Gotabaya Rajapaksa, the ousted former President of Sri Lanka, is currently staying at a hotel in Bangkok and is advised not to leave due to security reasons, foreign media claimed.
The former Sri Lankan President arrived in Bangkok with three other people on a chartered flight from Singapore at Don Mueang International Airport two days ago.
The name of the hotel is not disclosed to media and security officers in plain clothes are deployed for his security, according to reports.
Officials have asked the former leader to remain within the hotel during his stay in the country and the country’s Prime Minister noted that Rajapaksa would be allowed to enter Thailand on humanitarian grounds but would be advised to keep a low profile, reports added.
