The former leader served eight months of a one-year sentence for corruption before he was released on parole last month

The Department of Corrections said the ex-leader was required to wear an electronic monitoring device as a condition of his release.

Justice Minister Rutthapon Naowarat said on Wednesday that Thaksin was among those eligible for the latest royal clemency measure.

“He is on the list,” Rutthapon told reporters at a royal ceremony.

“He had less than one year remaining of his sentence.”
