Thailand's Constitutional Court announced on Wednesday to temporarily suspend the premiership of Prime Minister (PM) Prayut Chan-o-cha.
Judges agreed by five votes to four to suspend Prayut from office, effective on Aug. 24, 2022, pending the court's verdict, the court said in a statement on its website.
The court's statement came following a petition filed by the opposition parties for a ruling on when Prayut's eight-year tenure should conclude, which they believed should have ended and demanded Prayut to step down.
Born in 1954, Prayut was selected as the interim prime minister after a 2014 coup and was later royally endorsed
