The Supreme Court of Thailand dealt a serious blow to Tuesday Thaksin Shinawatra by sentencing the deposed prime minister to two years in jail for helping his wife in a shady land deal. A bizarre twist in these legal proceedings is that the court revoked an arrest warrant out for his wife. She is already facing 2-3 years in prison for her connection to another trial on corruption.
Doesn’t look like the pair will be spending Loi Krathong in Bangkok this year or any year soon.
Still not to worry, they are seeking asylum in the UK and we know how the British love criminals seeing how many of them are in Pattaya.
