Yingluck supporters turn out in large numbers

The former premier on Friday will attend the final court hearing in the case stemming from her government’s rice-pledging scheme. Yingluck has been accused of negligence in the management of the controversial scheme, and could face a jail term if found guilty.
Eight witnesses would testify before the court in the final hearing.
The court is expected to schedule the closing statement and when it would rule on the case.
Scores of police officers were deployed at the court premises due to the crowd turnout.
