The inadequate supervision created a bad image for the police and was regarded as misconduct under Royal Thai Police regulations, they said. Nine of them, including Ms Nuttaa, were sent to the Phaya Thai police station. They were charged with violating the junta’s order on political assembly and were released on bail on Thursday.
