Ekspremierminister bliver prøveløsladt i Bangkok
Thailands dømte ekspremierminister, Thaksin Shinawatra, er søndag blevet prøveløsladt, siger hans advokat ifølge nyhedsbureauet Reuters. Shinawatra blev i 2006 afsat ved et militærkup, og i august vendte han hjem fra 15 års eksil til en fængselsstraf på 8 år for korruption og magtmisbrug. Straffen blev sidste år sat ned til 1 år.
