The Cross-Cultural Foundation has urged the Court of Justice to transfer all persons related to judge Khanakorn Pianchana’s supposed statement from their current posts and sought a comprehensive investigation into allegations of interference in the independence of a judge.

People on Saturday placed flowers in front of the Yala Provincial Court to show their support for Khanakorn Pianchana, a judge who allegedly tried to kill himself on Friday in the court premises.  A message that said “Return verdict to the judge, return justice to the people” was also placed among the flowers.
