A former Thai general, who was suspended in January and subsequently joined anti-government protesters, was seriously injured by an apparent sniper attack Thursday night. Khattiya Sawasdipol, who became a tactical leader for the “Red Shirts”, was shot with a high-powered rifle during an interview with journalists, according to the Bangkok Post.
He was taken to Hua Chiew Hospital, close to Chulalongkorn Hospital. Over 100 Red Shirts members were deployed around the building during his stay. He is reported to be critically wounded. A state of emergency has been put in place in Bangkok and surrounding areas.
One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble...
