It simply won`t happen. I personally believe this is a red herring, Yingluck probably made well laid plans with her supporters long ago, she knows exactly what`s she`s doing. I do agree with the report that it`s very convenient for the Thai government to have Yingluck well off the scene and why I`d bet my last penny she`ll never be caught and never be seen in Thailand again, exactly like her brother. Time will tell sunshine as the UK has done so on many occasions before, one I can think of right now was that young lady Rose and Thai would love to get their hands on Andrew MacGregor Marshall along with Giles Ji Ungpakorn and a few more and guess what it will never happen because all are considered Political, Just like the lovely Yingluck. But I agree I do not think she is even there as there is nothing in the UK press about it and they have bloodhound press there. Maybe it the dear one ought to send some of his spies to the UK to check it out, it would give MI5 and 6 a good laugh at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The poms are slightly more civilised, educated and able to analyse Thai politics than the majority of Thais, including those running the country. No chance she will be extradited no matter how many times the junta asks and their rhetorical chest beating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justgrazing Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 1 hour ago, oldhippy said: It was recently in the news in Europe that the government of Cyprus hands out passports to anyone that invests 2,5 million euro in their country - that's only a meagre 100 million baht. Please note that these passports make the receiver a EU citizen.... Portugal does the same, but price unknown. The EU parliament is not pleased, but is of course powerless. Do European countries extradite EU citizens to Thailand? I don't think so! Absolutely correct which is why Cypress has been a bit of a bolthole for Crim's on the run and for whom money is no object especially since previously favoured destinations of exile like Spain aren't so accomodating these days .. Meanwhile Ying' was well happy with her new go anywhere passport .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely she was ousted by a court, two weeks before the coup eventually happened, and the PTP-led-coalition caretaker-government was then led by former caretaker-DPM/Commerce-Minister Niwatthamrong Boonsongpaisan from 7th-22nd May 2014, making him the legitimate leader ousted by the coup ?

Only applies if charges or convictions are for an offence that is recognised as a crime in both countries. Ill conceived and poorly administered her party's policy may have been, but she did not benefit directly from them. In the UK she would have had to face the electorate, but not criminal charges.

Can imagine Interpol is less than excited about tracking her down, given the nature of her crime by those who found her guilty, and then let her escape.

They were not prosecuted for no reason, they are not peaceful activist or ordinary civil servants that gave damning information or simply spoke out. Yingluck most likely already have another passport from another country like Thaksin, which will enable them to travel anywhere. Such as Thaksin who holds at least one diplomatic passport and total of no less than 6 foreign passports.

Thaksin did not request Political Asylum in the UK. His (and his then wife's) visas were revoked by the UK in 2008. That was an act by the then (Gordon Brown) government. He has been able to come and go freely ever since. We can only speculate whether or why Yingluck has or will opt to request asylum. The UK government doesn't comment. Personally, if she does make the request, I suspect it will be to ensure stability for her sons future. Edited September 30, 2017 by JAG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phantomfiddler Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 (edited) If she plays her cards right she could even become a future prime minister, at which point I assume she would sell the Houses of Parliament to a close relative to turn it into a hotel, all at around 1% of it,s actual value of course !

The coup plotting came right after she won the election in 2010. Your favourite politician said that himself. Then after he set up the scene with the Bangkok Shutdown and use provocateurs and paid mercenaries to intensify the situation. Up step the General declaring to Suthep that he must be tired and let the military take over. All documented and yet you date twist the facts. Desperate ain't you.
