Mission Implausible: Chalerm announces he will arrest Suthep in disguise

Thirty-five days after announcing his f-ing return to take protest figurehead Suthep Thaugsuban into custody, Chalerm Yubamrung said today he will move forward to a bold plan to capture the former deputy prime minister: He’ll do it himself, wearing a disguise.

The labor minister who now heads the government’s crisis team said he’d hide under a fake moustache, sunglasses and hat to sneak into a protest site with a group of cops to apprehend the Man with the Golden Whistle. 

Somehow he will do this, he explained, without tussling with Suthep’s bodyguards, which are believed to be armed, Thai PBS reported.
