Ms Yingluck also stands accused of having a state-run television channel broadcast a boxing event in Macao that was presided over by her older brother Thaksin. NACC secretary-general Sansern Poljeak insisted the revelation of the 11 cases against Ms Yingluck was not a bullying tactic. A large compensation sum given by the Yingluck administration for each death in the protests was estimated based on each victim's loss of income.
