Former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra has returned to Thailand after 15 years in exile, hours ahead of a vote that determines who will be the country’s next leader.

Mr Shinawatra was immediately taken to the Supreme Court where he was handed an eight-year prison sentence, and then to Bangkok Remand Prison. No-one expects him to stay in custody long.
