The junta reportedly instructed the Thai Foreign Ministry to revoke the Thai passport of Pavin Chachavalpongpun, an anti-coup well-known Thai scholar, who is now teaching at Kyoto University, Japan.
The cancellation of Pavin's passport is due to his failure to report himself to the junta's 's National Council for Peace and Order (NCPO) after he was ordered to summon twice. The authorities later issued an arrest warrant against him on 13 June.
Pavin is now an associate professor at the Center for Southeast Asian Studies, Kyoto University.
