Thai prime minister suspended over leaked phone call

Thai Prime Minister, Paetongtarn Shinawatra, has been suspended by the Constitutional Court amidst growing pressure to resign over a leaked phone call with former Cambodian leader Hun Sen. The court voted 7-2 to suspend her while they evaluate the case for her dismissal, and she has 15 days to present her defense. Paetongtarn remains in the cabinet as culture minister while the deputy PM takes over as acting leader, with her father, Thaksin Shinawatra, facing separate legal battles in a politically turbulent environment.
