Prime Minister Prayut Chanocha will proceed to strip Thaksin Shinawatra of his police rank.
He said on Tuesday he had already received the proposal to strip the 66yearold fugitive former
prime minister of his lieutenant colonel rank.
"I'll sign it myself. There's no need to bring the issue to the cabinet. It will then be sent to His Majesty
the King for approval," Gen Prayut said
