PHUKET: -- A total of twelve sea gypsies and human rights activists have been summoned by the 41st Military Circle for questioning about an on-going land dispute between Baron World Trade Company and a sea gypsy community in Rawai.

An official letter, issued on April 20, was sent to Rawai sea gypsy community leader Ngeem Damrongkaset. It summoned nine sea gypsies and three activists before the 41st Military Circle in Nakhon Si Thammarat today. However, that summons was postponed to May 10.

The letter stated that the 12 individuals took part in a demonstration in Rawai on January 27, which was in defiance of the National Council for Peace and Order’s (NCPO’s) ban on political congregations.
