Thailand's most famous politician made a dramatic homecoming last month, 15 years after he entered self-exile, having been ousted by a military coup in 2006. While abroad, Thaksin was found guilty in absentia in three cases involving abuse of power, conflict of interest and malfeasance.
Parties aligned with Thaksin have won every election since 2001 up until this year's poll when the Pheu Thai, the party backed by his family, came second. There was speculation that Thaksin reached some deal with his old foes, after the pro-military parties gave the Pheu Thai candidate Srettha their backing to form a new government.On his first night in Thailand, Thaksin was transferred to a police hospital with chest pains and high blood pressure where is currently being treated.
"After serving six months of his sentence, Thaksin will be eligible for parole for prisoners older than 70 or those who are ill," Corrections Department Deputy Director General Sitthi Sutivong, told Reuters.
