**Pressure is mounting on Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva in the wake of Saturday’s deadly clashes between troops and protesters.**Thailand’s army chief has called for parliament to be dissolved, apparently echoing protesters’ calls for polls.
The Election Commission, meanwhile, has ruled that there is enough evidence to charge Mr Abhisit’s party over illegal donations.
Mr Abhisit maintains that his coalition and the military remain united.
The red-shirt anti-government protesters have been camped out in Bangkok for a month.
They say Mr Abhisit’s government is illegitimate and have vowed not to leave until fresh elections are called.
Clashes between the security forces and the red-shirts on Saturday left 21 people dead and more than 800 injured.This article is from the BBC News website. © British Broadcasting Corporation, The BBC is not responsible for the content of external internet sites.
