Thailand’s red-shirt leaders demand release of colleagues

BANGKOK, Feb 27 — Seven key leaders of the anti-government movement of the United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD) released last week on Sunday demanded the release on bail of their colleagues who now remain in jail in the Thai capital and upcountry following a security operation that ended their mass protests about 10 months ago.

Natthawut Saikua, one of the UDD seven core leaders who were released last Tuesday on condition that they must not leave the country or incite their supporters to cause unrest, said his movement would this week start finding ways to assist their imprisoned colleagues by coordinating with the Justice Ministry’s Rights and Liberties Protection Department in releasing them on bail.
