The Court however maintained bail for other red leaders.

The ruling against Jatuporn came after prosecutors of the Department of Special Investigation filed a petition calling on the court to revoke bail for five red-shirt leaders charged with terrorism in connection with red-shirt demonstration in 2010.

The DSI alleged that the suspects violated bail conditions, which ban inciting political movement, in their press interviews and TV programmes. Their activities were considered as inciting unrest and defaming some key junta figures.

After examining evidence such as recording of TV programmes recordings and media interviews, the court decided to revoke the bail for only Jatuporn, as it consideried his speeches “inappropriate”.

The four others were Nattawut Saikua , Weng Tojirakarn, Veerakarn Musikapong, and Nisit Sinthupai of United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship. The court considered that their activities and statements constituted expression of opinions.

After the ruling, Jatuporn was brought to Bangkok Remand Prison for detention.
