Sondhi's son: Leave my dad alone
13 Sept 12:21Key points summarised by AI
Sondhi Limthongkul's son, Jittanart, vehemently defended his father against red-shirt leaders' claims of shifting political allegiance post-imprisonment, urging them to "leave him alone."
Jittanart clarified that red-shirt leader Jatuporn Prompan's jail visit involved only Prompan speaking, refuting any implication of Sondhi's agreement or political alignment with the red shirts.
The day also featured other political skirmishes, with Suthep Thaugsuban warning against constitutional amendments and Thaksin's son, Panthongtae, accusing detractors of conspiring against his family.
Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwan encountered mixed public reception in Buriram, dismissing loud noises as a welcome despite critics and social media interpreting them as boos reflecting his unpopularity.
