Convicted former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra denied as groundless a report that he had been expelled from the United Arab Emirates and was heading to Siem Reap in Cambodia yesterday.

He said on his Twitter page about 2am on Saturday that he is still staying in Dubai but will later today go to Europe to meet his two daughters.

He said his daughters, Pinthongta and Paethongtan, had gone to Germany to see a hotel sales exhibition.

The fugitive ex-premier had earlier tweeted his thanks to all red-shirts from the Northeast who had late Friday night gathered in Nakhon Ratchasima before beginning their journey to Bangkok.

He also gave morale support to the red-shirts in the North who were gathering in Nakhon Sawan before moving to the capital.
