An anti-coup group calling itself "Pi Rab Khao (White Dove) 2006" Thursday asked Prime Minister Surayud Chulanont to sack Council for National Security chairman Gen Sonthi Boonyaratglin for allegedly having two registered marriages.

In a letter submitted to the premier's representative by leader Noparuj Vorachitwutthikul and several members, the group alleged that Sonthi had violated articles 137 and 157 of the criminal law by having two registered wives.

Noparuj said the Army chief had registered his marriage to his first wife, Sukanya, when he was a lieutenant, and later registered another marriage to his second wife, Piyada, while he was a captain.

"He now lives together with his two wives; we can prove it from many media [sources]," Noparuj said.
