[Karee 4,190]

Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra went on TV on Thursday to issue an urgent plea to all groups of demonstrators to stop their protests, saying the government has already aborted the amnesty effort.

She also promised that her government would do nothing that would pressure His Majesty the King.

Yingluck said the House of Representatives had voted Thursday afternoon to remove all the pending amnesty and reconciliation bills from the House agenda.

"All sides have made clear their intention to halt the amnesty process," she said.

She said the people should not believe rumours and should use their judgement to consider information from all sides so that the country can move forward.

She also said the government would not use force against the protesters and would not use troops to control the situation. Her government would use only the police to keep law and order.

She asked the protesters to believe that the government would not break its promise, adding that they should go home as the country has already suffered a lot.

It was Yingluck's third urgent statement this week. He first statement was made Tuesday and the second one on Wednesday.

She made the announcement Thursday after holding a meeting with security agencies at the Government House.
