BANGKOK, Oct. 29 (UPI) -- Cambodia says it will agree to Thailand's request to investigate allegations fugitive Red Shirt leaders wanted on arrest warrants are hiding in Cambodia.
Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen agreed to Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva's request after the two met during the 17th ASEAN Summit and Related Summits being held in Hanoi, Vietnam, the Bangkok Post reported Friday.
"Yes, we discussed about this matter in principle," Abhisit said after the 15-minute meeting.
Thailand wants Cambodian authorities to arrest fugitive Red Shirt leaders of the anti-government United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship.
Key Red Shirt leaders allegedly fled to Cambodia after the government used troops to end the long protests in Bangkok May 19.
Abhisit said the Cambodian prime minister assured him Cambodia was ready to support Thai authorities if they make an official request.
