The Pathumwan District Court on Monday rejected a police request to detain protest leader Panusaya “Rung” Sithijirawattanakul for further questioning in two cases in which she is charged with violating the Public Assembly Act of 2015.
Ms Panusaya was a leader of two demonstrations on the skywalk over the Pathumwan intersection on June 5 and June 22 demanding justice for Wanchalerm Satsaksit, 37, a human right activist who took a political refuge in Cambodia. Mr Wanchalerm was reportedly abducted by a group of men from in front of a condominium in Phnom Penh.
