Police to arrest 2 more in plot to kill privy councillor


The Criminal Court has approved two warrants of arrest for two more suspects linked to the assassination plot against privy councillor Chanchai Likitjittha, police said on Thursday.

The two warrants were issued for Commodore Chakkrit Sekhanan, who is also known as Se Por and a Navy officer suspected for contracting to kill Chanchai, and a man Jack or Chart (last name unknown) who was the driver for Major Thienchai Mueangchantuek, one of three suspects already in police's custody.

Chakkrit was previously believed to be the Army colonel but turned out to serve in the Navy.

He used to serve in the Armed Forces Security Centre as one of the guards for VIP-protection.

Red-shirt rally co-organiser Jakrapob Penkair claimed that Chakkrit was once one of the security details for Privy Council president General Prem Tinsulanonda.
