PAD leaders and supporters face charges

Yellow shirt leaders and supporters are facing charges for the unlawful occupation of Government House and seizure of two Bangkok airports in 2008. The NPP's secretary-general, Suriyasai Katasila, has cried foul, claiming the actions of the PAD and yellow shirt supporters to be completely different to those of the red shirt movement, which he believes had supported armed militants.
