Secret flight plans

An air traffic controller is now imprisoned in Cambodia for allegedly revealing the details of exiled Thai ex prime minister Thaksin Shiniwatra's private flight to Cambodia from Dubai recently.

Can I appeal to anyone on this site with access to the flight plan to publish it on line.

As a private pilot of 30 years with lots of long distance flying I have to say I have never had a problem with flight plans being deemed private or secret.

Sivarak Chutipong, an employee of Cambodia Air Traffic Service, a Thai company, was arrested on charges of supplying state secrets - details of ousted premier Thaksin Shinawatra's flight schedule - to the Thai embassy when Thaksin visited Phnom Penh earlier this month.

Mr Sivarak is being detained at Prey Sar prison in Phnom Penh on spying charges.

Prison conditions in Cambodia are not good and I appeal for any help or assistance or suggestions to get him released.It would also help if we can publish any general flights plans out of Dubai or in to Phnom Penh to prove these are not secret.

It would help to have a picture of Thaksins aircraft published so that it can not be deemed a state secret.

Can I appeal to mods to keep this post in rumours and news?
