BANGKOK (The Nation/ANN): Prominent activist Jatupat “Pai Dao Din” Boonpattararaksa refused to back down as he attended court over protest-related charges on Wednesday (Sept 16), instead confirming he would join Saturday’s anti-government rally.

Jatupat and 15 other activist-leaders reported themselves to an attorney at Dusit Kwaeng Court in Bangkok this morning after being charged with sedition and other offences for participating in the Free Youth rally on July 18.
