Human rights lawyer and prominent pro-democracy activist, Anon Nampa, has called on the Criminal Court to investigate alleged attempts to remove 2 detained activists from their cells at Bangkok Remand Prison. Anon says the suspicious activity took place on Monday night, with a group of unidentified men trying 3 times to remove the activists, telling them they needed to be taken for Covid-19 testing. The last attempt took place at 2am.
Anon has appealed in writing to the Criminal Court to investigate the matter. He says the men first removed other detainees from the prison, leaving him and 6 other pro-democracy activists in their cells. They are Parit “Penguin” Chiwarak, Piyarat “Toto” Chongthep, Patiwat Saraiyaem, Somyos Prueksakasemsook, Panupong Jadnok, also known as “Mike Rayong”, and Chatupat Boonpatthararaksa, aka, “Pai Dao Din”.
