Thaksin? Was he the City fella who got locked up and the first owner to bring the fit and proper test into the spotlight? My word. This could be an amazing watch for us outsiders.
Thaksin Shinawatra was Prime Minister of Thailand before he owned city. The implication was he bought them with basically embezzled Thai funds.
I used to see him for a few years after he sold city eating at a thai fast food place in Dubai a dubai shopping mall, quite surreal.
At the time he was unable to go back to Thailand. Not sure of his current status.
