The judges voted unanimously on Tuesday to take the petition accusing her of a breach of ethics, and voted seven to two to suspend her from duty as a prime minister.

The court gave Shinawatra 15 days to give evidence to support her case.

Shinawatra has faced growing dissatisfaction over her handling of the latest border dispute with Cambodia, involving an armed confrontation on May 28 in which one Cambodian soldier was killed.

The leaked phone call while she engaged in diplomacy over the border dispute set off a string of complaints and public protests.

Paetongtarn was the third prime minister in her family, after her father, Thaksin Shinawatra, a telecom billionaire who has been one of Thailand’s top political operators, and her aunt, Yingluck Shinawatra, who was the country’s first female prime minister.

Thaksin was ousted by a military coup in 2006 and Yingluck by a court ruling in 2014.

There was no immediate reaction from Paetongtarm after the court order.

She said on Monday that she would accept and follow the process although she didn’t want to see her work interrupted.

It’s expected that Deputy Prime Minister Suriya Jungrungruangkit will become the acting prime minister following Shinawatra’s suspension, although there’s still no official confirmation.

Earlier on Tuesday, King Maha Vajiralongkorn had endorsed a cabinet reshuffle forced when a major party left Shinawatra’s coalition government over the leaked phone call.

The reshuffle replaced former deputy prime minister Anutin Charvirakul, leader of the Bhumjaithai Party, which had held several Cabinet positions in her government.

Shinawatra took the position of culture minister in addition to prime minister in the new cabinet.

She said she wanted to promote Thai culture on a global scale.

It’s unclear if she can take the oath to remain in that role.

Shinawatra also faces investigations over an alleged breach of ethics by the Office of the National Anti-Corruption Commission, whose decision could also lead to her removal.

The Constitutional Court last year removed her predecessor over a breach of ethics. Thailand’s courts, especially the Constitutional Court, are viewed as a bulwark of the royalist establishment, which has used them and nominally independent agencies such as the Election Commission to cripple or sink political opponents.

Outrage over the call mostly revolved around Shinawatra’s comments toward an outspoken regional army commander and her perceived attempts to appease Cambodian Senate President Hun Sen to ease tensions at the border.

Thousands of conservative, nationalist-leaning protesters rallied in central Bangkok on Saturday to demand Shinawatra’s resignation.
