Mukdahan court grants bail to 13 red shirts - The Nation

Mukdahan court grants bail to 13 red shirts

THE NATION June 27, 2012 1:00 am

The Mukdahan Provincial Court yesterday approved bail for 13 red shirts at Bt2 million each, said Narinpong Jinaphak, president of the Lawyers Association of Thailand.

These prisoners are among the 31 red shirts being detained at prisons in the Northeast provinces of Maha Sarakham, Udon Thani, Ubon Ratchathani and Mukdahan in connection with the unrest and riots stemming from the red-shirt street protests from March to May 2010.

The inmates were convicted of arson and trespassing on premises of state agencies in relation to people storming into provincial hall compounds and setting them ablaze.

Of the 13 men released by the Mukdahan Court, several have required treatment for mental illnesses, Narinpong said, adding that they were detained at Bangkok's Lak Si Temporary Detention Centre.

About 50 red shirts went to the detention centre to greet those released, but no red-shirt leaders were spotted there. Narinpong said the Justice Ministry provided the Bt26 million needed for the temporary release of the 13 men. This was part of the Bt43.8 million approved by the Cabinet for the Justice Fund, which is intended to assist poorer people in their court cases.

Narinpong said yesterday that more money might be required to fund the bail application of the remaining red shirts being detained for their involvement in criminal offences during the unrest. It was up to the Cabinet to decide whether additional money needs to be added to the Justice Fund, he added.

He said it was likely that the Criminal Court might lower the amount needed for the temporary release of the other red-shirt prisoners. Among them, nine are at the Maha Sarakham Prison, five at Udon Thani Prison and four at Ubon Ratchathani Prison.

Narinpong said that in a few days, the lawyers association would apply for the temporary release of 14 red shirts being detained at Bangkok's Lak Si Temporary Detention Centre.

Mukdahan court grants bail to 13 red shirts - The Nation

Well, considering this is from the Nation, lets ferret out the propaganda, shall we.

"...........in connection with the unrest and riots stemming from the red-shirt street protests

I see. Protesting the price of eggs right.

This damn media works overtime avoiding a political context for R'song.

They wouldn't "say shit of their mouth was full of it" as I have said before.

[QUOTE=""]"..........Of the 13 men released by the Mukdahan Court, several have required treatment for mental illnesses, Narinpong [/QUOTE]

First of all, this Narinpong is from the Lawyers Association of Thailand - a bastion of PADite and Amart intrigue.

The Amart have an agenda of denigrating those who stood up to their coupist shenanigans. Characterizing them as anarchists, terrorists, and in this case, mentally ill...............................all just because they did not sanction their coup.

This is along the same MO as their criminalization of Thaksin for winning too many elections.

A very established modus operandi for these people.

About 50 red shirts went to the detention centre to greet those released, but no red-shirt leaders were spotted there

Taking a shot at the leaders of anti-coupists.

And you wonder if this idiot is a PADite?........wonder no more.

".....more money might be required to fund the bail application of the remaining red shirts being detained for their involvement in criminal offences during the unrest.

The operative propaganda shit here is the terms "criminal" and "unrest".

Removing the political context and describing opposition to their coup in their own propagandistic manner.

But thanks for the photo's SD.

Appreciate it.

It is nice to see the government working towards ensuring that rich or poor, people have the same access to the law and justice. Mooham the new gold standard in thai justice.

Nine reds released on bail

Nine red-shirts of the United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship were released from the Lak Si temporary prison on Monday morning after a request for their release on bail was approved by the Supreme Court.

The nine, who were arrested for political unrest in Maha Sarakham province in May 2010, were each released on one million baht bail under the condition that they must not travel out of the country.

They were greeted on being freed by about 100 red-shirts led by Tida Thawornseth, the UDD chair, and Pheu Thai list MP Weng Tojirakan.

Ms Tida said the temporary release, although long awaited, was a sign that more red-shirts being detained on politically related charges would be given the right to fight the cases against them.
