Former prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra has cried foul over the issuance of an arrest warrant because she failed to show up for a trial in which she is accused of ordering the transfer of a senior official to justify installing a close relative as national police chief while she was premier in 2011.
Yingluck tweeted her complaint, claiming she has been subjected to relentless mistreatment over the transfer of one official. She was referring to Thawil Pliensri, the former secretary-general of the National Security Council (NSC).
