Kasit unconcerned over airport closure case  
 
BANGKOK, 5 July 2009 (NNT) – Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya has expressed no concern over the police’s summons for questioning on his participation in the seizure of Suvarnabhumi International Airport last year.

Secretary to the Minister of Foreign Affairs Chavanond Intarakomalyasut informed that Mr Kasit had prepared his own lawyer to compile all witnesses and evidence for his elucidation with inquiry officials that he had attended the rally of the People’s Alliance for Democracy (PAD) as a guest speaker only. Mr Chavanond informed that the minister will appear for his summons to acknowledge all charges on 16 July 2009, but he might ask for an earlier date if he had to be away on a mission.

According to his secretary, Mr Kasit has already conferred with Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva, who deemed the issue as less of a problem. The Prime Minister also declared that the Foreign Minister was allowed to perform his duty as usual while the case was under the interrogation process.
