Amarat Chokepamitkul, a list-MP of the opposition Move Forward Party (MFP), is expected to meet investigators from Nang Loeng police on Tuesday in a defamation case brought against her by the government.
In a complaint lodged with Nang Loeng police by Aphiwat Khanthong who is a member of the government's team monitoring information spread on social media against the PM and other cabinet ministers, Ms Amarat is accused of defaming Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha in a tweeted message, said the source.
Tweeted on her own Twitter account on May 8, last year, Ms Amarat's message portrayed the PM as a "thieving PM" who provided protection to a drug mule.
