Law Enforcement in Thailand
泰國執行法
Law enforcement is the activity of some members of government who act in an organized manner to enforce the law by discovering, deterring, rehabilitating, or punishing people who violate the rules and governing norms of that society. The primary duties of law enforcement includes the investigation, apprehension, and detention of individuals suspected of legal offenses. The purpose of law enforcement is to protect communities to hold individuals accountable and to ensure justice. In Thailand, Legal Execution Department was established as Civil Execution Division and the Bankruptcy Execution Division under the office of the permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Justice. In 1974, Thai government passed the Act to amend Declaration of the Revolutionary Council No. 216, which combined Civil Execution Division and Bankruptcy Execution Division into the Legal Execution Department under Ministry of Justice.
執行法規是一些政府成員的活動，他們以有組織的方式通過發現、阻止、改造或懲罰違反管理該社會的規則和規範的人來執行法律。法律執行的目的是保護社區、追究個人責任並確保正義。在泰國，司法部常務秘書辦公室下設法律執行部，分別為民事執行處和破產執行處。1974年，泰國政府通過修正革命委員會第216號宣言的法案，將民事執行處和破產執行處合併為司法部下屬的法律執行部。
