Fugitive former Thai premier Yingluck Shinawatra fled to Dubai and may try to seek asylum in the UK.
Fugitive former Thai premier Yingluck Shinawatra fled to Dubai and may try to seek asylum in the UK, a junta source said on Saturday, after she ducked a legal ruling, wrong-footing the court and her supporters alike.
Ms Yingluck, 50, was due on Friday morning to arrive at the Supreme Court for the ruling in her trial for criminal negligence that could have seen her jailed for 10 years. But she did not show up.
