Thailand’s court sacks PM Paetongtarn Shinawatra for ethics violation

The Constitutional Court of Thailand has sacked Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra after finding her guilty of violating ethics in a phone call with Cambodian politician Hun Sen earlier this year.

The Constitutional Court of Thailand on Friday sacked Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra for ethics violation.

The court sacked Paetongtarn after finding her guilty of an ethics violation in a phone call with Cambodian politician Hun Sen. In their leaked conversation, she appeared to kowtow the former Cambodian leader.

Paetongtarn has become the sixth member from or backed by Thailand’s powerful Shinawatra family to be removed as the prime minister either by the military or the judiciary in the past two decades in a power struggle in the country’s elites.
