Bloodshed might be inevitable: Chamlong
By The Nation
People’s Alliance for Democracy leader Chamlong Srimuang told the crowds on Friday at Government House he feared it was unavoidable for blood to be spilled.
Chamlong predicted his speech may be the last one or next before last since the outbreak of violence is looming.
He warned that PAD-led protesters will not allow the opposing crowds led by former deputy national police chief General Salang Bunnag to dislodge them from Government House.
He said the PAD is conducting a review whether non-violence remains an option under the circumstances, particularly when confronting with armed crowds from the Democratic Alliance Against Dictatorship.
He added the PAD would not allow the House to go ahead with the charter rewrite and that it would try to derail the planned debate on the issue scheduled for October 28. He did not say how the PAD would disrupt the debate to form the Constitution Drafting Assembly.
