Warrant out for protester

The Criminal Court on Tuesday approved an arrest warrant against another anti-government protester on a charge of intending to do harm to Her Majesty the Queen's liberty, according to the Royal Thai Police.

Suranat Paenprasert, a coordinator of the Active Youth group, had been at the rally about 5.30pm last Wednesday on Phitsanulok Road.

Mr Suranat was accused of breaching Section 110 of the Criminal Code by intending to harm Her Majesty's liberty, which carries a jail term between 16 years to life.

On that day, the royal motorcade of Her Majesty the Queen passed along the road.

The charge was the same as pressed against two people arrested earlier following the Oct 14 incident -- Bunkueanun Paothong, a university student, and Ekkachai Hongkangwan, a political activist.

The court has only so far granted the bail request of Mr Bunkueanun.
