BANGKOK — Thai land's Constitutional Court sacked Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin on Wednesday, branding him dishonest in a ruling in an ethics case that throws the Southeast Asian kingdom into fresh political turmoil.The judges ruled 5-4 that Srettha breached regulations by appointing a Cabinet minister with a criminal conviction.The ruling comes a week after the same court dissolved the main opposition Move Forward Party and banned its former leader from politics for 10 years.
Writing on the Thai Enquirer news site, political analyst Ken Mathis Lohatepanont said the Pheu Thai-led coalition would 'almost certainly hold on.' He said the top government post was likely 'Paetongtarn's to have, if she wants it,' but otherwise it could go to Anutin Charnvirakul, head of the Bhumjaithai party, which is part of the coalition.
