Puea Thai: Gen 'P' planning a coup

A senior army general whose his name starts with the letter “P†is planning a military coup to spare the Democrat Party from dissolution, Puea Thai spokesman Prompong Nopparit said on Wednesday.

 

The coup would also enable the general’s subordinates who used force against the red-shirt protesters on Saturday to avoid punishment, Mr Prompong claimed.

 

“If the general succeeds in staging the coup, the 2007 constitution will be revoked and the Democrat Party will escape punishment,†the Puea Thai spokesman said.

 

Mr Prompong claimed the army general in question was now busy verifying the number of commanders who would support him. Several commanders were opposed to another coup, saying it is not a solution to political problems, he said.

 

He warned that if the general tries to stage a coup, there would be more clashes, more violent than Saturday's incident.

 

The people would come out and fight the coup-makers. A civil war was likely, he said.
