The eight former leaders of the disbanded People’s Democratic Reform Committee (PDRC) jailed this week by the Criminal Court, walked out of Bangkok Remand Prison on Friday afternoon after the Appeal Court granted them bail.
They had spent the two previous nights behind bars.
Their lawyer Sawat Charoenphon said the Appeal Court granted them bail on Friday morning because they had not attempted to flee while out on bail during their trial in the Criminal Court.
