Da Torpedo bail rejected

The Appeals Court on Friday confirmed the lower court's decision to reject the bail application of lese majeste convict Daranee Chanchoengsilapakul, aka Da Torpedo, on grounds for flight risk.

 

The high court’s decision said Daranee might flee in the face of her serious charges and penalties. Daranee applied for her temporary release pending the appellate review on her 2011 conviction and sentencing to serve 15 years in jail.
Daranee, anti-coup activist, was arrested for royal insult in 2008 after joining a Sanam Luang rally organised by the red shirts.
