Police want trials for two red-shirt supporters

Nang Lerng police Friday recommended trying a Chulalongkorn University lecturer and a red-shirt journalist on charges related to the violations of emergency rule.
In their report submitted for prosecution review, police said history lecturer Suthachai Yimprasert and journalist Somyos Prueksakasemsuk had violated the state of emergency by leading a public assembly of more than five people "with the aim to incite disturbances".
The incident happened on May 21 at the office of the Ban Lek Thi 111 Foundation, set up by 111 banned Thai Rak Thai Party executives. The two suspects are accused of trying to rally people to act in defiance of the authorities in the face of the violent end of the red-shirt rally, which took place on May 19.
Public prosecutors are expected to decide whether to indict and try the two on October 28.
