 A Thai military spokesman, who gave his name as Colonel Veerachon, told Al Jazeera that all those who had reported to the base had been taken into detention. "We are looking after them very well. They are all under detention. We want them to talk and give them some time to relax. They are not together at the moment," he said.However, he could not confirm their locations.The Reuters news agency quoted another senior military official as saying Yingluck's sister and brother-in-law were among those being held. The two relatives have held top political posts. "We will do so for not more than week, that would be too long. We just need to organise matters in the country first," said the officer.
