“But I’m strong, and you know that if I had no one by my side, I would become more aggressive and exercise my full power,” Prayut said. Prayut yesterday urged the media not to pressure Prawit over the allegations surrounding the accessories. Prayut said he was not giving moral support to the deputy prime minister, as Prawit was strong enough to handle the issue. According to the NACC, Prawit has not yet submitted a letter to clarify his possession of the items. Watcharapol once served as a deputy secretary-general to the prime minister attached to Prawit.
