A petition was lodged with the Criminal Court today (Tuesday) by Arnon Nampa, one of the 22 core Ratsadon leaders and followers currently being held on remand, demanding an inquiry into the suspicious conduct of a group of prison officers.

Arnon, who was at the Criminal Court this morning for a hearing related to a protest, told the court, in writing, about an unusual incident on Monday night in a cell at the Bangkok remand prison, where he and six other core Ratsadon leaders are being detained.

Arnon claims that a group of unidentified men came to the cell to escort other prisoners out of the prison, leaving seven of them in the cells.

Corrections Department claims officers wanted to separate Ratsadon detainees for COVID-19 screening

Thailand’s Corrections Department has issued a clarification, in response to a claim by Anon Nampa, one of the seven core Ratsadon leaders detained at Bangkok remand prison, that prison officers acted suspiciously in trying to separate some of them in the middle of the night.

The department said that, at about 11 pm Monday night, Mr. Veerakit Harnpripan, deputy director-general of the Corrections Department, accompanied by medics and nurses from the department’s hospital, visited the cell where the seven Ratsadon leaders were detained, with nine other detainees, in order to conduct COVID-19 tests.

The seven Ratsadon leaders are Arnon Nampa, Parit “Penguin” Chiwarak, Panupong Jadnok, alias Mike Rayong, Jatupat Boonpatthararaksa, alias Pai Daodin, Somyos Prueksakasemsook, Piyarat “Toto” Chongthep and Patiwat Saraiyaem.
