Thai king fires royal guards for ‘adultery’ as purges continue
Purges, which come after royal consort was stripped of her titles, offer rare glimpse into the palace
Thailand’s king has sacked four royal guards, two of them for “adultery”, in a fresh wave of palace purges a week after his royal consort was stripped of all titles for “disloyalty”.
Thai King Maha Vajiralongkorn, 67, ordered the dismissal of two male guards from the “bedroom section”, the Royal Gazette announced late on Tuesday.
