BANGKOK: A Thai court jailed 11 former “Red Shirts” protest leaders on Tuesday (Oct 7) over their role in 2010 anti-government demonstrations which culminated in an army crackdown that left scores dead.

The “Red Shirts”, supporters of former premier Thaksin Shinawatra, were found guilty of violating state of emergency rules imposed during the protests, which sought to oust then-prime minister Abhisit Vejjajiva.
