Warrant issued for Man City owner Thaksin
A court in Thailand issued arrest warrants today for former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra and his wife in connection with their alleged violations of stock-trading laws.
It is the second set of warrants issued in the past month against Manchester City owner Thaksin, who has been living abroad since he was ousted in a bloodless coup almost a year ago.
The other case involved conflict of interest in connection with the sale of Bangkok property.
Sunai Manomaiudom, director-general of the Department of Special Investigation, announced that Bangkok Criminal Court had issued the warrant at his agency’s request.
