Thaksin spotted in Malaysia: report


Fugitive former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra reportedly visited Malaysia last weekend before leaving for Fiji, Deputy Interior Minister Thaworn Senneam said yesterday.

Thaworn said he understood Thaksin went to Malaysia on Saturday and left on Sunday. However, his reasons for visiting Malaysia are unknown, and Thaworn admitted the report was unconfirmed. Police are verifying it.
Thaksin left Malaysia before Thai police could take action, Thaworn said. It remains the responsibility of the police, the attorney-general and the Foreign Ministry to get Thaksin back to serve the convictions against him, he said.
The deputy interior minister said the government was not worried by reports Thaksin was back in Thailand's neighbourhood.
