Often seen at the wheel of one of his supercars, Thai ultra-royalist Tanat 'Nat' Thanakitamnuay became a well-known face at demonstrations that ushered in Thailand's 2014 coup.
Tanat "Nat" Thanakitamnuay, 29, known as "Hi-so Luk Nat", who was blinded in the right eye during clashes with riot police, participates in a protest over the government's handling of the coronavirus disease pandemic and demanding Thai Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha's resignation, in Bangkok, Thailand, August 28, 2021. Picture taken August 28, 2021.
He switched sides in part because of anger over the government's widely-criticised handling of the latest coronavirus outbreak, which has brought severe economic hardship as well as nearly 12,000 deaths. Defending the government's handling of the pandemic, Anucha Burapachaisri, deputy secretary to the prime minister, told Reuters that all necessary measures to contain the spread of infections had been taken.
He said he had now cut himself off from his family, while dabbling in the stock market and cryptocurrencies. Nat said his time as a politician with the pro-establishment Democrat Party had made him suspicious of all those proclaiming loyalty to the monarchy.
