The Constitutional Court has found Prime Minister Srettha Thavisin guilty of a gross violation of ethics for appointing ex-convict Pichit Chuenban as a cabinet minister. The ruling resulted in Mr Srettha being dismissed after less than a year in office.
The ruling on Wednesday also terminates all positions in the cabinet, but ministers will stay on in a caretaker capacity. The House of Representatives will vote on a new PM on Friday.
