BANGKOK -(Dow Jones)- Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said Sunday the government may introduce a curfew, as deadly clashes between antigovernment protesters and armed troops in the Thai capital have left at least 24 dead since Thursday.
Abhisit told his weekend TV program that the Center for the Resolution of the Emergency Situation is currently meeting to consider a curfew, with a decision expected during the afternoon. He didn't elaborate on whether the curfew would be for just for Bangkok or other parts of the country.
