Thai court orders ruling party dissolved
#post301
BANGKOK, Thailand (CNN) -- Thailand's Constitutional Court ordered the ruling People Power Party dissolved Tuesday for electoral fraud, banning Prime Minister Somchai Wongsawat and more than 30 party officials from politics for five years.

The ruling follows months of opposition protests, including a week-old siege of Bangkok's international airport and sparked angry counter-protests by Somchai's supporters outside the court.

The court also banned at least one of the PPP's ruling coalition partners, effectively dismantling the government over allegations of vote-rigging.

There was no immediate reaction from Somchai or his party to the ruling.

Demonstrators have occupied Thailand's Government House since August, forcing lawmakers to meet elsewhere.

They said Monday that they would end the sit-in and move to Suvarnabhumi international airport, where they have left flights grounded and countless passengers stranded since November 25.
