"Leaders of the anti-coup rallies yesterday shrugged off the arrest warrants issued for them and challenged police to capture them to face charges of engineering Sunday's protest at Si Sao Thewes, which culminated in violence. . .

Eight of them face arrest warrants on several counts, including illegal assembly, anti-government movements, defying police orders and attacking police, damaging property and shouting insults. . .Police were seeking arrest warrants for the eight leaders and other supporters who were caught on tape in their acts on Sunday, Pol Gen Seripisuth said. . .

Pol Gen Seripisuth defended the police decision to use force to stop the protest in front of Gen Prem's residence because protesters attacked police first. On Sunday night, police arrested six suspects from the clashes. . .

They were being detained at Thung Song Hong and Bang Khen police stations and police refused to release them on bail. They were initially charged with illegal assembly and resisting arrest, and attacking police."
