The Grand Palace, across from which the protests are taking place
According to Bangkok Governor MR Sukhumbhand Paribatra, the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) does not support the current demonstrations at Sanam Luang. The governor warned that the participants are likely to face punishment if they do not vacate the site soon.
BMA officers will put out announcements that legal action will be undertaken if the Thai Patriots Network does not leave the area, Sukhumbhand said this Monday. The Nation reports that Sukhumbhand promised that the BMA would use legal instruments, rather than brute force, to disperse the protestors.
