The Court of Appeal has again rejected a request to temporarily release four pro-democracy protest leaders facing royal insult charges, saying there was no reason to change the previous ruling.
It was the third rejection of attempts to free the foursome, who face the prospect of months behind bars before their trials start.
Eight former leaders of the disbanded People's Democratic Reform Committee sentenced to jail by the Criminal Court were released from Bangkok Remand Prison on Friday after being allowed bail by the Appeal Court.
