary free of graft: HC.  “The [Bangladesh] High Court in a full text of a verdict has observed that corrupt judges must be immediately removed in order to keep all other judges of the judiciary free from graft.
