He also called on government officials, private sectors, the military staff to stop work and stop serving theThaksin regime tomorrow as the government has now lost its legitimacy to rule the country.
The ultimatum was revealed by the protest leader and televised live on state-run TV stations at 10.10 p.m.
Suthep claimed in the live TV broadcast that he met the prime minister at the presence of the commanders-in-chief of the three armed forces.
He told her before the three top brass of the armed forces of the need for the mass demonstration to uproot the Thaksin regime because of the tremendous damages it had done to the country.
The damages and the widespread corruption the regime had done to the country as well as her government’ s rejection of the legitimacy of the Constitutional Court’s ruling has enraged the people to the extent that they could not longer put up with the regime any longer, he said.
He then told the prime minister that dissolution of parliament and her resignation paving the way for new election could not resolve the underlying deep-rooted problem as bad politicians under the Thaksin regime could return again.
He said the problem could be resolved only when she returned the power to the people to form the people council and appoint a people government to rule the country under the true constitutional democracy.
He told the prime minister she would be gentlemanly-treated if she returned the power to the people, adding he also would be ready to face trial for leading this reform when it was finished.
He told the prime minister and the top brass the reason why he had to lead demonstrators to besiege the National Police Office, the Metropolitan Police Headquarters because he did not want the police to come out to harm the demonstrators.
The protest leader also revealed that at the meeting the military top brass have shown their stance to be on the side of the people.
The army chief Gen Prayuth Chan-ocha even said during the meeting that he did not want to see more people get killed and injured because the armed forces were with the country and with the people.
Suthep said he told the three commanders-in-chief that he had the strong determination in leading the reform for the nation and its young generations.
