Thaksin still in UAE : police spokesman
The Royal Thai Police has asked the cooperation of the International Criminal Police Organisation (Interpol) to arrest fugitive ex-premier Thaksin Shinawatra who is believed to remain in his hideaway inside the United Arab Emirates.
"From the latest check, there is no record to confirm that Thaksin has left the UAE," police spokesman Lt General Watcharaphol Prasanratchakit said.
Watcharaphol said police have already contacted the Interpol counterpart in the UAE to idetify Thaksin's whereabouts and arrest him.
He also confirmed that the police review was close to complete for the recommendation to strip Thaksin's police rank of Lt Colonel since he was a criminal convict for conflict of interest.
