Phetchaburi provincial court freed 22 Ban Bang Kloi villagers without bail on Sunday, on the condition that they must not return to the Jai Paendin area, in Kaeng Krachan national park, from where they were evicted by park officials, or enter the park area without prior permission from park officials.

 

Mr. Suriyan Hongvilai, spokesman of the Court of Justice, explained that the conditional release, without the requirement of a bail, is a new measure, introduced by the Thai judiciary, to allow suspects or defendants to be temporarily released on their own recognisance.

 

The 22 ethnic Karen villagers have, however, been placed under the supervision of the headman of Village One, of Huey Mae Priang sub district in Kaeng Krachan district, to make sure that they strictly abide by the court’s conditions.
