Shinawatra was released on parole from the Police General Hospital where he had been detained six-months of his one-year jail sentence and did not spend a single night behind bars for corruption and power abuse due to multiple illnesses. Shinawatra returned to Thailand in August 2023 from living in self-imposed exile after he was overthrown by a military coup on 19 September 2006. EPA/RUNGROJ YONGRIT
