Arnon, Parit deny charges they have been hit with in Phayao
Human-rights lawyer Arnon Nampa and protest leader Parit “Penguin” Chiwarak showed up at Phayao’s Mae Ka Police Station on Sunday to hear charges for holding an illegal political rally in the province on July 27.
They were accused of violating the state of emergency by organising the protest – a charge they both deny. Arnon and Parit have also said they will produce documents to prove their innocence and will only testify in court.
The duo are scheduled to visit the station again on November 24.
