Thai court suspends Prime Minister from duty

Tavsif:

Thai Constitutional Court suspended Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra from duty pending a dismissal case, citing accusations of dishonesty and breach of ethical standards. The decision followed a leaked phone call with Cambodia’s former leader Hun Sen, which added pressure to a government already facing a no‑confidence vote and economic challenges. Deputy Prime Minister Suriya Juangroongruangkit will serve as caretaker while the case proceeds.
