In this file photo taken on August 17, 2022, Thailand's Prime Minister Prayut Chan-O-Cha addresses an award function in Bangkok. - AFPPIX: Thailand’s Constitutional Court said Wednesday it will rule on September 30 whether suspended prime minister Prayut Chan-O-Cha should be thrown out of office permanently.

Under the 2017 Thai constitution, a prime minister cannot serve more than eight years in office, but there are question marks over when Prayut’s term began.“The Constitutional Court deliberates that the case is a legal issue and there is sufficient evidence to rule,“ the statement said. Prayut launched the coup that ousted Yingluck Shinawatra’s democratically elected government, and led a junta regime before retaining the prime ministerial post after elections in 2019.

If the court agrees, Prayut could technically continue to serve until 2025 or 2027 -- if he wins a general election due by March.
