Red-shirt group rallies against charter court judge
Play
Sornrak Malaithong, spokesperson for the Radio for Democracy Network (RDN), led a group of red-shirt protesters to rally against Constitutional Court judge Boonsong Kulbupar yesterday.
They accuse Boonsong of abusing his power by granting his son – who worked as his secretary – paid leave to study abroad. Sornrak said the rally would continue until Boonsong stepped down.
Sornrak’s rally is the third protest outside the court. A group led by Sa-ngiam Samranrat, a political appointee at the Prime Minister’s Secretariat, is rallying at the Chaeng Wattana Road entrance of the court compound, while the Dharma Yatra group led by Samarn Sri-ngam is gathered on the lawn in the complex.
Some 30 police officers have been deployed to ensure security, and they have set up metal barriers between the groups.
