Protest leader ‘Mind’ faces sedition charges

Pro-democracy activist Patsaravalee “Mind” Tanakitvibulpon went to Thungmahamek Police Station in Bangkok on Thursday morning in response to summons for leading protesters to the German Embassy on October 26.

Patsaravalee, who was accompanied by a lawyer from the Thai Lawyers for Human Rights, faced the charge of sedition and also underwent interrogation led by Bangkok police chief Pol Lt-General Pakapong Pongpetram.
The protester later told the press that she faces four charges, and one of them includes an arrest warrant. However, she said she was not worried about legal action being taken against her, because she knows it is part of the “government’s game”. She also insisted that her battle for democracy will continue unabated.
