After meeting with the police, Mr Chusak, also the Pheu Thai's legal expert, noted the police had acted unusually fast in seeking the Pheu Thai politicians' prosecution. Mr Phumtham, Pheu Thai's acting secretary-general, said the law was not being applied fairly or justly. He explained the Pheu Thai Party had nothing to do with its members speaking at the press conference as they were acting independently. On hearing the police warning, the party cut the number of speakers to three -- Mr Chusak, Mr Chaturon and Mr Watana. They included Pol Lt Gen Viroj, Mr Phumtham, Mr Noppadon and Mr Chaikasem.
