BANGKOK: Thailand's Constitutional Court met Wednesday (Aug 14) to decide whether Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin should be kicked out of office in an ethics case that could plunge the kingdom into fresh political turmoil.
Srettha is accused of breaching ethics rules by appointing a lawyer with a criminal conviction to his cabinet, by a group of former senators seeking his removal from office.
