Thai court says PM Srettha violated rules on ethics in cabinet appointment

BANGKOK (Reuters) – Thailand’s Constitutional Court on Wednesday said Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin had violated rules on ethics over his appointment to cabinet of a lawyer who served time in prison.

The judges were reading a verdict in a case seeking Srettha’s dismissal. They had yet to announce whether he would remain in office. He denies wrongdoing.
