Prisoners in Thai jails (including the one Thaksin was in) are not shackled and are provided with toilets (and showers), not holes in the ground.

not sure if it is still practiced but some inmates used to get shackled for the first month or something.

Maybe that used to be the case many years ago (they also used to execute prisoners by shooting in the heart through the back on a wooden X-frame!). No prisoners, these days, are shackled in normal circumstances in Thai prisons unless they are being punished for severe prison rules violations.  Sometimes, depending on the circumstances, shackles may be used for inmates being taken out of prison for court appearances, if that cannot be done by video.

Do they actually believe that anyone is fooled by this charade?

 

You need to be practically on death's door to spend the amount of time in hospital that he has.

 

And we'll all be amazed when he makes a full recovery on the day of his parole!
