Thailand, Nov 20, 2008 - People Power Party MP Pracha Prasopdee on Thursday hinted that either former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra or his ex-wife Khunying Pojaman might return from exile on or before December 25.
"Just carefully monitor Thaksin's phone-in on December 13 and see what will happen on December 25 when someone is supposed to arrive by a THAI flight from Hong Kong to Suvanabhumi Airport at 9.45 am," he said.
Pracha said Thaksin's opponents should respect the justice system, otherwise the situation might trigger bloodshed.
If Thaksin returns, the authorities are obligated to arrest and send him to jail but before doing that, they should take precautions because a large number of supporters will turn up to rally behind him, he said.
He said he saw no reason why Thaksin would not be willing to serve his jail term.
If the country is to overcome its political predicament, all sides should support the passage of a legislation granting amnesty to rival camps, he said, arguing that the draft legislation should be on a fast track for debate at the next House session in January.
The amnesty would allow a fresh start
