I find it hard to believe he'll spend a day inside.

Will he now be out on appeal or will he really go to the monkey house?

K. Jatuporn will look much better in an orange shirt

[animatic]

Well light the torches and rampage, the mouth is silenced.

Hard to believe, but then again he knew no sense of moderation and hung himself on his own petard. So one other, Nisit wit, goes with him, and so far other less vitreous voices are still free.

Will this be the good excuse for reds to go over the edge?

If so then most Thais will notice and vote accordingly.

This thread will no doubt fill up to the brim with New Members....

Bail revoked for two reds, Jatuporn and Nisit

By The Nation

The Criminal Court on Thursday ruled to send two red-shirt leaders, Jatuporn Promphan and Nisit Sinthuprai, back to the remand cell on grounds for violating their bail condition.

Jatuporn, a Pheu Thai Party list candidate seeking reelection bid, is expected to campaign from his cell. The defence plans to file an appeal but the verdict would be immediately enforce pending the appellate review.

Based on the prosecution writ, the nine red-shirt leaders were involved in making offensive remarks against the monarchy in the April 10 speech designed to incite the crowds, violating the bail condition.

In testifying in his defence on Monday, Jatuporn said he would take the full accountability for his remarks and that he pleaded for the court not to punish the other eight leaders who just appeared on the rally stage without commenting.

In the court's ruling, seven red-shirt leaders would still enjoy their freedom pending trial on terrorism charges in connection with the last year's riots.

I can't imagine the wheels of justice will be terribly swift, since he has repeated thumbed his nose at them for years on end.

about time the stopped him, free speech okay, but his went way beyond that

Jatuporn, a Pheu Thai Party list candidate seeking reelection bid, is expected to campaign from his cell.

This raises the opportunity to ask at least a dozen commissions and courts if and how a jailed person can or may campaign. Like when k. Kokaew was made to stand for PTP last year. Only this time taking things a bit more serious

Jatuporn is on the party list isn't he? So he won't need to do much campaigning.

Two Thai 'Red Shirt' leaders jailed

BANGKOK, May 12, 2011 (AFP) - Two leaders of Thailand's "Red Shirt" protest movement, including an opposition politician, were sent to jail Thursday on terrorism charges after a court revoked their bail.

The Criminal Court ruled that Jatuporn Prompan and Nisit Sinthuprai violated the terms of their freedom with remarks they made about the revered monarchy at a rally in the capital last month.

The comments "might cause confusion among people which could create trouble in the country", the judge said.

The royal family is an extremely sensitive subject in the politically divided nation. Insulting the monarchy is punishable by up to 15 years in jail.

The move comes ahead of a general election set for July 3, and a week before the first anniversary of the end of the Red Shirts' mass rally in the capital, which sparked the country's worst political violence in decades.

Deputy prime minister Suthep Thaugsuban, who oversees national security, welcomed the ruling.

"It's in line with judicial procedures and must be respected because they could not comply with the bail conditions," he said.

More than 90 people, mostly civilians, died in a series of street clashes between Red Shirt protesters and troops who stormed the movement's fortified encampment in Bangkok firing live ammunition.

Jatuporn, a Puea Thai party candidate seeking re-election in the upcoming election, had enjoyed parliamentary immunity until the lower house was dissolved this week.

Seven other senior members of the red-clad movement were released on bail in February after they spent nine months in detention. A date for their trial has not yet been set.

The mainly rural, working class Reds are broadly loyal to fugitive former premier Thaksin Shinawatra, who was ousted in a military coup in 2006 and lives overseas to avoid a jail sentence for corruption imposed in absentia.

About 200 Red Shirt supporters gathered at the court on Thursday. Some sat on the road after the ruling in an unsuccessful attempt to prevent a prison truck taking Jatuporn to jail.

"We respect the court's decision. We will seek their bail and appeal the order. The ruling will not affect our plans for the one-year anniversary next week," said another Red Shirt leader, Nattawut Saikuar.

Court revokes bail for key Red Shirt leaders

BANGKOK, May 12 - Thailand's Criminal Court on Thursday revoked bail for key Red Shirt leaders Jatuporn Prompan and Nisit Sinthuprai as requested by the Department of Investigation (DSI) after the two made inappropriate remarks regarding the country's revered monarchy on the group's rally stage last month.

The court decision came following the DSI's earlier requests seeking to withdraw bail for nine United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD) leaders following their remarks and participation on the Red Shirt rally stage on April 10 to mark the deadly clashes between the protesters and troops.

Mr Jatuporn was accused of insulting monarchy in his obvious remarks on the UDD stage.

The nine leaders are Natthawut Saikua, Weng Tojirakan, Korkaew Pikulthong, Kwanchai Praipana, Yoswasris Chuklom, Nisit Sinthuprai, Wiphuthalaeng Pattanaphumthai, Veera or Veerakan Musikapong and Jatuporn Prompan.

All have been charged of terrorism for their alleged role in last year's violent demonstrations from March to May and have been released on bail with condition that they not leave the country, incite unrest or participate in any political demonstrations.

The court said Thursday that it withdrew bail for Mr Jatuporn and Mr Nisit as their speeches are likely to cause confusion among the public, leading to possible disorder in the country, but dismissed the complaints regarding the other seven leaders as there is insufficient evidence indicating that they had breached the bail conditions.

As soon as the court read its ruling, court officials immediately detained the two UDD leaders and took them to Bangkok Remand Prison amid tight security provided by seven companies of metropolitan police.

Mr Jatuporn protested, however, saying he has not breached the court's bail conditions and will appeal the court ruling.

Regarding the election candidacy registration, the former Puea Thai MP said it depends on the consideration of the party but he is still on the Puea Thai party list of candidates and has not been convicted.

Another UDD leader, Mr Natthawut, commented that the group's lawyer will appeal the court ruling and pose the Bt600,000 bail bond (US$20,000) for each detainee, adding that Mr Jatuporn did not violate the bail condition which banned only speeches regarding terrorism, but said he only addressed about the general situation of the country on the rally stage.

Apparently, they are already out on bail, appealing the ruling for the charges that they plead guilty on.

If you see it, they will have to kill you.

Basically, no one can mention what was actually said, because that would mean that they would be charged under LM laws.
