BANGKOK, June 24 (TNA) – Dozens of Thai pro-democracy
activists on Wednesday commemorated the 88th anniversary of the revolution that
brought an end to the absolute monarchy in 1932.
They held commemorative activities at the Democracy Monument
Wednesday morning in defiance of government warnings of COVID-19 threat and
social-distancing regulations.
Police placed no-entry signs at the monument but later
allowed the activists to hold the activities.
At these events, police officers were present to monitor the
activities deemed defying the state of emergency that the government has
declared since late March.
Security officers did not intervene or attempt to stop of
the activities. (TNA)
