gunshot was fired at the government complex in Chaeng Wattana while Phra Buddha Issara was huddled in a meeting with election commissioner Somchai Srisutthiyakorn about giving up an office to the Election Commission.
The gunshot prompted several reporters who were waiting to cover the meeting to rush out to investigate. It was discovered that one rear tyre of a Mitsubishi car belong to a member of People’s Democratic Reform Committee in Pathum Thani was punctured apparently hit by the shot.
There were no police at the scene at the time of the shooting but a group of security guards and soldiers.
It was not known who fired the shot and from where. However, the incident did not affect the discussion between the monk and Mr Somchai.
