bangkokrick Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 TAN Network: Metro police confirm suspicions of assassination plot; 5-6 suspected groups kept under close watch; 400 patrol teams watching reds Just got this from updates Will, but no more info. If this is true maybe its why the 3 leaders wanted to break away from others in the red shirt camp? Cheers, Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiksilva Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 (edited) http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/index.php?s=...t&p=3424042 This post carries the most information I have seen anywhere. (edit yes its the same as above) If this is the base of the sms alert, then I must say that whoever is responsible for calling a "plot" an "attempt" is being overly alarmist, the difference is considerable!

If the rumor is true and they knew about it then they are also guilty of the crime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britmaveric Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Sounds like a rumor I think Abhisit is paranoid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotlost Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I really do not see any difference between The Nation or Thai Visa on their reporting that in itself should tell us something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garry9999 Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Minister Confirms Reports on Plot to Kill PM UPDATE : 17 March 2010 The Prime Minister's Office minister admits there have been reports on a plot to assassinate the premier. Prime Minister Office's Minister Sathit Wong-nongtoey said he has received reports on planned assassination of the prime minister but he is still unsure which party has engineered the plot. Commenting on the red-shirt group's splattering of blood at the prime minister's residence, Sathit said such a move was not appropriate and he noted the group was running its campaign without a certain direction. . Sathit insisted the prime minister still has no policy to crack down on the demonstration or take legal action against the group's core leaders. Sathit also revealed the national peacekeeping center was worried about the red-shirt protesters' current directionless moves without good coordination by their leaders. The minister also said the society will not support the claim by fugitive former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra that the red-shirt protest is a class struggle. He reiterated the the Internal Security Act is still sufficient to contain the rally while the government will exercise restraint Sathit today accepted an open letter from the Nonviolence Network and media representatives calling for a wide exchange of the viewpoints to seek a solution for political crisis and the way to have a fair election. He assured them the government will not use force in handling the protesters as they are not its enemies but it will seek viewpoints on the political crisis through parliamentary means. He pledged to forward their demands and advises to the prime minister. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prefabs Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Sounds like a rumor I think Abhisit is paranoid. Brit talking shit as usual. No evidence to back up his medical assessment of Abhisit. And we all remember the "bomb plot" against Thaksin. Pure invention all round Paranoia might well sum up your michief making posts BM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britmaveric Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Yes as you said invention works both ways and I am sure Abhisit is just as paranoid as Khun T. Hence the sleeping in the Army HQ for Abhisit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowhereman60 Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 A plot to assassinate a country leader happens very often, this is more misinformation being put out by the government. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
