Police call up 11 activists

The 11 have been charged with six criminal offences including trespassing and coercion. They are required to meet police next Tuesday at 9.30am at the Metropolitan Police Bureau to acknowledge the offences. They will face arrest if they fail to show up, said deputy MPB chief Jate Mongkholhatthee.

Jate said the 11 were entitled to their opinion and freedom of expression under the new constitution, but their intrusion onto government property and disruption of the NLA session were criminal offences and a violation of other people's rights.

Among the 11 are Media Reform Campaign head Supinya Klangnarong, Customers' Network leader Saree Ongsomwang and state enterprise labour union leaders Sawit Kaewwan and Amnart Phalamee.
