Thailand's top court says ex-PM Thaksin Shinawatra must serve a year in prison
Thailand’s Supreme Court has ruled that former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra must serve one year in prison, in a watershed case for the kingdom.The court issued its ruling on Tuesday in a review of whether Thaksin’s stay in the private room of a police hospital from 2023 to early 2024 counted as time served towards an earlier prison sentence.
Thaksin, 76, was sentenced to eight years’ imprisonment in 2023 for fraud and abuse of power following his surprise return to Thailand after 15 years in exile.
His sentence was commuted to one year by the king, and he was later released early due to his age.
Despite the seriousness of the charges, the former premier never spent a day in prison and instead remained in the hospital due to health concerns.
