Thailand's convicted former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra was released from Bangkok's Klong Prem Central Prison on Monday after being allowed to complete the remaining four months of his one-year sentence on parole.

Thaksin made a public appearance at around 07:40 local time, reuniting with family members in front of the prison, where he had served two-thirds of his sentence required by standard parole criteria.

He and his family paid tribute to the Thai flag, expressed gratitude to the supporters, and then left by car at around 07:55 local time.

As he departed to report to a Bangkok probation office, crowds of supporters wearing red shirts greeted the former prime minister as they gathered outside the prison compound under tight police security.

Thaksin, now 76 years old, served twice as prime minister of the Southeast Asian nation, winning elections in 2001 and 2005. A military coup in 2006 cut short his second term, and he went into self-imposed exile in 2008.
