webfact Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Prawit rejects rumour of military helping Yingluck ‘flee’ By The Nation File photo: Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwan. BANGKOK: -- Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister Gen Prawit Wongsuwan spurned speculation on Friday that the military helped or allowed former prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra to leave the country. Speculation was rife that Yingluck might have fled after she failed to appear at the Supreme Court to hear the ruling in the rice-pledging case. It was also rumoured that the military might have had a role in her leaving the country. Prawit said government security agencies had been monitoring both Yingluck’s movements and the national borders. Officials watching Yingluck’s residence have not seen her leave home in two days, he said, while admitting that she could have evaded their notice by using any of several departure routes out of Thailand. Prawit said there was no clear indication as to which route she might use. He had heard unconfirmed reports that she entered Cambodia via Koh Chang, but he had nothing else to add since he’d been busy attending meetings. Prawit declined to comment on a report that a senior government official had helped Yingluck flee the country on Wednesday night. Prawit said if that information proved to be true, the official must be disciplined and face legal action. If the official were in the military, he’d be sacked immediately, Prawit added.

Samui Bodoh Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 (edited) With the country split down the middle politically, it is a safe bet that there is a split in the military as well. The idea that some in the military helped her escape isn't that far-fetched. Bon Voyage! Edited August 25, 2017 by Samui Bodoh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

champers Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 The pot is simmering in Thailand. Secret deals and behind the scenes plans are no doubt ongoing. Two months to wait and more will be revealed. Whatever transpires, let's hope it is bloodless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wakeupplease Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Koh Chang Ho Ho Ho Just P>>>ED ourselves laughing? Officials watching Yingluck’s residence have not seen her leave home in two days, he said, while admitting that she could have evaded their notice by using any of several departure routes out of Thailand. So watching the home 24/7 and she disappears, Houdini then. or incompetent special bib. They wanted her out of the country from May 2014 as they know she has the power of the people behind her, she stayed just to show these rats up for what they are scum. Now YL go have a rest you deserve it and start the fight back. If you need unlimited web hosting we know a company that will give you what you need and unlimited.

sjaak327 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Ok, so providing Prawit is telling the truth (a first I believe), this means the Junta is utterly incompetent. Well, I believe we already established that. Where oh where is our Dear Yingluck ? Go Girl, go :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
