Hunger-striking Thai democracy protest leader granted
bail
A prominent สล็อตxoทดลองเล่น Thai democracy protest leader facing royal defamation
charges was granted bail on Tuesday (May 11) amid deteriorating health following
a hunger strike that lasted more than 50 days.
Parit Chiwarak, who goes by the nickname "Penguin", had been remanded in custody
since March when authorities indicted him under Thailand's strict lese-majeste laws.
In late April he was transferred to hospital after losing 12 kilograms.
The university student faces 20 lese-majeste charges for his role in last year's
demonstrations against the Thai government, which called for reforms to the country's
monarchy.
On Tuesday a criminal court granted Parit bail.
"Parit has made a statement with free will that if he gets bail he will not carry out any
action to dishonour the monarchy and will not attend any activity causing unrest.
He will not leave the country unless the court gives permission," the court said.
Late on Tuesday night he left the Klong Prem maximum security prison in an ambulance,
accompanied by his mother, and wearing a t-shirt emblazoned with "monarchy reform".
He gave a three-fingered salute - a symbol of resistance - out the window of the vehicle,
which was expected to take him to a Bangkok hospital for further medical treatment.
Before his release he was hit with a further arrest warrant for a separate criminal charge,
but was granted bail. |
