The Court of Appeals on Thursday found eight red-shirt leaders guilty for torching a Bangkok Bank branch in Khon Kaen in connection with the political disturbances in 2010.
The high court sentenced the eight to serve a jail term ranging from half a year to one year and six months and imposed a fine of Bt29 million for property damage.
The prosecution of the eight focused on arson attack against the bank as the local red shirts had become unruly following the crowd dispersal at Ratchaprasong intersection in Bangkok on May 19, 2010.
