Bangkok: Thailand Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha ended his press conference by spraying hand sanitiser on reporters asking him tricky questions on Tuesday.
Prayuth became frustrated when he was asked about a list of potential candidates for vacant cabinet posts after three of his ministers were jailed last week for insurrection during protests seven years ago. He told reporters to mind their own business.

Thailand Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha sprayed reporters with disinfectant during a weekly press conference in Bangkok Tuesday, The Associated Press reported.
Prayuth, a former army commander who is known for being unpredictable, sprayed reporters seated in the front-row after taking questions in the press conference, the AP reported.
The Thailand prime minister was reportedly irritated at one of the questions regarding a potential cabinet change and walked away after spraying the journalists.
Prayuth overthrew Thailand’s elected government during a 2014 coup, the AP reported. The prime minister has engaged in other press conference antics, including stroking a reporter’s ear while speaking to a group of reporters, and throwing a banana peel towards camera operators.
