Nattawut Saikuar, a key leader of the United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship, which sided with the previous government that was toppled in the military takeover, was called in for talks with a representative of the junta.
Nattawut surrendered himself to the military at 1st Army Region headquarters in Bangkok at 9am Friday. He was released after about an hour and returned home.
The former deputy commerce minister said after the talks ended that he had had a frank discussion with NCPO representatives and that there were “neither threats nor a stern attitude” from the military officers.
He said they had exchanged views and had reached a conclusion on providing cooperation in order to “avoid confrontation and chaos” in the country.
