Thailand's top court has suspended Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha from official duty while it decides whether he will be allowed to continue to govern beyond the country's 8-year prime ministerial term limit.
The unusual leadership reshuffle follows a ruling by the Constitutional Court of Thailand on Wednesday, which ordered Prayut to stand aside while it considers if he breached the eight-year term limit recently written into the constitution.
Prayut took the role of prime minister after a military coup in 2014 before winning a controversial general election in 2019.
