BANGKOK: Thaksin Shinawatra, Thailand’s former prime minister, has alleged that Sunday’s election was plagued with “irregularities”.

Thaksin, who lives in self-imposed exile, said the inconsistencies in the elections “worried” him, according to BBC.

Early poll results showed the pro-military Palang Pracha Rath Party (PPRP) gaining a larger share of the vote.

The country’s Election Commission said the official results will be released in May. (Agencies)
