Additional documents from the Foreign Ministry outlining a plot to eliminate former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra will be made public on Wednesday, when the government delivers its 12-months-in office report to the people, red-shirt leader Jatuporn Promphan said on Monday.

The Puea Thai party-list MP had earlier promised to reveal the documents yesterday.

Mr Jatuporn said it was not correct he had delayed his exposure of the evidence because the documents were unclear.

The new date was intended to counter the government's delivery of its first-year-in-office report on Dec 23.

He said the had none additional pages which clearly outlined Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya's suggested steps to be taken against Thaksin.

Mr Kasit had said earlier the documents do exist but contain only an assessment of the situation,

However, the United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship leader said they actually outline a "plot" to eliminate the fugitive former prime minister.

Mr Jatuporn last Friday leaked the first set of documents which contained an analysis of Thai-Cambodian relations and recommendations for future action in dealing with Cambodia. The documents were sent to Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva.

He said on Monday the additional documents he would reveal on Wednesday tell all about Mr Kasit's attitude towards Thaksin.
