PAD ordered to pay US$17 million damage for Bangkok airports seizure

The Civil Court on Friday ordered the 13 leaders of the People’s Alliance for Democracy to pay US$17 million (Bt522 million) damage in connection with the seizure of Suvarnabhumi and Don Mueang airports in 2008.

The list of PAD leaders liable for damage payment included Chamlong Srimuang and Sondhi Limthongkul.

In the street protests to oust the Somchai Wongsawat government, the PAD rallied at the two Bangkok airports resulting in the shut-down of air traffic.
