The meeting at the MP's Bacho district residence included security officials and former Justice Ministry permanent secretary Kuhaeng Yaowahan, reflecting public concern over politician safety and rule of law in the Deep South.

Pol. Lt. Col. Thawi Sodsong followed up on the shooting case of MP Kamolsak Liwamo, which has reached 218 days without conclusion. On October 24, at MP Kamolsak's residence in Bacho district, Narathiwat province, Pol. Lt. Col. Thawi, in his capacity as party-list MP and Pheu Thai Party leader, met with former Justice Ministry Permanent Secretary Kuhaeng Yaowahan, security officials, and relevant agencies to review progress on the March 20 assassination attempt. Legal proceedings remain ongoing with no final court verdict, while locals watch closely for politician safety and law enforcement standards in bringing perpetrators to justice. The same day, at Jae Ka restaurant in Narathiwat town, Pol. Lt. Col. Thawi joined MP Kamolsak and a working group to hear views from officials, businesspeople, and residents on resolving southern unrest alongside improving quality of life and the border economy. This hands-on approach to the stalled shooting case and opening a southern problems forum underscores Pol. Lt. Col. Thawi's long-standing role in Deep South issues, challenging mainstream security approaches with a 'rule of law' framework and signaling that true peace remains distant while justice is delayed and border communities neglected.
