Mr Jatuporn, the UDD chairman, shrugged off the move, saying that the threat would not change the UDD's standpoint in its to fight for democracy. He made a comparison between the UDD and two other political groups - the People's Alliance for Democracy (PAD) and the People's Democratic Reform Commitee (PDRC). "It has nothing to do with PAD's political rallies," said Mr Jatuporn.
