Paetongtarn Shinawatra says she has yet to see any document requesting a pardon.
Thailand’s former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra was taken to hospital on his first night in prison after his historic return.
BANGKOK: The daughter of Thailand’s jailed former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra on Tuesday said she had yet to see any document requesting a royal pardon for her father, adding such a process takes time and was “up to him”. Paetongtarn Shinawatra, a senior member of the Pheu Thai Party leading the incoming government, did not explicitly confirm a request would be made for clemency for her father, who returned from self-exile last week and is serving eight years for abuse of power and conflicts of interest.Subscribe to our newsletter and get news delivered to your mailbox.
