Two doctors face suspension in Thaksin hospital case

A photo that circulated widely on social media purports to show former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra being taken from his room at the Police General Hospital in Bangkok to get a CT and MRI scan in October 2023.

The Medical Council of Thailand has said it plans to suspend two doctors and issue a warning to a third after concluding that former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra was not critically ill, which had been cited as the reason for him to serve his prison sentence in a hospital.

The plan will need approval from the public health minister.
