Abhisit: Stripped of military rank in 2012It overturned last year's ruling by the Civil Court. Not aware that Mr Abhisit had dodged conscription, the Nakhon Nayok conscription officer issued him a Sor Dor 3 document, which registered Mr Abhisit as an army reservist. If that person has left military service, he or she should be unable to cause more damage. In this case, Mr Abhisit faced the disciplinary punishment 23 years after he left military service. Retroactively considering disciplinary action and enforcing it against Mr Abhisit is not legally binding, the court said.
