PAD may hold massive rally on Friday despite Kongsak's threat
The People's Alliance for Democracy will hold a massive rally on Friday if police miss the seven-day deadline set by the
PAD for police to arrest those who attacked anti-Thaksin protesters.
PAD coordinator
Suriyasai Katasila said if police failed to make any progress in the case of attacks against anti-Thaksin protesters by Friday, the
PAD would definitely hold a massive rally.
Earlier the day, caretaker Interior Minister Kongsak Wantana said the
PAD would be deemed breaking the election law if they hold any demonstration against caretaker Prime Minister
Thaksin Shinawatra and the Thai Rak Thai Party.
But Suriyasai said the people had their constitutional rights to demonstrate.
He said the
PAD also held rallies before the April 2 election and the then Election Commission did not consider that the
PAD had violated the laws.
Suriyasai said if Kongsak ordered arrests of
PAD members for holding rallies, the
PAD would lodge a complaint to the Administrative Court.
