BANGKOK: -- Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwan said on Friday surveillance cameras recorded a car travelling past a military checkpoint in eastern Sa Kaeo province that might have been carrying former premier Yingluck Shinawatra as she fled the country.


He called it the first “solid evidence” to emerge from a two-week investigation of Yingluck taking the easterly route.

 

Prawit said the CCTV cameras could track the vehicle’s movement no further, so there was no evidence that it crossed the border into Cambodia. 

 

Officials are trying to track down the car’s driver for interrogation, he said. 

 

Prawit said Yingluck could have taken any of several other routes through the area and they too were being scrutinised.

Hmmm....

 

Didn't we all see a story here a few days ago claiming that the investigation was 80% complete?

 

Double Hmmm...

She wasn't hiding in the trunk and passing military checkpoints, sneaking around like a thief in the night. It doesn't fit with these big face hi-sos. She will have travelled with full permission from a senior junta boy, and with the full convoy of outriders and security. Give me the cctv tapes if they didn't notice a 10 car convoy with wailing blues and 2's heading for Poipet.

The route she took out of Thailand certainly is interesting, because it may shed light on who helped her disappear.

 

But more pertinent is where she is NOW, and that almost certainly is not Cambodia.

 

Of course, it's entertaining to focus on how to she out as opposed to how to get her back from wherever she is now -- which clearly isn't going to happen.

I'm sure there are some unusually wealthy border immigration officers, long in the employ of big brother Thaksin, who know exactly how she fled Thailand to Cambodia.

Oh, golly - gosh, whatever next? Prawit would seem to be saying "I'm definitely not 'over it', even if you are, boss . . . "

I could have sworn that, at Wednesday's press meeting, P1 said 'I'm over it, why don't you get over it and stop asking pointless Q's' . . . not necessarily exactly his words, but the message is clear. Evidently P2 wants 'it' to run and run, maybe thinking - or hoping or praying - that, when he's done 'scrutinising' - fabulous word! - the several other routes and discovered who was driving the car that had the audacity to travel past a military checkpoint, he'll come up trumps.

 

What a great double act they are - to be continued next week, after a weekend's well-earned rest and recuperation  :post-4641-1156694572:  :post-4641-1156694572:

Then we should hear about them being detained at any moment now.

Prawit: Vehicle assisting Yingluck’s escape last seen near the border

By Thai PBS

The vehicle which was believed to take ex-premier Yingluck Shinawatra out of her home in Bangkok was seen near the Thai-Cambodian border in Sa Kaeo province, Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwon said on Friday (Sept 8).

 

According to him, the suspicious sedan was captured by CCTV camera near a military checkpoint on a local road leading to the Thai-Cambodian border in Sa Kaeo province.

 

However, the sedan did not make through the borderline as surveillance cameras installed at the checkpoint could not capture the vehicle, Gen Prawit said.

The junta has either taken acting lessons or they truly have no idea where she is.  What they are printing is garbage.  A pick up truck going to the border ?  That is all as they just said their investigation, as mentioned before, is 80% done.  They should stop talking until they know something, but that is not how things are done in Thailand.

A Benz was also mentioned.
