Anti-government rally leaders resist COVID-19 testing, put others at risk

Wallop Nakbua, deputy permanent secretary for justice, said on Thursday that three detainees — Jatupat “Pai” Boonpattararaksa, Panupong “Mike” Jadnok and Piyarat “Toto” Chongthep — were moved from the Thon Buri Remand Prison to the Bangkok Remand Prison at 6.46pm on Monday as they requested.
