A former Thai pop singer and TV host says he fully intends to answer a royal defamation charge and will not flee, after a mix-up in which he received a summons to report to police six hours after the scheduled appointment.
Suthipongse “Heart” Thatphithakkul, 57, posted a video message together with a photo of the summons, issued on Jan 31, on his Facebook page on Friday evening. It asked him to come to the Nang Loeng police station before 10am on Friday to answer charges under Section 112 of the Criminal Code.
