Army chief Chalermchai Sitthisart has said several vehicles were involved in the disappearance of former prime minister Yingluck Shinawatra and authorities need to examine CCTV footage as part of the investigation.
He insisted there had been progress in the investigation.
The army chief said there is no clear evidence confirming that Yingluck fled the country, although the investigation is progressing based on that assumption
He declined to confirm that authorities had assisted her to disappear.
On August 25, Yingluck failed to show up at the Supreme Court’s Criminal Division for Political Office Holders to hear the verdict in her dereliction of duty case in connection to her then government’s rice-pledging scheme.
She was last seen in public on August 23, with video footage released to the public showing several vehicles driving in and out of her residence before she disappeared.
