Prime Minister Abhist Vejjajiva on Tuesday morning admitted he sent Panich Vikitsreth to the Thai-Cambodian border where the Democrat MP was arrested along with six other Thais.

Mr Abhisit said this before chairing the cabinet meeting to discuss ways of helping the Thais. He said details would be given to the press after the meeting.

The Democrat Party would also hold a meeting this afternoon to discuss this matter. Some of Bangkok MPs had expressed their wish to go to Cambodia to visit Mr Panich at the Prey Sar prison, he said.

Deputy Prime Minister Suthep Thaugsuban said the Thai side must exercise a lot of patience and adhere mainly to negotiations.
