Jatuporn insists govt plan to kill Thaksin


Pheu Thai MP Jatuporn Prompan alleged Wednesday the government for hatching a secret plan to "get rid of" fugitive ex-premier Thaksin Shinawatra.

And he disclosed for the second time the classified memorandum prepared by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to back up his allegation.

Repeating his last week's claim, Jatuporn said the memorandum on Thai-Cambodian ties, classified as secret and sent from Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya to Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva, was purportedly the plot to assassinate Thaksin.

The term "get rid of" is a code word for killing, he said, claiming such code word is commonly understood by the MFA officials.

At the Wednesday's press conference, he focused on his critique of the five-page annex to the four-page memorandum which he discussed last week.

The annex outlined measures with varying intensity to respond to the prime minister of Cambodia, he said. Among the 18 measures included the ban for Thai citizens to visit Cambodian casinos, the cancellation of the extradition treaty, the reinforcement of troops along the borders, and the cancellation of the memorandum of understanding on maritime boundaries.

He said the pros and cons analysis by the MFA shed light on the dilemma regarding the MOUs signed with Cambodia.
